i found these two estranged gloves laying amongst chunks of broken concrete at a construction site... were they greeting or saying goodbye to one another, about to shake after winning a bet or about to fight or offer an apology... the white glove appears to be the proactive participant in this scenario.

I’m taking an art photography class at the Evanston Arts Center. A few weeks back our assignment was to take some photos as metaphors – i.e. the photo of something is also a symbol of or suggests something else. I took my lead from the famed landscape photographer Ansel Adams and decided on landscape as a metaphor for the sacred. I headed down to Starved Rock State Park since it has the most dramatic landscape features within a hundred and five miles of Evanston. My success as a landscape photographer was modest at best, but before heading back to Evanston I decided on a stop at the dam to see if I could get a photo or two of some wintering Bald Eagles. They were keeping some distance from the observation deck that day, but I was able to get some panning shots of one eagle when it fished by the dam.

 

I am not particularly enamored with patriotic symbols, so imagine my surprise when I reviewed my photos and found that my best shot of the eagle also included an American flag. I rather like the contrast between the industrial near bank and the wild far bank. It also helps that the flag is a bit tattered.

walking at the Wadsworth farm... came upon a pile of junk in front of one the majestic oaks...

Lovely shot I took today while fitting the bathroom's extractor fan. You're looking out into the front garden, and can just see the perch for that recently pictured pigeon.

Pet cemetary in Ireland. Did the name influence the shape of the gravestone?

Google set up a mailbox with a stack of blank postcards and invited attendees to send messages home. I didn't do that, but I did use one to create a photo that may illustrate a future story about the importance of encryption in transit.

An open notebook.

 

I used the notebook as a way to represent self reflection through writing or drawing. I think this is a conceptual shot due to the angle and mood created in this photo.
