Back in Back Bay Station I was waiting for my train to leave when I heard a voice asking me if I was a photographer. I turned towards the voice and saw this woman sitting next to me. I replied that I was an enthusiastic amateur photographer, but not a professional (as if that makes much difference). She told me that she had started to get into photography and we chatted for a while, with me encouraging her in her photographic journal, which she was just beginning. Then it was time for me to leave.

She gave me her name, but I have a terrible memory for names and can’t remember what it was.

I wish her luck. It’s not an easy journey, particularly if you want to make money from your photography.

Taken with a Sony A6000 and 18-135mm f3.5-5.6 OSS.
