Urban Photography
Underneath ~
This photograph is of the underside of an old theater marquee in Herrin, Illinois. Taken with my iPhone and slightly color-manipulated.
Feeling a little Fauvist today? ~
This is a very small crop from a photo of a car with a Carbondale business establishment’s window reflected on the side. I boosted the saturation to the extreme and tinkered with the tint. This was taken with my iPhone. It is, I hope, a bit Kandinsky-like.
Every glance you take ~
Another iPhone photo. “Every Glance You Take” is the title of an exhibit of abstract photography I currently have up at a local arts center. It reflects the fact that abstract and minimalist compositions are everywhere around us just waiting to be seen, and thus are in fact representational at bottom…just usually not at the scale or perspective we’re used to negotiating as a species. I found this pattern in the door of a women’s restroom at a local chain restaurant.

At the car wash ~
These photographs were taken with my recently acquired iPhone. I did little to them other than cropping and brightening. I’m happy to finally have a camera that is with me all the time.

Red Door
Reflector detail no. 3 ~
Another reflector photo. This one is highly cropped from the original. I like it for the colors. It’s odd; I think my writing is much stronger than my photography, but my writing draws much less interest. Go figure. Perhaps I’ve had too much trouble being funny lately.
Reflector Detail no. 3

Two for a blue day ~
These were taken with a little Olympus point-and-shoot. I hadn’t done anything with the photos until now.

Breaker, breaker ~
I was excited by the colors I found painted over some graffiti on a breaker box downtown. These are just cropped a little and color-corrected. I may try doing something more with them. Taken with my Fuji X10.
