Friend-shooter of mind asked me today, when did it click for you? When did you know photography was the game to be in? Oddly, unlike a lot of my past history, I could pinpoint exactly the moment
I was sent out by my then-employer to do some work in Simi Valley, CA. Bored, I picked up a Ricoh KR-10M with a modest Rikonen zoom (both long since stolen). Landing on the weekend, I went for a drive down PCH to adjust my body clock, with a plan to visit the Getty museum. After being rejected because I hadn't booked, and after finding a not quite legal park on the beach, I saw a pretty lady with a pet pig. Not understanding the honourable history of street photography, I begged her to let me take a photo, which she did, to my gratitude. It could have gone the other way, but that shot made me think, there was something to this hobby. Fine-boned ladies will let you take their picture with their pig, what's not to enjoy?
