I'm a beginner in photography. I'm stuck. I don't know what to take pictures of. Are there other beginners who struggle to photograph something?

What pictures do you see, do you wish you could take?

and the last glass of champagne has been drunk

Your "vision" is your guide as to what to photograph. what images stir your soul? ponder these and inspiration will come to you. Also read the thread on "phptographers Block" here on the boards.

Do you have any hobbies that you could cover that subject, do you like walking in which landscapes may be the way to go, do you like sports anyone in particular, you could try that, are you an animal lover or just into nature, plenty of plants and animals to cover, what about macro close ups of anything could be your direction, take a look at a few magazines and see if there is anything in there that you could get into, its a large world out there you will find something
