Started as three bracketed images taken in infrared using a modified Canon EOS 5D. Plenty of manipulation of the colours to give predominantly two complimentary ones.
This man was writing an article for a newspaper. I immediately thaught at the tv show "Sex in the city"
(see the image on alikaragoz.net)
I don't do much compositing of my images. And when I do it I enjoy letting the process lead me. A while back "Field Work" ranked 1st in my camera club (projected creative division).
Weird stuff that went into this:
- an old cat litter box
- dried, melted adhesive on a wall at an industrial site

A specific, creative struggle is going on at the moment.
It's true. I admit. It is a panging question.
What's next?
How does artistic progression occur without redundancy?
Does this happen to you?
Creating images is so very important to me. It feeds both my wants and needs of expression and communication. I believe that when you are shy or introverted, in particular, photography offers a voice; a presence with proof that all, sometimes socially awkward, inconveniently timid, and the often meek can be not only heard but expressive. Photography gifts this not only to myself but to many others.
Without the use of words, an image can resonate with another human like nothing spoken. Images gift the viewer an opportunity to interpret a soulful message specific to their needs. A communicative conduit through which the viewer receives precisely the emotion that at he/she needs or wants. Be it sadness, peacefulness, happiness, positivity, negativity, love, etc ... Isn't that amazing?
Think about it.
I do.
It's huge.
As 2019 begins, I wish to transform my photography fetish and move forward into sharing a more stimulating and creative forum. I am not a goal-oriented human, but perhaps it is time to structure a few things. I am struggling to make headway in the creative direction that my heart wishes to travel. It is frustrating.
I want to try something new; such as, write a novel and or a book of poetry, teach a class, offer online workshops, hold a photography retreat, open a studio, and more.
I even start a 365 on January 1st, eyes rolling, knowing I have much more important, challenging photography things to accomplish. I have done a 365 previously, four years ago. Why revisit it? Do I find ways to procrastinate creating obstacles to reaching my true wants? Hmmm.
What is the "thing" you are struggling to uncover or explore? As we move into another year of our lives, in which we so very much want to be productive not only for ourselves but for others, what is yours?
For me, the first step is going to be clearing away the fog, the obstacles that are requiring my time which is inhibiting my ability to do the things of creative choice. Prioritize I suppose, would be most specific. Seems like a great place in which to begin.

Panging by Angie Lambert
There is a want
and a need
to be inspirational.
Stealthy,
a blur reveals.
Teasing with clarity
and snippets of precision,
it feeds.
What is next?
I do hear you.
Mind and body hungry,
needing less of the blur
rather than more,
the pang continues.
