Cira Notes

Exploring a city on foot

A familiar street can look different in the early morning. Start with a short route, leave room for a detour and notice the details: a courtyard, an old doorway or the changing light on a wall.

A good walk needs little planning. Comfortable shoes, some water and enough time to stop are usually enough.

Photographs worth keeping

Choose one subject before reaching for the camera. Look at the edges of the frame, simplify the background and try a different angle. A small collection of thoughtful photographs often tells a clearer story than hundreds of hurried shots.
