John,
I haven't run into that problem, my camera goes with me
wherever I go, literally! I also have 2 small children that are
getting pretty used the being in front of a camera! I also enjoy
landscape and animals which is pretty easy to find, even
in Columbus, Ohio. I head out to the Zoo constantly!
OR, maybe your thinking a little deeper when you say
"meaningful"? I think right now I'm just absorbed in trying
to learn the art of photography or should I say the technical
aspect. I'm just so damn happy when a picture turns out the
way I meant it to turn out<g>!
Thanks,
Kris

I heartily agree. Collecting Olympus gear is easy, we're only limited by
our
wallets. Getting the inspiration to take meaningful pictures that have
something to say is the hard part. I know it's a constant struggle for me.
Without meaningful output, we're just camera collectors. Sort of like Lieca
users. It was a joke, no flames please!!
