Picture Post: Feb6

from my drives. Distinct manners. Made within 90 days but over 1800 miles.

Picture is a surface rendered. The picture on the left, the yellow one, is greater transformation than what made the source scene. The righter one, foliage and fence, closer to expectation of the “photograph” — it is realistic. As a projection on your screen it isn’t a real object. Your eye is the printout.

Either of these could have been a result of darkroom work, neither was. In terms from the 70s, the solarization would have been the easier. The “fence” would have needed masking, two types of film, taking a day, because of dry time for the sheets of film. Drying was often the time user. Batch up, and have multiple drying cabinets was the answer as your lab gained clients.

picture posts are pages from my sketchbook; the bits of raw.

these are from early day fog. walking the easy paths.

[although i always intend to return to the written page with addition reaction, i don’t. it is ongoing question: the addition or the consolidation. My answer has always been (since the middle of last century) work on my own for my own… expand the circle little. I take a table viewpoint of the world.

Picture Post: Crunch

Too many pictures behind. Becoming trapped by the mangle of the outside world, I have lost time, and filled in too many posts of words. They do help; that is the reason for a blog — catching your breath. Breathing through the fingers– seeing the world with your hands.

And feet. Walking in cold weather, not that this is cold for much of the country. It has seemed much colder since November.
