--A sister book of “0506”
As I was composing project “0506,” I felt that some photos might be better off being in another separate project because of their nature. Those photos tended to be more stand-alone, or make more sense when paired with another picture without limitation of the timeline in the chronologically-orientated “0506.”
I was never intensively trained as a photographer. When I'm finding a view to shoot, I'm more attracted to scenes that are rich in lines/composition than light/atmosphere, which is a significant element to photography whereas lines are more about graphic design. As result, my photographic works are flatter, shallower, and involve more lines and shapes. Other than that, I also like scenes that are interesting, have a story, or have a few little details to look for. However, they're not necessarily pretty pictures in that regard.
