Shooting situations

|
I passed through the bustling street by the station in to an arcade in Otaru, Hokkaido. It was a desolate area, full of abandoned shops. I stopped to see an old woman sitting on a bench, looking into her coin purse. |



Feelings towards this work and how it interprets "At the heart of the image"



|
|
I find peace in the smiles of elders and children. When I see them not smiling, many emotions go through my head. Taking their photos is my means of encouraging these people. |
