Remember a couple of days ago, when I wrote about trying to learn how to photograph people and how that microgreens kid made it easy? This was practically the same thing – that girl noticed my camera and offered to let me photograph her lunch. You can tell what my counter-offer was. How could I resist those smiles?

I am trying to make myself take photos of people. It is not anything that comes naturally to me, but I am committed to becoming a better photographer, to expanding my boundaries, and all that stuff.
This kid made it really easy – he saw my camera and asked me if I’d like to take a picture of his microgreens. I made a counter offer: that I make a photo of the microgreens (he was very proud of them) with him in it.
And this is what that looked like.

i will never understand what’s left behind
I have looked inside a lot of abandoned places, and have photographed all of them. And I do not – and likely never will – understand why some things get left behind.
Did they intend to come back and get the rest of their things? Or did they just say fuck it and walk away from failure, hoping that maybe on another day in another town, they’d get a new coffee cup? Or whatever.
