The Chippie

There are times as a photographer when you see a shot that just has to be taken purely for reasons of colour and nothing to do with subject. These shops in Wanganui were across the road from some shots I was taking for an on-going project, and it was the first time I'd noticed them despite having driven past on numerous occasions. Mmmm red.

I agree. I like this shot it. It's the kind of photograph I would take. Everyday stuff that we all pass by. Yet, you frame it in the view finder, focus, click and suddenly it's a photograph. So many people look at such photos and are astonished that the subject is in their own back yard. I put a bunch of photos of Buenos Aires on my site and a friend from there and his friends looked them over and didn't recognize their own city. Anyway, keep it up! I plan to stop back and have look again. -John
