like the violin

It worries me a great deal that I have stopped photographing. I took some pictures last week when we were away, but not many, and none that I like (I think - I haven't even put them on the computer yet ...) I don't know why. I just don't bring the camera. Is that enough reason? And if that's the reason, why don't I bring it? Last year I'd go nowhere without it, everything was worth keeping, documenting, showing - and everything was fun to photograph, in the moment, even if it didn't turn out "good" (whatever that means). And even if I remember to bring it nowadays, I carry it around all day without taking it up. How can this be? I love that little darling and want to use it. Any ideas or advice on how to start photographing again? What to think, what to do?

Anyways, I am worried about that, but I am even more happy - that I have started art journaing again. (The collages from above are from May, I haven't gotten around to scanning the new ones yet.) It's such a great relief and I can feel it almost physically how draining it is to not create, if I haven't done anything creative during a whole day. So I'm not going to write anything else here but just simply turn the computer off and work some on my photo album, while I've got the creative juices flowing (seeing as I am about five years behind on them, that could be good).
