Ongoing / Omaha / walking notes

Walkingaround

An open-ended Omaha collection: signs, buildings, blue hour, parked cars, strange edges, and small things seen on foot.

This is an ongoing collection rather than a finished trip report, so I will add to this whenever a walk produces a small run of photographs that belongs with the rest. I like to challenge myself with an assignment when out on these walks. Sometimes, I try to only photograph something blue, or something round, or something funny. These are the images I've been capturing and using to learn what I like photographing. Right now, that seems to mean architecture and abstract shapes, but I imagine my interests will develop over time.
