I don't roam around with a camera and never did. I took pictures in spurts, for my books, for some assignments or on special occasions. Like people who take out their cameras for Christmas and birthdays. Each time, like them, probably, I feel itโs the first time and as if I would have to relearn the moves. Luckily, it comes pretty fast, like riding a bike.
