so I always think about him when traveling in a foreign country. I
shot this during an average day in Poland. These young boys had just
picked some amazing blooms of lilac flowers and where on the side of the
road. It was the end of a very long day of tons of shooting horses and
we (Anna and I) were both just wanting to go home and take a shower
when I saw this. Granted we didn't come to a complete stop, but I at
least picked up the damn camera and stuck my head out the window. It
is shots like this that, if I had not taken the little bit of effort,
would keep me up at night kicking myself for not getting the shot.
This just happened to Anna in Frankfurt airport. She was so excited to
tell me about how beautiful the light was and how amazing the view
through clean glass as the planes where landing. She felt terrible for
not taking out the camera and shooting. My good friend and mentor,
Chip Maury, told me once, "Never let yourself regret a missed
opportunity."
Gospel!!!
