For an entire day I chose to shoot up close, approximately one arm length away from my subject. I took many of these photos on the streets of Hampton Beach and some around my house. One habit I recognized was when being forced to shoot up close, I often focused on capturing the texture of my subjects. These photos also capture the idea of "getting lost" because you wouldn't know exactly where these photos were taken especially if they were displayed individually. The photos taken on the beach don't show what beach is it. The photos taken on the boardwalk and at my house don't show any specific details to tie them to a location. With out any specific theme the viewer can get lost in this set of photos.
At Arms Length
180 Degrees
While walking around the boardwalk of Hampton Beach I suddenly realized these narrow alley ways between the restaurants. I've been to Hampton many times before but I never really payed any attention these areas. This is a benefit to going to the beach in the winter, there are very few people. There is very limited space in these allies and one which was filled with trash. However, with a one-hundred and eighty degree turn you are facing the wide open beach.
