a mix of “chroma” set, church set, from the persistent set: Wo ist Tejas — from the long “in-process” edit-table.

some are alternates, none of these are meant as alternations, nor alterations.

Q: Are these different photographs?

As impression changes, is that a different photograph. I frequently make several impressions of a situation.During my film years, learning that multiple exposures provided more darkroom possibilities–such as combination printing.

As thought experiment (better if you do this with film) expose an underexposed street scene of light toned moving people. Combine that with a normally exposed scene… The movement will become a ghost image in the final print. Ghost won’t contribute to shadows …of course, layers and blending is a comparable “drop-in” “drop-out” solution to the “shoot-thru” glass, ghost shots that occurred frequently enough not to be a surprise in other eras.

footsteps. in the grain

boom Diddy boom Dilley boom .

do footprints last longer in the sand or the snow

which last longer: footprints in the sand or the snow 

when I ask the question , do you hear me asking about footprints in  Sand and foot prints in snow ,or do you hear what i said.?

footprints in the sand was the only footprints in the question. 

is it warmer in the summer or the city . yes.

but all this is lost to a model of language, of what was a city of people.

20years on

The valley has become puerile and privileged .

San Francisco ,when it was The  city, mattered ,a place to mature . books, booklets. when the gift was given .
