Two Photos from the Week
Having just moved two children into college, the frequency of these piles in September is alarming. Is everything disposable? (I could take this picture every day in late August/early September.)
Hard to know which way to go sometimes.
Stuff
If I were a real photographer, I’d blow these two photos up next to each other. They’re from back to back days in July; one was taken outside a Junkyard on Grays Ave. The other is a pair of frames found on Powelton Ave this morning. One represents the junk we buy and then throw out. The other captures the stuff we save — this human was on-time to school during the 1954 school year and seventy years later the framed certificate was on a street corner in West Philly.
Monday AM Walk
Helpful neighbor on the 4800 block of Hazel. There’s a hole.
Clark Park. A human had collected a lot of their belongings and set up a space where I believe they were sleeping. It looks like the city came and moved most of their possessions to the curb. Mirror stayed.
Photography Assignments
I like taking and making photographs. I’m trying.
This article/review provides a list of assignments, based on the titles of the various exhibitions:
Neither give nor throw away
Beneath the surface
Journey to the center
There’s a Lee Friedlander photograph of a Dallas freeway highlighted in the article that I want to recreate on the Spring Garden bridge.
Sunday Post-Storm
No filter. This was the light and the sky. Backyard, 8:10PM.
Snow Porches
Thurs Graffiti
From one to another
There’s something about standing in one place and seeing another. This shot from the Woodlands into the layers across the river attempts to capture that sense. I want to try this shot when it’s not overcast.
