Vatican Museum Stairs

Another shot from last year, this time the Vatican Museum exit spiral stairs in the form of a double helix.

I did take this other photo but I prefer the one above as it shows movement down the stairs.

Stop Recording Tuesday, Apr 17 2007 

Since I have brought my 400D I have tried to take more photos, everytime I come back from a “photo shoot” I have reviewed my photos and there has been very few worthy to publish on the blog.

The trouble is I can not seem to get out of the frame of mind of taking photos as if I was recording history or taking tourist photos.  If any one has any advice on how to change my mindset it would be appreciated.

I have looked at other photoblogs trying to get inspiration from other photographers.  There seems to be a lot of blogs where people have “photoshopped” there pictures and that is something I have avoided especially as I have very little experience in using photoshop.

Any advice would be gratefully received.
