I\’ve more or less mastered the mechanics of the camera now, some six months later, but Arbus showed me how to take photos of people. With wildlife, you can point and shoot. Not so with people, as Arbus demonstrates. You must take the time to get to know your subjects before shooting them. It\’s nice to read that she influenced you, too!
I hope you had a deliriously happy birthday! Constance
