Travelers, from another place

Barbed Wire Study, LAX
The thing is, when you’re a photographer, it’s nearly impossible to be bored, to have nothing to do. I filled up a few airport hours taking pictures of the activity outside the window. I guess that’s not (yet) banned.
Anyway, my head was full of lessons on micro composition and careful shooting that I’d had that weekend, so I spent a long time working on getting the barbed wire and that white rectangle exactly the way I wanted them. Likewise, over in the Air Canada terminal my friend and erstwhile classmate Ehpem spent his time similarly, but with very different results.
Because that’s what we do.

Slow Afternoon, Union Station
That particular afternoon, none of the people passing through Union Station were in the market for a new hat, leaving the vendor free to watch something on his computer.

Hollywood Boulevard (not glamorous)
The place where – I am led to believe – Playmates previously purchased their shoes is now a smoke shop. And there’s rain all day in sunny southern California.

A late supper
You’ve seen it, haven’t you? The more-frequent inclusion of people in my images. Are you wondering if I’m OK? Do you suspect that someone else has taken over my blog?
The answers are Yes. And No.
In the past, I would have lined up my shot and waiting for the people to leave before I made the picture. But, as part of my ongoing process to see things differently, I’ve decided to leave people in some of the shots. We’ll see how that goes!

PS – There is a chance, I guess, that one of these days I go completely off the deep end and post a photo that not only has people in it, but is in color!
