Shoot, export, edit, process, post. Something is off. I think I know what.

If aliens are real…
I hope I can get a good photo of them.
Extreme Confidence
I think it’s good overall, but the elders with it are the ones I listen to. They’ve been through life and all it has to offer. I used to be so sure of myself in my younger days. The older I get, the less I seem to know. Always examining things. The elders sure aboutContinue reading “Extreme Confidence”
New Challenges
I’ve thought a lot about why I like to do street photography. Ultimately at the root, it’s because it’s challenging. Until it’s not. At this point in my photo journey, I can come back with a few good photos anytime I shoot. I live in a very fruitful area and maybe my standards are tooContinue reading “New Challenges”
Using a Fun Camera
The goal is to have fun with photography. Use whatever camera that allows you to have the most fun. I wouldn’t worry about specs or even the camera that you take the most “good” photos. That shouldn’t be a consideration as there’s no way to sustain taking good photos with a camera you don’t likeContinue reading “Using a Fun Camera”
Getting bored…
with my photos. Time to switch it up. I don’t know what that means exactly. I did buy some film, getting back into that but its not enough. I need to do something with my compositions.

“the action or fact of treating someone unfairly in order to benefit from their work.” Seems to be a common thought about photographing people from poor neighborhoods and/or countries. I think it’s total BS. Look at this lady below. Does she look exploited? I saw her working behind these huge slabs of meat in anContinue reading “Exploitation”
I See You
If you are serious about street photography then you recognize the ones who put in the time and work. You cannot become “good” at street photography unless you put in the work. Basically shoot everyday, every month, every year. It takes dedication. You have to make it part of your life. Respect to everyone torturingContinue reading “I See You”
Mundanity
– the quality of being commonplace and ordinary An issue in my photography. Shooting in the same places everyday. Finding something extraordinary is the goal. Or better yet, turning the mundane into something exciting. That’s where I need to go. I really respect the street photographers who are doing great work in places other thanContinue reading “Mundanity”
The Leica M Is Undefeated
It’s 49-0 with 49 KOs. The Floyd Mayweather of cameras. Why? Because it’s tiny, full frame, quiet and durable. The IQ is great and all you need. It’s the best for street. Manual focusing with a tab can’t be matched. Leica is a camera for people who like to use their hands. There’s no shutterContinue reading “The Leica M Is Undefeated”
