[Leica] On the Beach La Barceloneta -> Ted

[Nathan Wajsman]

I think in addition to what Lluis mentions, there is another factor. I see that in my own photography. The best pictures are those I make where I live, or in places that I visit so often that they also feel like home (such as Aarhus, Copenhagen or Brussels). When I am in those places, I know instinctively what to look for, how people behave, when is the light good at certain times of the day, etc. It takes time to get to that level of intimacy with a place.

Cheers,
Nathan

The reason is so easy, I always say that at least me, I prefer walk alone on the streets for shooting the moments I like, in Chicago I was not alone, I was with my wife, of course nothing against but her points of interest visiting a city and mines differ absolutely, in Chicago I was stressed on the streets, trying to shoot some views while passing, but this is not the same and the kind of concentration and mentality I need to shoot the life. You are a very fine observer and these facts has not passed away in front of your expert eyes…. Thank you!
