AROUND THE CORNER: Happy Character - TURN 4

Chongqing China. An unexpected encounter in a backstreet alleyway.

I love wandering around and interacting with people. Street portraits are as much a part of street photography as the images where the photographer is an invisible “fly on the wall”. I don’t feel that as a photographer I’m only taking (a photograph). It’s an exchange of energy, as long as the interest in the other is genuine, even if it’s a brief 1/250 of a sec.

About AROUND THE CORNER

A whole new world lies around every corner.

The street photographer realizes that what we are conditioned to accept as normal and mundane is never that. In the photographer’s eye, mere looking is transcended into seeing. All it really takes is an inner attitude fueled by curiosity and nourished by respect.

AROUND THE CORNER is an open-ended collection of street photography 1/1 NFTs. Standalone images taken in a multitude of locations, far or near, exotic or ordinary, but always presenting a mirror, encouraging the viewer to turn around and observe their own environment, to marvel at the stage we’re on and the play we find ourselves part of.
