Portrait, Ethnographer
Just finished my rough map. The live fieldnoting was very useful to me, especially for getting my bearings in the participant observation process. I was able to make a whole day of the Old North End, traveling around and identifying sites of interest and reflecting on the environment itself. I would have liked to get a few more images of people, but I respect the wishes of participants who didn't want to be photographed.
In potential future projects, my live fieldnotes will be more effective if I broaden my focus and work up the courage to talk to more people. For now, I got to indulge my interests in architecture and planning.
