"Don't shoot what it looks like. Shoot what it feels like."

– Unknown/Commonly Attributed

“I am not interested in shooting new things – I am interested to see things new.”

– Ernst Haas

In this year-end episode of Street Shots, Antonio and Ward take some time to reflect on the past year and how their photography has been shaped by it. They talk about recent projects, photo books that left an impression, and how changes in place, access, and pace have influenced the way they see and make pictures. Rather than chasing trends or noise, the conversation leans toward slowing down and paying attention to what feels honest and sustainable.

They also discuss using newer tools, including AI-based image critique, as a way to better understand their own work — not for answers, but for reflection. The episode settles into a thoughtful conversation about distance, presence, and the quiet shifts that happen when photographers trust their instincts and give themselves permission to evolve.
