Take it Easy

 

Fahrenheit 451: In the book, there is an underground band of rebels who attempt to preserve the written word by memorizing great works of literature. Asked which book he'd commit to memory in such a circumstance, Bradbury answered, "It would be A Christmas Carol. I think that book has influenced my life more than almost any other book, because it's a book about life, it's a book about death. It's a book about triumph."

 

Which book would you save?

Narrative. Narrative! NARRATIVE!

 

I went for a walk in nature recently and came across a man shouting Narrative! Narrative! Narrative!

 

I enquired as to what was distressing him so.

 

His dog had run away from him and wouldn't come back.

 

I enquired why he was shouting "Narrative!". It turned out that was the name of his dog.

 

I pointed out that he had lost control of his own narrative...

 

He seemed less than pleased.

This photo is part of a new series. I know, it's about time. Several years ago while shooting my Parking Deck project, I photographed some benches here and there and was on the lookout for them, but never considered doing a series. Benches are not common in parking decks. After all, people park their cars there; they don't go to sit and lounge around. Last year, a FLICKR friend, Werner (www.flickr.com/photos/96980838@N04/), suggested that I do a series on benches. I dismissed the idea but it remained in the back of my mind. Then recently I decided, why not? I discovered that while benches are everywhere, those interesting enough for photography are hard to find. There are charming, quirky, and ornamental benches enough to fill volumes. But it is not just the bench that matters, it's the setting. I was looking for locations where the bench is just one element among other interesting components, some times only one other thing, yielding a minimalist composition, other times a layered scene with many parts. Both of these, I discovered, are rare. So, the result is a short series --- something novel from me. A short, attentive series, I hope --- an experiment in quiet narratives, negative space, color and light and shadow.

 

To see more in this series, check out Benches.

the underpass is a concrete tube that pulls everything towards the light at its end. one man is already there. a small, sharp silhouette, about to disappear. the other is closer. a large, soft blur, still in the shadow of the tunnel. he raises a hand. it is a wave, a final gesture. a goodbye. the distance between them is the entire story. one is a memory, sharp and distant. the other is the present, soft and already fading.

The assignment that I am working on is narrative. Please let me know what you think. I have looked at it for so long now that my brain is totally frazzled and I feel totally incapable of coherent thoughts.

I think I got the Ansco Color Clipper about ten years ago. I haven't "seriously" shot with it in a few years, but I brought it along with me this past weekend.

 

I'll probably shoot more with it this season. I'm not really sure of its purpose just yet, but I'll find one. Or I won't, and that's fine too.

 

This was taken in the early morning inside Yakima Canyon. I also shot a similar scene with the RB67, but it didn't work out so well.

I photographed this street vendor January 7th 2016. I was amused at the variety of pop culture now 'vintage'.. oddly Davie Bowie died 2 days later.. it is poignant and culturally interesting that he was 'vintage' while still alive.. I found this particularly fascinating given the random, component elements unwittingly arranged in the bins

Another from yesterday. I almost walked past it, but then I noticed this strange sort of narrative going on.
