Homage Gerhard Richter I somehow don’t think this photo, depicting the ubiquity of road construction, will have quite the same impact on viewers as Richter’s October 18, 1977… For one thing, October 18, 1977 depicts a national event of some import: the suicide of 3 imprisoned members of the Baader-Meinhofm Gang, and other events of the Deutscher …

365.197 Ohne Titel
And another happy accident finds the scene being sucked up by the Shop Vac of the Gods or something… This really needs a better title… if something pops into your head, please to pass it on! Tonight: I attach .9 and .6 nd filters to the front of the 24mm f/2.8 ai… Tomorrow, I shoot …
365.196 coming to
I normally don’t do artistic crops like this, but I started playing with this shot, and realized that it is pretty much what the Agents would see as they emerge into the bodies of the policemen at the beginning of that car chase scene in The Matrix Reloaded, and that this therefore really needed to be …
