Moved

I have recently moved from the west coast -the SF bay area- to the east coast, the Appalachian mountain area, Asheville, NC to be more accurate. As of this writing i have been here for a bit over 7 weeks and haven't really been doing much photography. This house, the first time i (actually we as it is my wife and i who moved and are living here) i've lived in a house not an apartment in decades. The consequence of which is that there is space for a total photographic set-up: shooting, process via a computer and matting and framing. The whole nine yards. Now there is no excuse for not doing whatever photographic work i want.

Still, i've not settled in and am usually feeling a bit lost although i understand that will change as i get to know the surrounding area better and learn where is available.

This area, our back porch faces east and the rising sun creates amazing and beautiful sun rises almost daily. Even when it is overcast and it often is as this is the winter season, the sun beams flit thru the space tween the horizon far out east and the local cloud coverage long enough to create some breath taking mornings.

Such as:

Early morning sun


I want to use this new time, new place to work on a different kind of photographic presentations ... more abstract, more questioning: is this really a photograph?



As these are photographs in process i wonder about not showing them until they are finished but my current thinking is that maybe seeing the 'in-process' work will offer a larger range of possibilities as i see pieces of the work.
