Photography is a game, not about looking, but by taking the time to see possibilities.

At this location, we are dealing with indirect light, behind me is a building that blocks the direct sunlight, but to my left you have a side street where the sunlight on the side of a building reflects the sunlight on the face of John arrives.
Behind John is another residential tower, where the sunlight hits one of the windows and this reflection could be seen on the street.

By placing John in the right place, you can make a 'simple' photo, in which John is illuminated by the sunlight from several sides.

You do not achieve such a photo by looking, but by learning to see.

Golden Beak

I spotted this blackbird tucked among the leaves. Unlike most birds, it didn’t flinch when I raised my camera it simply stayed put, almost as if it was posing for the shot.
