shadow

and so i go into the darkroom with a photo i have already taken

usually a portrait

i take my unexposed photographic paper and i start to recreate the light from the portrait

i fold and twist and expose the paper to light and do it again

trying to pull the light form one photograph and place it in another

each print is then solarized during development

loosing all true whites and leaving behind different degrees of grey

we decided to get creative

What happens when i play with color paper and black/white developing chemicals?

people or no people?

i always make portraits in one way or another, i love it.

but a series with no people, or subject at all?

scary

or maybe you prefer shapes?

free standing

a new darkroom process.

a saturday

our new hill that we explored

inspiration - ryan mcginley

the most stunning work.

thoughts?

i am playing with something new & creating a million tangents.

everything i photograph is inspired by the science of light.

& each image is taken on my 35mm Mamiya.
