The Daily November 17th Wind, Rain, Dark

11.17.2015 by Peter J. Crowley // 2 Comments

Tuesday November 17th 2015. Darkness, Darkness, winter rains whipped by high winds I hunker down inside my virtual life. Seeking the highlight through drawn shades. The lights blink like my attention span. Blips on my screen don’t respond the more I engage the more I feel it is a waste of time draining my emotional strength.

DSC_0057 S15 B-3 Stain Glass 8-17-15Image made in church have had a few very diverse feelings of what I am saying here from dark,  inspiring, sinister, sometimes I know what I want to say with an image. Other times it is the light the shapes leading to ambiguity. This is one frame not post processed except for size. August 17th a photo day with Roger I make this image thinking about the light and design of stained glass, a path to the light, seeking the high light. ISO 1600 1/80th at F-8.  From dark to light the windows lead or is it the other direction? Metaphors, Ambiguity a 1000 changing words. What do you see? 

The life of an artist is a dream drifting through images, words a visual language sometimes clear often ambiguous. A Wonderful Dream. I have been awake too much lately!

DSC_0151 Ss15 Shd+High LgtShadow 20 Drk High 4 Tacoma Stairs11-7-150A day in Tacoma with Roger. Dodging rain drops with historic conversation Roger grew up in the area and knew much of the City’s history. Yesterday was the 75 anniversary of  the Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse. The bridge in use now is behind these stairs. I like the stairs better. As I continue to shoot Diggie I fight with the speed of process and the apparent need to add new “content” daily. I don’t do “content” I make images, art. A rant in the future on nomenclature. For now as I prepped this image here I think B+W maybe a better image. Ponder or post back to PS see image in B+W? Like the red stone though. Ponder or post? Post.   ponder later pretty monochromatic image though   enjoy pjc

Photographic Art       Another Design image B+W but with a warm tone added.
