Conversation in the sky London, ON May 2022 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
So I’ve evolved a bit of a habit when I visit them: I take pictures to make it all seem a little less scary. I’ll try to set aside a few minutes somewhere along the way to wander around and see what I see.
Because things look different - less frightening, even - when you look at them through a lens.
Because when you focus on composition and lighting and all the other tiny aspects of getting the right shot, what was once overwhelming can transform into something a little more within your control.
At least that’s how I choose to see it. Maybe I’m wrong, but it seems to be working for now.
And here you thought this was just a silly photo of a couple of buildings having a conversation.
