Musings of a displaced Australian Photographer in Seattle, USA
It’s been fairly rainy in Seattle the last few days and it got me thinking — it’s really not that bad. The rain here (contrary to popular belief) isn’t all that heavy. It’s light drizzle at best and lingers through the day which is what gives the area its rainy stereotype. I thought, there are...
One situation we often face as photographers often have to face is a choice between getting the shot and coming back tomorrow.
