True, I was speaking from my own experience, keeping in mind the subject
matter I see/recall in Boris's photographs.

You're talking like a nature photographer, or an architectural
photographer. Once you start photographing people and dynamic situations,
for the most part there's no time to "contemplate" the meaning of it all.
You've gotta make your decisions quickly and move on to the next shot.
Boris, heed Godfrey's advice and hie thee to a list that has as the main
focus discussing photographs. The PAW list is OK - although I've not posted
there for a while - and therefore, not commented - the pics and the people
may be just what you need to give you an enthusiasm of spirit and perhaps
add some more excitement to you photos. There are other similar venues -
seek and you shall find.
This list is filled with nature and landscape photographers, and, it seems
that those are the types of photos that are mostly posted. You may need to
expose yourself to a wider variety, and a greater number of photos.
Experiment, experiment, experiment. Shoot from your heart and your soul -
go with your feelings, be aware of context and composition, but first
photograph what you feel.
Finally, did you ever read On Being a Photographer? If you haven't I'm not
sending you that package you're expecting <LOL>
