When you take a photograph, what are your trying to record?  The details of a place you enjoy?  A bit of personal history; the who and what and when of an event?  Are you trying to freeze an image for yourself or for someone else?  Try this…. For one day, take photographs of things that make you smile. After two or three days, look at the photographs and ask yourself what made you smile when you looked at what was in front of you.
