Traces

I have not abandoned black and white completly, I have been working on a few things.

This is one of them. An idea about what is left behind when people leave a living or working environment.

All these were taken in a street in Wan Chai. The buildings are gone now. What was once a thriving community will soon be highrise offices and apartments.







Comments, insults and suggestions please.

Cliché revisited

OK, so I think there might be some mileage in this idea.






So, these are two modernist cliché shots, obviously I hope.

External Domesticity

Yes, I know, a wall.

Get over it, I like photographing them .....

..... they don't talk back, they don't yell at you when you photograph them and they are there when you want to go back and re-shoot what you stuffed up. Well actually this is Hong Kong so they often aren't. More on this earlier, and no doubt, later.



Oh yeah ....

Lovely wall

I like walls, and I walk past this one a lot. Today there wasn't a truck, bus, taxi, car, van, group of people standing in front of it. So what does a boy do, he takes his shiny new camera and takes a photograph of it. Or more to the point he points an electronic device at it which converts light to ones and zeros then stores them as electrical charges that he then spends hours trying to get from the f*%@#ing thing to his computer...... And I thought learning to scan was hard!

I'm thinking of taking it back..... stupid digital stuff. Check back later when I have got used to it.
