My morning walk yesterday was spent in my girlfriend's neighborhood. It's a quite Italian suburb of Brooklyn in between Williamsburg and Greenpoint. The differences between my neighborhood and hers are pretty jarring which will be pretty evident in my photos on tomorrow's blog as my neighborhood is filled with people. Her area of Brooklyn is much quieter and I saw fewer people on the streets and even fewer people without masks. This brings me to a crutch I've been leaning on. After taking these photos I could tell I was avoiding people. It's something so easy for me to do but as an extrovert, I have absolutely no reason to shy away from photographing people. For myself, it is much more important to photograph people than it is to photograph objects because I'm interested in the human condition. I'm interested in why we do things and how I can make my own life better from observing other people.

The point here today is we all have that little thing in our life that we're avoiding that can propel us to the next level. What makes you a little nervous? Go conquer that thing before it conquers you!

With that being said my promise to you guys is that tomorrow's morning walk pictures will have more people in them.
