Shots and Thoughts

Photos and comments as I explore my passion for photography. Written to and for myself as a journal to track major moments and minor observations as I continue to evolve my visual art. 

Back to Kyoto

After a extended time due to COVID, now back to Japan. So much the same and yet much has changed. A flood of emotions as I reconnect with the people and places I have missed over the last three years. Even the photography has shifted, with all the masks harder to make a connection with the subjects. Usually a big smile on my part opens up the photographic dialogue, now hard to tell on both sides. I love shooting portraits, but with the masks it is a challange. Will try shooting everyday to rebuild my photo eye (and legs!). Back in December, January, March, May, July and August…
