It can be difficult to change old habits. In my photography, I have always tended to exclude people from my images, but lately I’m allowing a few strangers to enter my frame. It does make the final result more dynamic and I am liking that. Luckily for this photograph I was good and far away, so I didn’t feel I was intruding on anyone’s personal space.
We develop habits in the art we look at, too, as well as the things we read. I’m trying hard these days to expand my looking. To make it work, though, I’m finding that I must stop looking at some of my old favorites. And man, I’ve really gotta spend less time online.
