Things that go bump in the night

Now this is camping...

Good ol' Joel

I've never been to Cape Cod, but all the images taken there are so very familiar somehow. Maybe that's why I see things in these photographs that some might not...

Joel Meyerowitz's photos are a real paradox to me sometimes. This might confuse people, but I'm simply saying that there are so many different readings in his images. Lonely yet uplifting, promising and doubtful, sombre but comforting.

Well, I love 'em...

(Ascending order: 'Dune grass house,' 'Doorway to the sea,'Provincetown' and all from Cape Light by Joel Meyerowitz)

Down the rabbit hole

I admit this shot was quite sloppily taken, but I like the muddy feel of it. And I definitely didn't notice the halo when I took this. A rather spooky shot...

Back to fall

With the onset of fall, you can almost feel nature bracing itself for winter. The light is fantastic, the sun creates so much contrast against the darkening skies! This is definitey one of my favourite times of the year... 

'No hay poets'

What rebellious sheep... Maybe they'll bleat some Keats?

Oui?

The urban deer, right at home in the heart of Paris...

Welcome home

After feeling rather uninspired recently, I hit the books. I flipped through one of my favourite photo books (Cape Light) by one of my favourite photographers (Joel Meyerowitz) and happily got schooled in composition and recognizing where light falls best. I can't figure out if this education feels like a digression after trying to become more commercial or a happy home coming. Taking this picture was just slipping on those comfy, beat-up sneakers...
