i haven't got exams, but i have got my uni dissertation due in very soon... i have been feeling uninspired due to the fact that i've been spending every day in the library working on it, and don't really have time to think about what to shoot :(

For me, exams time is when I'm inspired the most! :D It may be because my mind is always thinking at that time, or because I try to come up with any thing to do other than studying lol. I guess it depends on what you're studying.

I'm guilty of having taken shots very similar to yours. xD I think it's a nice distraction/release from hours upon hours of study!

Though I'm 36 years old, I'm getting ready for my bachelor's graduation. Papers and projects due this week, final exams next week. Last week I took a photo of working on a paper.

In general I'm less inspired. For me stress = less motivation, but I'm keeping up. It's the days I spend almost entirely behind a computer when I wonder what I'm possibly going to take a photo of. Then, again, getting away from the desk for a photo break always does me good.

Exams and work = less inspiration. Less time as well, obviously, but the more destructive one is less inspiration.

This is was happened last time, had to compensate for the crap photo with over the top editing:

I have A-Levels and last year I had my GCSEs but I still kept going throughout them.
Last year it really helped because it made me go out of the house and take revision breaks.
This year I'm finding it stressful on top of everything else and also I'm feeling incredibly low and therefore struggling to get the motivation to keep taking decent pictures, but I'm keeping going with it because it's probably good for me :p
Good luck!

Haha I've tried to take pictures while ACTUALLY taking the test! It's kind of weird because all the other students think that you're taking a picture of them, or the teachers assume you're cheating! (How on earth do you cheat with a camera?? LOL)

@grimbo same! .. as much as i want to be out photgraphing everything i have a dissertation due in on Friday the 13th of all days .. not to mention two other large assignments so its taken a back seat for the last month which is very upsetting! .. hope your all cracking on and good luck to everyone! .. get some good photos up once your works handed in!

I find when my assignments are on a deadline and I am under loads of study pressure, I welcome taking photos.. For me its a brain break where i can lose myself in time to give my head a rest.

I'm more inspired during exams because i'm a procrastinator. I'd rather do anything except study. Therefore I welcome the distraction of my daily 365. The other day I started to pack up my dorm instead of finishing a paper.
