Walking the camera

So here’s some of what I saw on my stroll in town at the beginning of the week. It’s been ages since I’ve been out actively taking pictures, as opposed to just being out and about, and by chance having my camera on me. There’s a huge difference. I recently watched an old documentary following Joel Meyerowitz shooting on the street (sadly the picture quality is rubbish), and it was so exciting to see how he worked and what he thought about what he saw, when he saw it. There’s a huge treasure trove of old documentaries about famous photographers on YouTube that I’ve only just discovered, and I’m looking forward to diving into them soon. And my intention for 2020 is… to take pictures more intently. Hehe.
