Shooting in flat light
Overcast days are underrated. Without hard shadows the colours of a street stay honest, and a slightly lifted exposure keeps skin tones natural. I keep the white balance fixed and correct later, so a whole series matches.
Field Notes
Occasional notes on photography, travel and small software projects.
Packing list, revised
One body, two primes, a spare battery for every day without a charger, and a small notebook. Everything else turned out to be optional.
Keeping small projects small
A static page, a text editor and version control cover most personal needs. Fewer moving parts means fewer things to update at two in the morning.
