The other day I was walking with Victoria and Parker to the park. We passed a girl that had a camera around her neck. Every now and then she would stop to take a photo. I noticed her meander through the park taking photos of things here and there. It made me wonder - what was she taking photos of and why (I was genuinely curious). I wished I had struck up a conversation with her. She made me think about my own photography and on that day I took two seemingly random photos that really stuck out to me.
The first was of these purple flowers and a cement brick. I took this photo because the little purple flowers (totally weeds) reminded me of the ones that grew at my grandparents place when they lived in West Kelowna.
The second was this home on the way to the park. I just liked it because of the shutters on the window. They were unique. At first I wanted a tight frame with just one of the windows but I was using my Canon M100 with the 15-45 lens and couldn’t get a tight enough zoom (we were on the other side of the street). So instead I went with a wide frame. I quite like the layers that I was able to capture - the paved road, the fence, the house and tree line.
I want this to be a new series that I work on, temporarily calling it What & Why. I hope you enjoyed the first instalment :)
