When I started learning photography a few years ago, I was highly impressed by landscape photography: seeing beautiful images of seas and mountains.

Eventually I realised as someone livin' in a city, those are not parts of my city. Well, there's a beach in Jakarta but the view isn't particularly exciting. And of course it takes some time to reach the place, due to traffic jams.

And lockdown/social distancing in 2020 changed my perception about photography. From landscape/street photography to something I can photograph within 20 meters. For me, that means capturing abstract patterns like stones, leaves, peeling paint on the wall, etc. There's always something interesting as long as you are willing to "see"
