Earthlings

These aren’t the greatest photos in the world, but that’s because I’m not looking at the subjects when I take them!

When I’m out and about and inspiration strikes I like to entertain myself by using my iPhone’s camera burst in a way that it probably wasn’t intended to be used: I’ll hold my phone up to my head like I’m listening to a voicemail or carry it at my side, keeping my finger down on the shutter button all the while as I walk past my “subjects”. Dozens of photos are snapped within the span of a few seconds and most of the time at least one of them ends up being a keeper with some simple cropping and aligning.

Quite a few of them have been accumulating on my phone so I recently decided to glob some together in a series that I’m calling “Earthings”.
