Yes Kjeld. Almost every day brings something new.
Or maybe better say" almost every day off bring something new".

LOL. That is funny. My job is about finding new things, so on my day off I try hard to not experience anything new.

I think that I've stand on the other side. My work looks for me SOOO boring. So, in search of new experience I aimlessly walking down the streets of my city. Almost every day off...

Hah, ha. Quite different situations we have. But your walking is not aimless, I'd say, considering the wonderful photographs that you come up with. You may not have a goal direction-wise, but there certainly seems to be an aim: to get great shots.

Thanks for kind words Kjeld. Usually I use a metro to reach some faraway places from my home. Cause I don't like social transport too much. So, sometime it take a long way on foot to walk back.

I actually like walking a lot, so I walk whenever I have the chance. I have walked from the south center of Osaka all the way to the north center, a distance that even with the subway takes some 15 minutes. It is a great way to stay healthy and thin, and you find all kinds of interesting places and shops.

Yes, it's great opportunity to find something new and interesting when we can walk. Sometimes I find interesting places like "music shops" that looks like "we are not from mainstream" or shops that sells "used things". It's really funny thing.
Last time when I take a walk, I don't really remember how much it takes time. But I remember that I walked a little more than 7 km.

I agree. For a photographer or a journalist this is the best way to find subjects.

Actually, there is one more way!
... Have somebody walk and search for you.

You kidding How can I let this happen...No way, it never (maybe ) happen...
Actually I always walking alone. Cause I think, if I take someone with me. That other person can start complaining for such a long trips on the foot.
Better be alone than listen it

Smart move! Often people ask if they can come with me when I go shooting, but I find I am less productive with people around and also can't concentrate as much. You have to be 100% devoted to your subject and that takes much time. Often hours waiting for the right moment. When I am with others, I start to feel bad for them and don't take the time that I should take.
