I can’t remember what it was exactly, but during my first semester my freshman year I took an intro to photography course and the teacher showed me these photos about a couple who documented all these windmills across the country. I didn’t realize it until now, but that had a pretty decent effect on the photography that I enjoy today. So here is a link to a website for an exhibition on koban photography. Koban are small police boxes across Japan to help keep the peace, have some place for people to ask directions and so that everyone feels safe. I just like the fact that here we are taking documentation of these everyday things and making sure that we don’t forget about the important things that help everyone out.
