i dont usually photograph people, candidly. i cant seem to master that 'blending into the wall' trick of great photojournalists. Also, it makes me nervous. but that doesn't mean i don't want to.
when traveling in chiapas, mexico i found myself noticing so many photographs that i did not take. now i have noticed un-'taken' photographs in my life before, but this was excessive. i was in a new, different, curious place. almost everything seemed photoworthy. but i had been warned that photography is a very sensitive issue for many people there. so that, coupled with my nervousness for candid photography, kept my camera inside my bag more often than out. On a particular vanride as i noticed a particularily striking 'un-taken' image i realized that i was infact still 'taking' them, just not with my camera. so, I began to write them down.
