Stairway to…….

I found this place in a trail guidebook.  It’s funny that I’ve been on the trails in this area a number of times and never made my way to this area.  It’s part of the remnants of an old public campground that closed many years ago.  Most people that hike in the area follow the river trail that leads to the waterfall.  On this particular trip, I decided to seek out the hillside trail and see what was left.

Seven Pounds

I’ve been going through my photographs from the past year and found this.  When I took it, I didn’t realize the leg of the tripod was resting on the edge of the scale.

2nd and Main

I was driving around recently and saw this abandoned gas station.  When I walked around the other side of the building, I made this photograph.   I had read an interview in PDN magazine with Stephen Shore and Gregory Crewdson a few days before and saw the parallels between this scene and Shore’s “Beverly Boulevard and La Brea Avenue” photograph.

Isolette

 

This is my newest film camera- a 1950’s Agfa Isolette folder.  I’m looking forward to using this.

 

 

Overexposed

Over the past year, I’ve been experimenting with different light.  This is the full illumination of a magicube through the Fresnel lens on the Big Shot camera.  I wasn’t expecting it to overexpose like this, but I like the result.

Reflections of Winter

It’s been tough photographing outside with all the snow we’ve had in the Northeast.  This is from one of the last snowstorms shooting from the deck.  I thought the reflections of light off the windows cast an interesting shadow.

It’s Been Awhile

Haven’t posted much over the past year, but I’m still taking photos.  This is a shot from July.  I was looking at the water and the flames and tried to capture them.

Cartier-Bresson at MoMA

I was fortunate enough to spend today at the Museum of Modern Art to see the exhibit Henri Cartier-Bresson,  The Modern Century.  I was very impressed with the size and range of the exhibition.  The photographs were amazing, most of which I had never seen before.  It was interesting to compare some of the photographs on the wall with their appearance in a magazine layout.  The exhibit runs through June 28th and it is well worth the time.
