Random

/ˈrandəm/

made, done, or happening without method or conscious decision.

"Running out of places to shoot" or "I can't think of anything to shoot" are mind games that afflict all photographers at some point. Me included. Reminding myself that I live in a city of 7.5m people and that it's almost impossible to run out of places to shoot doesn't help much either. I still end up in the same old places shooting the same old things. Needing inspiration and the decision-making process nullified, I entered all 84 Hong Kong metro stations into a random list generator.  

It spat out a list.

I follow that list. 

 

Each week I ride the subway, make my way to the next station on the list, and once I arrive, I take the nearest exit. From there, I just walk for hours and shoot. No aim, no direction, no theme, no nothing. Just see stuff and shoot.
