Art and the sofa
This is in my favorite hotel room (that’s not odd, is it, to have a favorite hotel room?). And I can’t wait to get back down there…

PS – One of my regular commenters wondered what this looked like in color, so here you go (even though it’s still more or less monochrome:
Shroud
This sort of struck me as a menacing little scene, so I didn’t stick around to investigate. Keep in mind, though, that I shot this in 2013 – now I probably would have not only stuck around, but would have made about 120 more images while I was there.
Things change….

Intersects the space at hand
The restaurant staff was busy that night.

One of us is a voyeur
The only reason I was working with a model was because we sort of had to, for the class I was taking. It was weird and uncomfortable and intimidating at first. By the time we were done, it was still all of those things, but I’d powered my way through.
One of my photography friends, who took the same class a year before I did, was so inspired by the day of working with models that she’s headed off in an interesting new direction with an infrared camera and nude models underwater. Her work is stunning.
Me? Nope. I’m sticking with the usual stuff. But I just wanted to show my loyal reader(s) that I could, too, shoot models. In case any of you had been wondering.

On the subject of waiting
I almost never arrange a shot. My subjects usually just show up in front of me/the camera.
This is a rare exception, from last summer’s photography class. I am pretty sure I was going for something profound, and am just as sure that I failed to achieve it. But, still, it shows what kind of lighting you can achieve with a iPhone, placed strategically in a dark closet.
