GEOMETRY

Here are three very recent B&W shots. The middle image was a test shot that I thought filled out the triptych. I've always been interested with bleakness of this wall. The bottom shot was a combination of good elements and nice lighting. The top shot I think is very good. It has the right feel.

OVERPASS

I've taken to walking with my (digital) camera. This is something photographers in their biographies say they always do. I never have. I've always made mental notes of images and the emotions they evoked. I would later go on a shooting flurry, trying to recapture that mental note. It made me understand what I was looking at but it creating huge gaps in my body of work. I walked by this overpass yesterday...


SPARSE

These locations couldn't be further apart socio-economically. The fifth floor of the Museum of Modern Art and the New Edwin Hotel in the east end. They do share a certain bleak geometry. I'm very fond of this so called negative space. Especially when that's all there is.
