The Thinker

I once sent myself an email.

As you do.

When you have a thought you wish to remember.

And no notebook handy to jot it in.

It was this:

it occurs to me that my talent as a photographer lies not in photographing people but in photographing the things people leave behind

It made sense at the time.

And I think it's still true.

To a degree.

It's certainly where my interest lies.

I'll leave it up to others to decide if it's where my talent(s) lie.

So here's some photographs of things people have left behind.

The reckless slobs.

And something I left behind.

Though I did pick it up shortly after.

So I'm not such a reckless slob.
