It was a cloudy day and the urge to create something had attacked my wife, so it was the perfect opportunity to visit the fabric store. This store specializes in quilting and as a result the range of fabrics in all sorts of colors and patterns is very impressive and guaranteed to get any enthusiast's creative juices flowing. So, I thought the best thing for me to do (since I do not seem to have creative juices) was to leave her to it and find another store to browse in. But I very soon discovered that there were no "manly" stores in the vicinity, such as model railroads and cars, books, sporting goods and other interesting things like that and I very soon drifted back to the fabric store where apparently no decisions had been made as yet. But the colors and patterns attracted even me and having my camera with me (of course) I whiled away the time by getting some images on the memory card. I'm afraid I got so involved that I had to be nearly dragged away kicking and screaming! Not my usual actions in a store like that, but it just shows that what Freeman Patterson says is quite correct and that there is a potential photograph everywhere if only the photographer is prepared to look for it.
