icm (obligatory shot)
The sunset started in spectacular and over the course of a half-hour or so, just kept getting better and better.
After a while, I took a break from making regular sunset photos, and decided to do some with intentional camera movement. It’s kind of a cliche, a little redundant, perhaps derivative, but still I liked swirling the oranges and yellow together.

Scottish mist blurs the night
I can see how living in a misty climate could get old. But since I don’t live in a misty place, it seemed enchanting and delightful. And – bonus! – it opened up the possibility of utilizing the reflective, wet pavement and doing some intentional camera movement images.

Here’s the latest of my sporadic series of ICM images. This one was made last summer in Chicago, in the Lakeshore East Park.

Sometimes if the light is right, and your mind is, too, everything you see will seem like a ghost of itself.

If you were to draw a line from Buddy Holly’s grave to my parents’ graves, it would intersect this statue by noted sculptor Charles Umlauf.
I’ve photographed it and written about the statue’s history in a previous post. This time, when I went to photograph it I was in a different mood than that post – less documentary and more emotional. And so that’s how this image earned a spot in my new series that I am calling “the world as we knew it.”
