the imperfect gradient
an image capturing the factors that impact on the “quality” of a photographic image.
A window, glass, made opaque due to medium density housing regulations, dirty due to water restrictions, the sky and sunshine still fall on the fence that seperates us from strangers.
The camera captures this everyday scene, the negative has imperfections, dust attaching itself to its surface during drying, or is pressed between it and the glass during scanning.
The scanned image once again “loses” some of what was originally visible, printing the image again brings in imperfections in paper and ink.
Yet even with these limitations and imperfections, the power and essence of the image remains.

Beautiful. Clearly a piece of art that needs to be on a wall. The print comes up even better than this. Cracker.
