October 3 - What to Photograph?

October 03, 2023 • Leave a Comment

Summer is my least favourite time of the year for photographing. Why is this so?

The sun usually shines brightly, making scenes more contrasty and colours less vibrant.

The days are often hot and humid and scenes lack atmosphere or vitality.

But I was itching to make some photos, so I decided to drive to Fielding Park and work on creating impressionistic photos. My method was to use intentional camera movement (ICM)and hope to come up with a few images. On this day I made 235 images, and wound up keeping 34. The rest were assigned to the "dust bin."

Here are some examples.
