Daily, I can seek and find inspiration in my surrounding people,
buildings, nature, art, etc. All I have to do is turn on music I want
for the mood I'm looking for, pick up a book, browse online, take a
walk.
But what really sticks with me are the things I don't have to seek out. The everyday, business as usual, yet uniquely inspiring things I come across just by living in the world. All I have to do is be and the world drops inspiring jewels right to me. Here are some things I've come across and taken photos of. These everyday moments noticed continue to inspire me as I refer back.

Work may get hectic, but when I stop and look, I realize I lead a lucky life and am blessed with what I get to do and take home money for. I think my computer desktop is even aesthetically pleasing for the most part.
Coffee with a friend is always nice. For the conversation and company, yes, and when the coffee is its own art you want to take a picture of, even better.
Walking around, I never know what I will find. I love when I find symbols and things that reflect the inner, core me.
Definitely core material.
I wish I spent more time walking around in Italy, but looking back at
when I did, this moment of laughter, friendship, and being comfortable
as is makes me smile and pushes me forward.
And the silliness of people just being people inspire me to let my silly out.
I love inspiration.
Stella

Beautiful photos...love them all. Stella, what kind of camera do you shoot with?

@S&I- thanks! I use a Nikon Coolpix S210- small point & shoot!
I'm in the market for a better camera if anybody has suggestions. :)

Love your shots stella! The last one about the goose, actually had me smiling :-) needed that. Regarding good camera's, ther's a big hype out there about Canon's G -10 I hear, not a beauty but takes really amazing pics
