How do you tap into your creativity? Some people are spontaneous, others set up things, and some happen to stumble upon it not knowing what it really is. What is it that you do and how do you capture it?

i think creativity for me is more of an instinct. it's something that just pop out naturally from me. photography wise, i dont think i'm already creative on this field. im a novice actually.. im a bit stiffy, but im doing whatever i can to improve. i'm just 19, so i guess the journey with my camera is just starting. hope i'll be successful in this endeavor.
Often times I'll get ideas out of the blue or by something triggering thoughts that lead to my ideas, but honestly, most of the time I'll just go do my thing and I just kind of stumble upon most of my best ideas.

I always say "The best photos are by accident" I have gotten some of my best photos by just aimlessly y driving down a back road or hiking a trail. I usualy go by gut if it cathes my eye and makes look twice it is worth shooting I also like to use the Golden hour after sunrise I have gotten some fantasic autumn foliage shots just as the sun broke the horizon. Also I agree with R'N in that photos just pop out at me. I still consider myself a beginner. Usualy if it looks interesting or unusal nine times out of ten it is, and will make a great photo.
