Ask HN: What do you take pictures of and show your best photographic work

1 pointsby madscphotoover 2 years ago
Hello everyone. As a photographer I always find it fascinating to see other&#x27;s work and how they approach composition etc. and I am sure some of you feel the same. In this spirit I thought I would start a thread dedicated to this, as I feel that I generally lack good feedback and that it is one of the pillars of growing as a photographer.<p>So please, give a short description in general of the genre of photography you do (so as to not just be a thread full of non-descript links), share your work and maybe some of the pictures you deem to be your best with a little story of how it came to be.<p>I can&#x27;t wait to see your photos!

I generally only photograph a lot when I am traveling, and as I am in the middle of a 8 month-ish trip through Latin America at the moment, that means pictures of the various countries such as Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Guatemala, Panama etc. I love to take documentary or candid pictures of interesting people, as well as of some of the beautiful nature I am traveling through.<p>One of my personal favorite photos I&#x27;ve taken came about by venturing into a smaller fruit and vegetable market in Copacabana, Bolivia just on the shore of Lake Titicaca. While browsing for avocados a little girl suddenly went running around with an empty box on her head and I managed to catch a moment where her bigger sister was observing her while she was next to the produce. (Please do tell if my Flickr links do not work)<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;flic.kr&#x2F;p&#x2F;2nYPmkC" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;flic.kr&#x2F;p&#x2F;2nYPmkC</a><p>A favorite newer landscape photo of mine was captured in the Puracé national park in Colombia. We were on a tour through the park and while observing the view at one point, the light poked selectively through the clouds to illuminate only certain parts of the green landscape.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;gp&#x2F;159459754@N07&#x2F;c2i4Lr4K4n" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.flickr.com&#x2F;gp&#x2F;159459754@N07&#x2F;c2i4Lr4K4n</a><p>I share my highlights on Instagram, and use Flickr primarily as a private backup.
