Mysteriously Mundane, I really like this kind of photography. Similar to Carl Weese, at least to me.

Square America Snapshots & Vernacular Photography
Think of your photographs in 20 years, or 40 years. Time changes how a photograph is viewed. I wonder if I would have loved these photographs without the passage of time? Many of them I would.

The Online Photographer: Digital and its Discontents

The Online Photographer: Digital and its Discontents

I have assumed that there was not a fundamental difference between film and digital. For me, in my photography, there isn't. but I agree with the distinctions and ideas in this article. The joy and challenge of looking at photographs is that it is a remnant of a real interaction at a specific moment in time, the more this interaction or connection is weakened the less interesting, and the less valuable, the photograph becomes. For me photography is sharing a way of seeing.

This web site is an inspiration, photography as documentation and archiving I do not like the organization, I want to scroll through and see a sequence of photographs, but the photographs that I see are thoughtful and worth exploring.

I find this site worth exploring, an example of photography as a life's work and also as a method of presentation. I would love to have my photography archived and presented with the thought and care that has been put into this archive.

Inspiration and Art, really. When I take photographs many times I am trying to document something that will have value in the future. I actually think that what is mundane today will be fascinating tomorrow.

Simple clear respectful photography of a surreal institution. Photography has the power to reveal and hopefully change what it reveals.

The Photoshop Medicine Show (PDF)

CA56-DeWolfeMedicineShow.pdf (application/pdf Object)
I agree with this article, there is a difference between a photograph and pigment, Photoshop techniques can obscure and divert from the original photographic intention. Clear photographic intention, enhanced through Photoshop is Photography. A clear Photoshop intention enhanced through photography might be art, but might not be Photography.
