Our Jaded Internet Generation

I’m old. I remember the world before the Internet. I also sort of remember the golden age of the internet ( you never really realize you are in a golden age of anything, till its over and you have some perspective.)

To me it seems like social media popped up overnight and in the blink of an eye we kind of ruined it all with our greed.

But I’m here to tell you that the magic of the internet is still alive. The wonder of discovering new things. Of not only finding interesting people but actually being to message them and then amazement of having them message you back.

I’ve had a lot of crazy ideas and most of them never worked. Somehow this crazy idea is actually succeeding. I reached out to the best mobile photographers out there and asked them a series of questions. To my utter amazement they actually responded. In upcoming posts you will see their answers.

Thank you to all of the amazing photographers who participated and helped bring my crazy idea to life.
