Lost in the Supermarket


I was doing a quick shop a little while ago and tried something new.  Used the shopping cart to steady the camera in lieu of a tripod.  I was using Fuji 160 film, and next time might use something a bit faster, since I really had to fiddle with the balance of light and color with Photoshop (having the negs scanned now rather than printed after processing).  There were a few that worked well, but these are two I liked best.  Peppers a just sexy for some reason.

Zoo Bridge

I was in Philadelphia earlier this summer and was able to indulge my interest in shooting bridges. This one is a railroad bridge running over the Schuylkill near the zoo.

Old Boats


The image looks I think like it was taken a century ago. The boat hasn't been there that long, but I do know it hasn't moved from the side of the house in years.

From the Archives

Here are a couple from 2006 - the one above from December, the lower one from August. I love the overpasses here in Los Angeles, there's something at once graceful and bleak about them. We spend so much time on the freeways, never moving as fast as we'd like but still too fast to really appreciate these things. I'd like one day to be able to walk around on an empty stretch - especially one where three or four bridges converge - and shoot, or even better to take the Holga up in a helicopter and look down on them (does it make sense to use such a cheap tool in such an expensive endeavor?).

Snow

It's hot and muggy in Los Angeles, and it's got me thinking of snow and Montana.
