Even Reddit was not niche enough for some things. Like a proper street photography subreddit.

Yep, I'm still using a pixel 3a. Was running amazingly well up until a boot loop forced me to upgrade to android 12. It's still okay, but you can feel it's not as responsive. I don't see a reason to upgrade while it is running so smoothly. I could be happier with a better camera, but I have a real camera, which I carry almost anywhere, so that's okay.

Sadly, my Pixel 3A is not supported. The cutoff point is the next gen of the phones.

Yeah, grid walking would be frustrating to attempt here, haha.

Thanks for the information and the discussion! I'll definitely check the website out. I used to just manually map Google's My Maps, but it got tedious.

Thanks, glad you're enjoying it! Definitely brings more value for me too, even if I think that most of the time photos should speak for themselves. But context and background information can be very entertaining and bring new understanding of an image as well.

@[email protected] tell us more about the British photographer Tony Ray-Jones.

[–] AsimovsRobot 3 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Yeah, I totally understand! It just really resonates with the idea of street photography, which is a lot of walking, a lot of looking, and a lot of appreciation of the little things, the little moments or visual accents that happen in daily life. You're welcome to join in [email protected] to check out what I'm talking about.

What software do you use to track your walks and map them out so thoroughly?

[–] AsimovsRobot 2 points 1 year ago (8 children)

That's very thorough. You should also take photos along your walks, you're definitely stumbling upon interesting things and people.
