This photo was taken outside Vauxhall Station on a foggy day. I used my phone first. When I tried my camera, the bird was already gone. This moment could easily be lost. For me, memory works the same way. It is fast, unclear, and we don’t have time to control it. We catch it with instinct, or we miss it. This image became very popular online, more than many photos I carefully planned. It made me realise that being present is more important than being perfect. Sometimes instinct sees before we think.
