Picked up an OM-1 couple of weeks ago. Never was into photography, digital or film. Here are the things that I love about photography so far.
1. That great feeling when you think you just took a great shot
2. Thinking about your shots after you've taken them
3. Waiting for film to get developed. This is like a gift you get every week and you can't wait to see what it is.
4. Finding a great shot that you did not think would turn out well.
5. Opportunity to get out of the office or apartment and just walk.
6. Get to talk to strangers. I've talked to more strangers last week than the entire last year.
Here are some of the shots I've taken last week.
NYC Sanitation Department was cleaning snow everywhere except where people actually walked....
Something about the way she is dressed and the weather
If brookly bridge was a guy, it would probably look like this guy
Just a cute baby not liking the weather like the rest of us.
Nice couple. They were smiling a lot.

Cleaning up snow where no one is walking because there is a huge area under FDR free of snow.

Chinatown
Nothing goes to waste in Chinatown and I think that's great.
