Fence and Wall

w:displayhorizontaldrawinggridevery>0 0

I was intrigued by the color of the fence post and the peeling painted bricks. This was the back wall of a law office in Hempstead. I made this image on Sunday when I went to see Kara’s photos in the group show. The photo doesn’t do the area justice. As I walked the block to the gallery, the smell of urine and bleach assaulted my senses. I needed to step over litter and broken bottles. Needless to say Hempstead is a very poor community.

This image was made with the Canon G10 and processed with Photo Digital Professional from Canon and Tone Mapping from Photomatix.

A well needed rest.

I need to apologize to my followers for the long hiatus between posts. As a freelance photographer, I have to take work when it comes and I’ve been super busy.
I have made some personal photos but none of them are worthy of posting. I even went for a walk without a camera to try and clear my head and regain a new focus. It's not my camera as much as it is sitting at the computer and processing images.
Today’s post was made last week at the Smithtown Public Library. I was there for a legislator but came across some chalk drawings along the sidewalk.
This was processed in ACR and Photomatix Tone Mapping programs.

Today’s photo is from Friday’s walk around Riverhead with my friend Perry. This man asked if we could make a photo of him, so I did. I love his tie.
