Howard ChengDecided to start a bit of a more light-hearted / casual series, #ShutterAndSoul, on my Instagram where I take classic philosophical quotes and see how they can be applied to #photography.
Have just put together the first of my series in case anyone might be interested.

Howard Cheng | Travel Photographer on Instagram: ""Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." —Seneca A lot about photography can be attributed to luck—being in the right place at the right time, and then having something specific happen while you're there shooting. Take what happened here: I was already happily snapping photos of this young girl, holding what seemed to be an oversized Ukrainian flag relative to her size, whilst covering a protest in London held in solidarity with Ukraine against the Russian invasion. Without any prompting, she turned around and looked directly into my lens, bringing much more raw emotion to the scene. #ShutterAndSoul #BehindTheScenes #Photojournalism #LondonPhotography #VisualStorytelling"
