After reviewing the photos in my inspiration file, I had a difficult time narrowing down the elements my favorite photos have. I noticed that some of them have more than one element. I am definitely drawn towards beautiful light, color and no color - and I noticed that many photos I am drawn to have people in them, doing just ordinary things. I also love photos of places. I am drawn towards windows and reflections in them. Here are a few examples:
(1) Light, Movement and Emotion - I just love this photo, this boy is about to do "flips" (somersaults) down Beale Street in Memphis, I love the light on him, the tip bucket, his concentration and grace, to me he looks like a ballet dancer.

You beautifully capture landscapes and people. It makes me want to see more, know more :) I am drawn to window fronts too - often so colorful. All of your images are lovely.
Your pictures do seem to tell a story. I really love the 'El Hombre' shot - the lovely strong colours and the man sitting relaxing - just wonderful.
All your images have a story to tell, i enjoyed your post & the variety of scenes in your images
Oh, lovely! You definitely have an eye for story, capturing moments of people in the midst of something that leads me to want to know more. Great job in pulling out the details of your eye. I so enjoyed seeing what you found!
I love the idea of creating an imaginary story with pictures. The Elevator Man photo really drew my eye with its contrast in colors, strong lines, and use of light to draw focus on the Elevator Man. Your intention was to create a story, and I immediately started imagining one. Nicely done!
You definitely love the stories that life tells! This angle really adds interest for the viewer. I appreciate your use of rich color. Love the Elevator Man capture - just wonderful!
