I just checked and see that Melissa O'Shaughnessy has a Substack account, but she hasn't posted yet. It would be worth contacting her to see if she is interested in discussing her work.
The community of women street photographers is huge and it's really great to feel part of an entity. Melissa O'Shaughnessy is a wonderful inspiring woman and we will be more than happy to have her work showcases in StoryDrops!
Cool

There are a great many amazing women street photographers, but their work isn't as well known as it deserves to be. Anyone reading this might want to check out her works and other women street photographers at https://www.womenstreetphotographers.com/photographers-v#/melissa-oshaughnessy/

Excellent. I wrote my last Substack post at 4:00 am. Insomniacs unite!
I second Andrés choice of photographers to follow and learn from. Melissa O'Shaughnessy (her book, "Perfect Strangers" is very good) studied under Joel Meyerowitz, who, from all accounts, is a very generous teacher and mentor. He also writes well about street photography (Bystander: A History of Street Photography is elegant and very useful). And, for colour, Alex Webb is hard to beat.
We are going to build a community of insomniacs photographers soon!! ;)
Thanks for sharing your inspiration here Mark, it's always a huge benefit for other readers (and us as well!)
