the way I see the world
In the past I couldn’t have imagined going on a walk without my camera, but Covid changed that. For some reason Covid caused me to be less interested in photography. The times I did take the camera with me I found people weren’t as careful about the six feet of distance: if I was down on the ground I guess they thought it didn’t matter if they walked right by me. I found it uncomfortable to even try to shoot things.
This week, though, I was determined to use it at least once. So both Monday and Tuesday I took it with me. I had forgotten the weight that adds to my travels, and I walk slower as well, but I forced myself to shoot at least a few things. It was breezy, so it was a challenge to get anything in focus at all. Here’ s a shot from Monday.
