The last few days of self quarantine have encouraged us to take some long walks around the neighborhood. Taking the camera makes the walks less boring and I tend to look for compositions that normally would have escaped my attention.  I think of how Garry Winogrand would find these oddities in front of his lens and capture those daily life scenes.  Garry wanted to remove the photographer from the scene and have it appear as if the scene just happened without an interpretation by the photographer; thus, to be invisible to the viewer of the image. Many of his images looked awkward or mundane.  His intent is that you just happened upon the scene without it being 'shown' or composed for you by the photographer.  That is not my intent...ever.  I prefer a composed and edited image.
