Horace<\/a> is essentially my ultimate hype man. He gets me pumped up, encourages me to live in the NOW — and do things NOW; today, without delay for the (uncertain) tomorrow.<\/p>\n

I like this philosophy that NOW (not later today) but RIGHT NOW is the best time to shoot. Currently on ERIC KIM FORUM<\/a> we are running STREET CLUB SUMMER SCHOOL<\/a>, which is your opportunity to shoot NOW; today — by just going inside Coffee Shops, and photographing on the way<\/em> to a coffee shop, or inside the coffee shop.<\/p>\n

Go for a walk and just shoot<\/h2>\n

I’m so inspired by the power of photography today– especially with computational photography<\/a>, and also the power of the Google Pixel<\/a> and HDR+ technology. Also any phone camera is more than good enough (with VSCO A6 presets<\/a>).<\/p>\n

\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153In the midst of hope and care, in the midst of fears and disquietudes, think every day that shines upon you is the last. Thus the hour, which shall not be expected, will come upon you with an agreeable addition.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Horace\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You have infinite potential and opportunities as a photographer. If you want to shoot more, just go on a walk around the block, and give yourself the assignment to take any photos that interest you, without self-censoring yourself!<\/p>\n
