With Scott, STM, being in AZ and seeing his photos, I have realized that familiarity can become a negative factor for the creativity of photographers.  I have lived in the same area for the majority of my life.  The cactus and mountains are pretty, but I have become so accustomed to seeing them that I see something that could make a good picture, but figure I can get it anytime.  I find myself wanting to go other places to photograph, but ignore what I have around me.  I need to learn to see the beauty in the things I see every day.  Have any of you had or realized that you may have fallen into the same trap?</blockquote>
