Skyward - John M. Hall - I (graphic) |
It was a great morning for shooting IR with bright sun, though I would have preferred some cloud in an otherwise clear sky. I spent a few hours wandering around the town, capturing images of the prominent storefronts, buildings and local scenes.
Always looking to push my photographic craft further, every outing offers a new lesson or reinforces previous ones. While I made quite a few exposures looking for something different, I fell back to the "skyward" approach as there was simply too much activity at street level distracting from what I had in mind to capture. By pointing the camera "skyward' along the shop fronts, I eliminate the distraction, and capture a unique yet recognizable view if this pretty little town.

Hello Doug,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your photos of the town I was born in. I remember getting lost in this store (as both my brothers and my sister!). The shelve were piled high with linens and all sorts of good stuff, too high for little people to see over or parents to find missing children. Great memories of Hall's!
Paris is a pretty little town. I'm liking my photography outings there because I get to experience more and learn more about it each time I visit. I've never been inside Hall's but you have raised my interest to see what's inside.
DeleteGlad you enjoyed walking down memory lane.
