Hi there, here a passionate of photography since 2008. I took photos until 2019, after that period i’ve “paused” my passio for for several reasons.
During ten years i’ve tried basically 2 type of photography: street photography (but i live far away from city) and landscape photography (i live near mountains, lake etc). (here some of my images: https://www.flickr.com/photos/devmat/)
I’m looking to “reconnect” my mind with photography and spend time for a progect to re-train my eyes to take images.
An idea is to take not “single” images but take a “series” of photo.
I’ve some ideas but: anyone suggest me some links to take inspirations or to see similar project?
Thanks

Well, you aren’t going to advance your cause by taking no pictures.
Simply get out and start using your camera - landscape, macro, abstract. Don’t stop until you feel inspired again.
Document your life from the time you get up, as you drive to the store, until you go to sleep.
Find themes - patterns, textures, shadows, layers. Send the files out for a pile of prints to be made, stare at your choices and habits.
There’s an old saying… “A body in motion, stays in motion…” and I think it applies to cameras and photography as well.
I enjoy watching documentaries on photographers. Doesn’t matter who it is, or the type of work they do really. But to see what they’re doing, their process, why they’re doing it and how they got there can be helpful. The way some artists can talk about their work sparks creating something to me at least. It’s a good reminder that a project can take a long time to complete, too.
This short doc on Paul Graham is a good example.
A recent one on Jill freedman made me want to get out and shoot. She’s a badass.
