The title is pretty self-descriptive. It was shot with a Pentax LX with a 40-80mm lens. I used TMAX 400 pushed to 1600, and had the developer heated to something like 150 degrees. I wanted the grain to be the size of boulders. My intention here was to give this a massive, brooding quality. For whatever you may squeeze out of this statement: this is actually one of my favorite photographs, and few others seem to care for it. It does show the limits of the optics I could afford when I shot it. I was in college. (Which is also attitude . . . it ain’t the lens, it’s the mind. Right?) So, instead of correcting it, I enhanced it in ‘Shop 15 years later. I layered in a texture underneath and played with the opacity until it got where I wanted it to be. I should add that, after fucking with the perspective forever (non-level photographic plane and cheap optics being the bane of rectilinear work) I decided to emphasize the distortions rather than remove them; if rape is inevitable, might as well make the best of it? I also have a habit of coming back and re-working things pretty much forever. We all have bad habits. I may change that little area in the upper left hand quadrant. It seems a non-productive distraction; possibly the only area that makes this less than what I desire in a work I’ve done. But I’m busy this weekend . . . and reluctant to change the finest mistake I think I’ve ever pulled out of the development bath. Developer. How quaint. New note: Yeah, I’m going to crop a little off the left, the run it through onOne’s Genuine Fractals. Then I can make it huge. I still think this is the best thing I’ve really ever pulled off.

This was an impulse shot, taken on the way home from Cherry Beach underneath the Gardiner Expressway, I thought the concrete looked cool. Taken on auto with my little Sony then turned to B&W with a burn added.

This is the new bridge at the bottom of the expressway at Port Adelaide. It was officially opened today August 1, 2008. The second bridge span that is visible behind the traffic span is the railway bridge.

My entire world is supported by small ball bearings no larger than a ladybird sitting quietly on a tulip. They spin, transferring effort into forward motion. Photo taken in Gansu Province, China, during a 2.5 year long, world record breaking around the world journey by bicycle and skateboard. Photo taken during the skateboard leg of journey.

The Cahill Expressway in an high dynamic range image of 3 merged (using Photomatix) images with an AEB of 3. The reason I was able to get the ‘quiet’ moment was due to the Pope’s visit in 2008 when the express way was closed.
