About Street Portraits, day twelve of 30

What is the hardest part of it? Just to keep at it.  There isn’t really an end state, a lot of people (subjects and viewers alike) don’t get it, worse some people treat it as some sort of deviant like behavior.   You get a lot, I mean A LOT of no answers.  It can some times feel like there isn’t anything good to come for it.  If you say it out loud “I ask strangers on the street if I can take their photo for free”, it genuinely sounds a little weird.  Couple that with life, not having time, having shots NOT come out good.. and it gets a little bit tiring.  So, sticking with it is probably the hardest part, that heading back out and keeping at it.

This was taken July 10th, 2022, some where near B and 11th.
