PERHAPS I AM GOING TOO FAR WITH THIS

Still Finding My Way With the Ghost Train, 1995/2013

One of the really fun things about the work that I do is that I am seeing my old photographs in a new light. Perhaps I am actually seeing them in ways that I could not understand back when I took them. I think I am taking some of my past vision and applying my compiled knowledge of an additional twenty years of maturity.

What ever it is, I am having a great time not only making these modifications, but in linking my past with my present. In some ways I am going back in time to when I took this image, and I am passing some knowledge to myself in a weird sort of time warp. If nothing else, I am not stuck in a single process or work flow.

  1. My photo teacher, Tom Knight always said to take it too far and then go back. Otherwise you are always playing it too safe.
