This year, it has become customary to take pictures on the streets of the capital. This time I got an autumn evening – the last rays of the outgoing autumn sun and twilight turning into night.
In order to take reportage photos in a city, you need to know this city.
For street photography, it is enough to be in any place where there are people and give yourself up to space.
But I was on a creative reporting wave and I couldn't immerse myself in the real street.
In general, I wanted to take pictures in some recognizable place, but there was no such opportunity.
If in my city I can find new stories on the streets I have already studied up and down, then in a city I don't know, it's like I'm scratching only on the surface.
It's like I'm shy, shy, afraid to reach my full potential.
Or vice versa, I do not give myself the right to make mistakes, but due to the lack of vivid subjects, I shoot little and to the point.
It doesn't always happen that way.
At the beginning of this year, for example, everything was very good in Moscow with spotty plots.
Oh yes, that's right! I was upset that I couldn't capture the strongest magnetic storm of the year in the form of the northern lights.
I was also upset that I couldn't take pictures of the first snow in Vologda.
This trip also fell on the best visibility of the comet.
In general, I missed all the important photographic events for myself being in Moscow.
And that's why I was unconsciously, subconsciously angry at this city.
So it turned out to be modest "only people", without interesting tricks...
