Confidence street revisited

Oooh, lovely lovely. Returned to the batch (is that the right term..?) of photos from Saturday’s wander and found these two that were overlooked on the first cut…

Confidence street

Back out with my camera in Oxford today. I remembered another thing I learned from Antonio Olmos; travel light. Just the camera (no lens) and money/keys in my pocket. This was very liberating, and I got much closer to people. Quicker getaway without a lot of baggage. Cough cough*.

There was a lot going on for a rainy February afternoon. I broke the no animal rule, but rules are meant to be broken. And learned that it helps to have a good relationship with the local Big Issue seller.

*took a fab pic of a mother and baby watching an owl. Can’t bring myself to share it.

The streets of Oxford

Eek. Determined to take photos today for the first time since the masterclass. A few sneaky numbers on the walk from the bus to the office. And then home again. Breathe. Breathe. Breathe. Get close. Shoot and deal with fall out after.  Breathe….
