1.Cut off participation on photo critique forums. Over time many of the submitted photos start to emulate each other converging into a common style versus diverging to original work.
2.Bein viewing art web sites more frequently to get inspuseums and traveling exhibits to see the work of other artists (not just photographers)
4.Begin looking at and reading classic and contemporary art books
5.Force yourself to use different lenses
6.Intentionally avoided taking the same types of shots by recognizing one’s habits in the field
7.Identify and start personal art projects that you’ll find fulfilling even if they’re unlikely to resonate with others
8.Monitor new technologies (hardware, software or even things out of left field that are unrelated) to see if they might be creatively applied to make something new and never before seen.
9.Take a lot of iPhone photos as a creative white board to see things you might pass over otherwise
10.Ask yourself “What if…?” a lot and try to formulate something new from your basic curiosity.
