Fear of contact

None of this felt right. But it was worth an experience.

I was recently traveling for longer distances by public transport and had to change trains at large stations. I thought, why not use waiting times and get close to folks?!
Because of my consumtion of various contents from street photographers like Samuel Lintaro Hopf and Sean Tucker, I was full of inspiration. Thus, I imagined the most beautiful images in my mind already.
Until now, I’d only touched street photography on the surface, at best.
I wanted to get more into this photo genre.
So without further ado I threw the camera into my bag and off I went.
But then on site howsoever, I was confronted with the fear of contact.

All of a sudden I felt inhibited and couldn’t get as close to people as I would’ve liked for the shots visualized in my mind, but for what reason.
On the one hand, I guess I was no longer used to crowds of people this large. Due to the Corona-induced isolation over the past years, I obviously had to relearn social interaction at large groups again. I am talking about real interactions, of course. Not the virtual ones we nowadays participate in every day!!
On the other hand, well, I have never confronted strangers with my camera in public before like one would in terms of classic street photography. In theory it all sounds so simple, in practice I felt uncomfortable invading the personal space of someone I don’t know.
Whatever, none of that did seem right but it was worth an experience.
How good that commuting is part of everyday life! We’ll meet again, friend. Next time I’ll eat you up.
