Of late I don’t take a lot of photos for my ‘Apartments’ project. Between work and writing I think I am probably mismanaging my time. Looking through the collection of images I have at the moment it goes back a year or two, perhaps more.
It’s only a recent addition to the project where I aim to capture some cars passing by which gives some beautiful light trails in front of this complex.
I’m sharing a few images from October. I’ve taken more than 30 images – I know, not a lot but I’m focusing on getting some better images. Also, cars don’t follow my routine in terms of when they pass by. September was a bit better, I think more than 40 and then the winter months (June – August) was the best.
I started this after I had already taken many photos of these apartments. It was only after thinking about the images of the place at night when “do a project” popped into my mind.
The next step here is to start putting together some of the existing photos and looking at a sequence that makes sense and talks about the subject. Ideas around a zine for this is up there. Writing about the images is another idea.
Since I enjoy writing & photography I keep leaning towards this type of thinking for the project. I’ve found a printing company and as time goes on I can also do a few prints of the photos. I think it will be a nice touch and a tangible way to show the efforts of my work.
Thanks for reading : )
