📖 A visit to Books on the Hill and a mini Daphne du Maurier exhibit
Michelle from the blog Daisybutter likes to visit places with books. This isn't the first post I've read from her where she visits one of these wonderful book places. But it's the first time I took the note to visit more bookshops and lose myself in these wonderful places. Especially in the small bookshops. Of course libraries are included in the wonderful book places!
📷 Each negative holds a thousand photographs
Jim Grey writes on his blog Down The Road about how one (1) film negative can bring out thousand positives (this is quite the blog post title). What Jim Grey writes is as simple as true. I can't even really describe what this post has done with me. But something revelatory, in a positive way. Especially his statement in response to the question of what is the truth in photography has touched a soft spot in my personal photographic development.
📷 Sean Tucker (YouTube channel)
I stumbled across the YouTube channel by Sean Tucker . He talks about photography, with focus on the "how". And even though I have only seen two (2) of his videos so far, they made me wanting see more of his videos. His style and his videos are pleasantly calm and slowing down. His content has an effect. I've already seen other videos' thumbnails that sound interesting but I want to take the time to watch each one.
The first video I watched was the following one: Making Candid Portraits in Street Photography (feat. Dawn Eagleton). Dawn Eagleton is a street photographer I haven't known before and it was very interesting to see how she works. Even though street photography is not my cup of tea, I really enjoy listening to others on this subject.
Only english content today but that's how it is. (This sentence obviously makes more sense in the german version of this post.)
🐧 Off-topic: I feel a bit uneasy as I haven't brought any blog post to an end recently. A number of posts have been drafted already and most of the post is finished. But I just haven't got round to finishing them. Mainly because the finalization must be done on the laptop/computer and on a lot of days, I didn't have the energy or just didn't want to have more screen time. A small disadvantage of blogging... 😫
