Thanks, Paul! I like 6 as well but for nostalgic reasons. I don’t know if you remember when I shot the construction site at work for a couple of years. That project was such an important moment in developing my skills—and, more importantly, I immediately came to love photographing the subject

Boy all your points are spot on—and energizing! —especially, your point about holding off a bit . . . at a distance . . . et al. It was almost as if I could see myself do exactly that as I was having my casual photo walk. You know that expression “do you feel me?” Well, it was as if my camera
