Lake Union, Seattle, Washington (mid-2002)
(not sure of the camera or lens used here, probably shot on some crappy supermarket Fuji Superia 200) |
In a (probably fruitless) effort to actually get my photographs organized, I've been going back through my image archives and doing some long-overdue editing. (Read, killing of my babies, my babies I tell ya!!) Actually exercising the delete key has been depressingly easy. Why did I keep taking pictures when I clearly sucked so badly at being a photographer? Pure stubborn contrariness would appear to be the only credible answer.
Anyway, as I have been sorting through there have been a few images that still make me smile. Not always the best technical images, either. Case and point is the photo above - the grain is ugly, the composition questionable and the lens flare unintentional. Still, the light and the mood of the image for me really strongly evokes Seattle and makes me homesick and nostalgic.
Might be more of these oldies to come.
