    Thinking about making a blog series about scrapping

    Hi gang,



    I was thinking the other day, as I was out taking pictures, that I think it’d make for an interesting blog series/ Medium post about the typical life of a scrapper. I’ve been into photography for around 10 years or so. I would think it’d be cool to do a photo essay, spending a few days with guys who do this part time, full time and anywhere in between.

    I’d like your input!

    -Tom

    Such a project would have great historical value if it focused on a scrappers life during the coronavirus. Just thinking of all of the photo essays centered on the Great Depression because I think we are living through such a time now. This challenge will be analyzed for decades to come.
    Give back more to this world than we take.

    Making some type of record or documentary about this time is history that you can be a witness to. It will never be forgotten.
