Caption Contest: When Life Gives You Lemons

Life Gives you Lemons-Caption Contest

Photography by Martha Schuster featured in Somerset Life 2011

Sometimes as artists, life gives us lemons – the bitterness of writer’s block or the tart inability to create. But instead of letting our day go sour, we must find a remedy to bring sweet ideas to life! While skimming the pages of our past issues, I stumbled upon this brilliant photo in our Spring 2011 Somerset Life magazine, effectively quenching my thirst for inspiration.
