Between Here and There Dreams Then and Now.

(-23-13 6pm the porch-002

Porch sitting as the sun set. Past I thought I’d end up in an old farm but the road between Here and There has had many turns some sharp each making There closer than Here. I’ve past this porch 2-4 times a week for over a year as I go to visit a sick friend. As I told the owners I have been stocking your porch lol. In truth I have watching times of day light and falling leaves seasons. Sunday I went by and knew the next day at 6pm would be perfect. Arriving at 5:45 I had time to park and walk to the front this is the second image, perfect timing. Ya that’s how I work I could have exposed it at any other time and Post Processed it, but that isn’t me! Nail the exposure and you have the image and emotion you wanted sure I dodged a bit in ceiling shadow. The Golden Hour…………………………. peace pjc

While in Willi I had a porch where Laurel and I would watch the early golden hour with coffee so peaceful.

Norwich Ct. Angles Triangles Simplicity of Creating

02.20.2012 by Peter J. Crowley // 1 Comment

Still here in the past this from 2001 an image I sometimes love and sometimes feel it is a near miss. Image made on film scanned from print with a little burning and dodging to fit this medium for viewing. Prints of course are the best way of viewing. My images are simple, not simplistic. Simplicity is the hardest concept to grasp. In this latest and greatest new and improved world. Perhaps the shot is too busy? Perhaps mundane? Well my B+W is all shot on film composed in the viewfinder printed without cropping. I am repeating myself sorry. A story partially told you can ponder and add the rest of the story. See Andrea’s comment. While drinking coffee late this morning I was on another site where the photographer had loaded a roll of film yesterday and last night dreamed he had blown the whole roll. “Waking” in the dream he tried to look at the histogram but film has not histogram nor preview window on the back. Awake and posting on Google+ he was considering the idea of throwing out the film and putting away the film camera and throwing out the film without exposing. I guess he could not work without crutches anymore. Perhaps he was kidding? But I know all too many photographers who seek an instant destination rather than a journey. So what do you think? Is my image to busy? Does it lead you to memories? enjoy pjc
