every click I feel a little more inept, a little smaller, a little more inspired...

When i see the works of the famed I look on with awe, yet never doubting myself. When I look at the work of a creative genius who is an ordinary person like me, I feel worthless, and am put right where I belong....on the ground. Flickr is a great place to explore if you are ever feeling more bloated than usual, it successfully can make you look at your work and say "and i actually thought i had something there". It leaves you inspired to the brim and somehow in its own unique way it urges you to do better, just so you could also stand in the same ranks as the others.

With every click I discover more artists, more creative geniuses, who albeit with far better cameras than mine, still go about making art and stoping my heart beat for that split second.
Reduktiv, Myra Iqbal, Sahrizvi, Ali K, Harold Davis, Ahmed Zahid and so many more thank you for bringing me crashing back to reality through your pictures.

"Bird Boy" by Shahrivi was nicely done and so was "Hot n Sour Corns"
