Earlier this week I wrote something about how in my recent shots around Lisbon there were some with people actively interacting with their devices, but more than those devices the’re very engaged with the moment, being the selfie stick the most eye catching of the “tourist rituals”. Coincidence or not I had this photo from last year from Havana ready to publish on my Flickr account (https://www.flickr.com/photos/t3mujin/29069643805/), this made me think about how I perceive photography…I’m an observer by nature, someone who collects its surroundings rather actively interacting with it. That means that people photography for me is much more about capturing them, specially when engaged in their rituals, which can be as diverse as their faith, but also their craft or leisure. I don’t do portraits often and the reason is that I don’t like to direct people, I’m not creative person so my work is not will never be imaginative or visually compelling. In fact I don’t create anything, I just capture it.
