A Boston Impression

This photograph really encompasses every element I seek to pull together when shooting street photography - vibrant colors, people engaged, a little hint of urban wildlife - all set in a cityscape.

When asked about what I look for in the city, I candidly admit I care less about creating a "story" or "capturing moments" - for me, I really focus on looking for things that make me ~feel~ . If a scene is warm or inviting, I will likely raise my camera to it. I also appreciate the sense of anonymity the city provides and with this. I try to focus less on individual people and more on groups and how those groups use up the spaces our society has built.

I wanted to mint this as my first NFT because of its personal importance to me. I have been trying to create photos that align with the styles of post-impressionist painters and this was the first of my work I think I actually did so successfully. With this photo, I found my style as a photographer.
