Chris, I'm not Brian, but I think that you have some great theme ideas 
there. 
Set yourself a little project each month to shoot something specifically for 
the comp.
I am trying to do this and am enjoying it thoroughly. My personal extra 
rule, it has to be with an M and Leica glass. Show those
unbelievers why they never should stray from the true path ;-)
Now confess, do you have a killer pic for each of those categories already?

Cheers
Hoppy
