I’m sure that at least one person is going to look at this and begin to think: “Is he ever going to just take a picture of something and then that picture will look like that thing again?”
All I can say to that person is this: “I’m being influenced by a mix of modern art and impressionism currently. I like recording trails of light and finding out what the picture will look like afterwards. I do have an idea of what I’m going to get, but I never really know. That is exciting to me. It is currently dark by the time I get off of work and this is a type of photography I can do very easily at this time.”
They then might reply: “If I took a picture like that, I’d throw it away.”
I can only reply: “Look closer.”
This person would then reply: “Look closer at what? Your pictures? The ones that I’m throwing away?”
I would only reply: “Look closer.”
I took these pictures that record more of an impression of the subject rather than the actual form of the subject while I was driving home from work yesterday. I was torn on explaining the subject of these pictures or leaving it entirely to your imagination. I’ll leave it to your imagination.
