Unlike yesterday’s picture, this one is real. It was made on black and white film, printed and eventually scanned. Then, I tinkered with it. Why this change from spring flowers? Simple. Until my back heals properly, I’m a little house bound. It’s not as bad as you might think. It is painful as it couldContinue reading “My Approach”

Everything You Have
Direction changed. Slightly. This work is opportunistic. I go to the picture. Or, where the dog leads me. For those of you who are a little new to Storyteller, I post something called, “What the dog saw.” The series has no schedule. I just add to it when she finds a picture. She found thisContinue reading “Everything You Have”
Another Way
“All art is autobiographical.” “All meaning is made by the viewer.” This little project may come to a quicker end than I originally thought. Because. I have no idea what this means to me. I’m fairly certain that it’s not autobiographical. It’s a little peaceful. Neither my work or I, thrive on a steady dietContinue reading “Another Way”
New Blooms
Unlike other regions of the country, we in Southeast Louisiana are into our second phase of new spring blooms. Some flowers have bloomed, flowered, died and now look like typical summer foliage. This has been going on since mid-January. We only had about four days of winter cold. We’ve already had many low 80 degree days.Continue reading “New Blooms”
In the Spring
Spring is about change. Rebirth. Change. Maybe. All I know is that I’m going to make some changes. Some to me. Some to my shooting style. At least for what I am loosely calling the spring series. As you know, my general style is bright, high color, contrasty and fairly graphic. When I photograph somethingContinue reading “In the Spring”
Day Breaks
Dawn. Day Break. Sunrise. What else is there to add? Except, enjoy your day. Whatever time, and where you are in the world, you happen to see this post.
Leaving
Change. In the air. Spring came. Leaves fell. Seed pods fell. Pollen escaped from the pods. Allergies blew up. It’s bad. Real bad. Everybody is walking around sneezing, sniffling and coughing. Then the stuffy head stupids arrived. Nothing helps. We hope for rain. It’s due later today. Maybe it will knock down the seed podsContinue reading “Leaving “
And, Finally
It’s not that I’m out of pictures of Super Sunday. It’s because I’ve used my take for a week. I may be boring you. And, the culture is hard to understand. Especially if you don’t live in New Orleans. Even though it doesn’t look it, there is a lot of ritual. A lot of protocol. A lotContinue reading “And, Finally”
A Day Too Late
Art. Let’s start with this. From Bob Dylan. A brand new interview about music, art and the nature of things. It’s here on his website https://bobdylan.com/news/qa-with-bill-flanagan/ should you want to read the entire piece. Here’s just a bit, as it applies to my thoughts for today. “I’m sure it has, there’s always some precedent –Continue reading “A Day Too Late”
