    Extremely insightful and honest. I can certainly appreciate the insights Ivan shared as I almost always hesitate when wishing to get closer to a subject in street photography. Hence, I generally don’t get close and prefer to keep a distance with my wide-angle lens. This doesn’t always produce an image that I’m happy with, but occasionally it does; when it does, it feeds my soul.
    Given that I have not picked up my camera to shoot since the start of the pandemic here in the States, I find it immensely difficult to rekindle the passion that I once had for photography. Until I find my way back, I watch and learn. In this regard, Ivan has become one of my teachers. Thanks, Ivan.
