"I do not try to find myself in what I 'shoot,' but perhaps I want to see the position of the world I am in." -- Daido Moriyama

"Often while traveling with a camera we arrive just as the sun slips over the horizon of a moment, too late to expose film, only time enough to expose our hearts." -- Minor White

In this episode, Antonio and Ward catch up and talk about the trips they each took recently. Ward shares his experience traveling through Japan for eleven days, visiting Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Osaka. He talks about how he planned his photo approach ahead of time, but also how being in such a different place pushed him to adjust on the fly. There’s a lot about the feeling of being there—the quiet streets, the pace of the subway system, the powerful visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial, and what it was like photographing during the peak of cherry blossom season.

Antonio then talks about a shorter but important trip he made to Lincoln, Nebraska. It was his first time flying in a long while, and also his first time seeing the place where he plans to move. He visited his girlfriend, met her kids and friends, and started to get a feel for the town and what life might be like there. He also made time to take some pictures and begin thinking about what kind of photography might come out of being in a new environment.
