I wish I had more time and inspiration for taking pictures with my camera.

The flower selection this year sucks. I need to experiment more with my dslr but I don't have many opportunities as I had last year. All of the nurseries in the area, have greatly reduced selection and varieties of plants this year. It's not as exciting going out to see what's new at certain ones when they don't have anything different everytime I go. Stupid economy... Sigh... I'm not even inspired to paint anything either. I need more color nature wise.... Whine whine whine...

If anyone has any hints or tips concerning the pics I've taken so far with my DSLR, please help me. I would love some pointers.
