the most interesting images would likely come from breaking commonplace social conventions, and going where people do not often go, looking where people do not often look. [..]Random Recollection: We sat quietly on some steps in front of a large hall in Central Brussels to rest our legs and to watch the crowd pass by.
that consists of paying attention to things that we generally pass by without looking at closely.
Things forbidden us by the quickness of the moment, and the social constraint against looking.
It was easy to spot the lady in the pink dress holding a can of beer - Brussels being the home of beer to many.
She circled rather randomly in front of us and then sat beside us. Unknowing to her, I snapped the following sequence of photos, which to me seem to capture some of the sentiments from the above quote.
