My Street Photography

Street photography is a type of photography that features subjects in candid situations within public places. Street photographs are mirror images of society, displaying “un-manipulated” scenes, with usually unaware subjects.” My style is most offend compared to that of Robert Frank.

street photography, a genre of photography that records everyday life in a public place. The very publicness of the setting enables the photographer to take candid pictures of strangers, often without their knowledge. Street photographers do not necessarily have a social purpose in mind, but they prefer to isolate and capture moments which might otherwise go unnoticed.

Beginnings

Numerous photographers, including Alfred Stieglitz, Berenice Abbott, and William Eggleston, took photos on the street but did not consider themselves street photographers. Stieglitz, for example, photographed the streets of New York City and Paris at the turn of the 20th century during inclement weather, the effects of which were captured in his images. Abbott took a different approach: in the 1930s she documented urban architecture from below, emphasizing the contrast of light and dark and the magnitude of the built environment. Eggleston elevated colour photography to a fine art in his large-scale pictures of everyday, common places, people, and things often found in public or on the street. Though he was influenced by many of those who influenced the street photographers of the 1950s and ’60s, he was not chiefly interested in capturing the spirit of the street.

The impulse to visually document people in public began with 19th-century painters such as Edgar Degas, Édouard Manet, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, who worked side by side with photographers attempting to capture the essence of urban life. Some used photographs as an aid to their painting. Painters, sketchers, and photographers alike treated the street as their studio, recording the mundane and the spectacular, the quintessential figures and the bizarre. Artists manipulated their medium as best they could to evoke spontaneity and movement in a static image in two dimensions. Impressionists such as Claude Monet introduced sketchy brushstrokes into their compositions to express movement and change over time. Monet also painted the same subject repeatedly from the same perspective but at different times of day to see how the change in light would affect the subject, something a camera could do quite efficiently. At first the camera was seen as a tool that could replace the artist’s hand, but over time the camera’s unique capacities—its instantaneousness and ability to see more than the human eye (and with better focus)—clearly set a photograph apart from a painting and made photography not an adjunct study but rather a distinct medium valuable in and of itself.

Landscapes


Fine art landscape photography shows spaces within the world, sometimes vast and unending, but other times microscopic. Landscape photographs typically capture of the emotion that a place emits. I most often photograph the Pine lands and have been called the Ansel Adams of the Pine lands. The Pines use to be called the Pine Barrens.
I hope you feel what I did in taking these photographs.

The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity… and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself. William Blake

Abstract Art


“Why is abstract art perfectly aligned with the spiritual? Abstract art can capture all manner of thoughts, feelings, and emotions. According to scholar and curator Kirk Varnedoe, who wrote Pictures of Nothing: Abstract Art Since Pollock, it ‘absorbs projection and generates meaning ahead of naming, establishing the form of things unknown, sui generis, in their peculiar complexities,’ Moreover, abstraction offers a ‘form of enrichment and alteration of experience denied to the fixed mimesis of known things.’ It expands beyond depictions of the real world and engenders its own reality. As our ideas of spirituality change over time, abstract idioms evolve, and through abstraction we ‘regenerate ourselves by bathing in the extreme…’ It is precisely because abstraction is on ‘the borderland around the opening into nothingness’ that it is such an effective means of expressing the spiritual. Liberated from the constraints of depicting the real world, abstract art is free to explore the invisible Other. It can reflect the subjective reality of the spiritual –  inner states of being and spiritual presence – through materials, form, and color alone. For such an adventure, what vehicle – with its ability to convey the complex range of human experience – is more adept at engaging the spiritual in art?”

New Jersey Pine lands


The Pine Barrens, also known as the Pinelands or simply the Pines, is a heavily forested area of coastal plain stretching across more than seven counties of New Jersey. The name “pine barrens” refers to the area's sandy, acidic, nutrient-poor soil #pinelands

I really enjoy hiking the Pine lands and got my inspiration from Tom Browns book “The Tracker”
Tom’s Browns story is an amazing read and I find my self lost in trail that Tom must have hiked. Tom was taught by his Apache grandfather on how to track animals and survive in the Pine Barren wildness.
The photos I have shared in this gallery are from my hikes in the Pine lands Preservation region of New Jersey. #pinelands

Bridges


What is a bridge?

A structure spanning and providing passage over a river, chasm, road, or the like. 2. a connecting, transitional, or intermediate route or phase between two adjacent elements, activities, conditions.
Or is it about something else. Examples: It tears people apart. Maybe some are striking a match, others with a wildfire, while others are completely disconnected. Rebuilding bridges can take years, yet burning one could just take a day.

I’m still trying to find out why people like images of bridges? You buy some of my bridge prints here on fine art America.

South Street Bridge


The original South Street Bridge was a crumbling bridge dating back to 1920 that from 2003 to 2006 until its closure in 2009, pieces of concrete would fall into the Schuylkill River and onto the Schuylkill Expressway. The original bridge was completely torn down and replaced by November 6, 2010

The South Street Bridge is notable landmark in Philadelphia as drivers along the Schuylkill Expressway can see images on its “glowing mesh”. Bruce Chamberlain said that the mesh “… gave the bridge a soft glow at night, while maintaining the openness desired by the design team and community.” [3] Stimulus funding is also going to attach a “boardwalk” to this bridge from Locust Street.

Old Coal Pier 18


Part of the Reading Railroad’s Port Richmond complex, this was one of the primary transfer points for anthracite coal between Pennsylvania’s coal fields and the international market. The pier had two tracks and was once equipped with a large McMyler side car dumper, which would lift coal cars from the rails and dump their contents into waiting barges anchored along the side of the pier.

It is located in Wharton State Forest in the south central Pine Barrens, and a part of the Pine lands National Reserve. It is listed on the New Jersey and National Registry.

A Philadelphia businessman called Joseph Wharton purchased Batsto in 1876, as well as property in the surrounding area. He upgraded his mansion as well as other village buildings. From his death in 1909 until 1954 the properties were managed by a trust in Philadelphia. Then the state of New Jersey purchased the properties, allowing any remaining residents to stay in the village’s houses as long as they wanted. The last house was vacated in 1989.

“look at its shape, with vibrant yellows and oranges, a sunflower can brighten your day…it’s as if it is smiling like a happy face painted on the sun

Because of the myth of Clytie and Apollo, the aesthetic sunflower most commonly means adoration and loyalty. … To Native American groups, sunflowers represented harvest, bounty, and provision because they provided seeds, pigment, and more.
Helianthus annuus, the common sunflower, is a large annual of the genus Helianthus grown as a crop for its edible oil and edible fruits. This sunflower species is also used as wild bird food, as livestock forage, in some industrial applications, and as an ornamental in domestic gardens.

Ultimately meant to house 5000, it currently houses far fewer but nevertheless still exists as a proposition for a new hyper-dense, ecologically sensitive mode of human settlement.
