Olympia High School Shape and Line

Olympia High School

March 10th 2018

Ilford Delta 400 Rodinal 1/25 9.5 mins

All anyone ever photographs is light. The subject merely a vehicle to transform the light into emotion.

Simplicity the hardest concept to grasp.

Not my usual shapes but an excellent subject for an unfamiliar film. 

My eyes and auto focus allow me to shoot film this spring. So this season of new life I wander through documenting it all in B+W. It is new life for me or the revisiting an old life, my favorite time. Just me and the rectangle.     peace pjc

Wim Wenders and Me

02.27.2018 by Peter J. Crowley // 3 Comments

Recently read an article in The Guardian about Wim Wenders Polaroids. His thoughts on the Art Photography Genre rang true they could be my words.  “The culture has changed. It has all gone. I really don’t know why we stick to the word photography any more. There should be a different term, but nobody cared about finding it.”
“It’s not just the meaning of the image that has changed – the act of looking does not have the same meaning. Now, it’s about showing, sending and maybe remembering. It is no longer essentially about the image. The image for me was always linked to the idea of uniqueness, to a frame and to composition. You produced something that was, in itself, a singular moment. As such, it had a certain sacredness. That whole notion is gone.” That was my world and will continue to be it isn’t the problem of the copiers of things in front of them it is my problem for being unable to accept content and quantity as the new normal. Technically excellent void of emotion “What program did you use”? peace pjc
