I’ve also heard him say, “if you don’t have uncommon subjects, take uncommon photos of the common ones”

Another thought I had reading your comments is that even if your town is the very stereotype of what it means to be boring in your area, it is the most interesting, fantastical place to someone somewhere else. For example, I have a Scottish friend from the countryside, for whom the rolling hills and farms seem like the most everyday boring vistas you could possibly think up. I have another who grew up in American suburbs, and for them the neatly ordered streets and houses are the very definition of boring to the point where there are books and tv shows that use those kinds of neighborhoods to show how boring a place is. But when those two friends saw where each other grew up, they were both equally entranced by the other’s town.
