Legible Light

6:58 am – Ferndale

Spent the weekend in “the Victorian Village of Ferndale,” as the town’s publicists invariably refer to it.  In fact the place is not only authentic and impeccably cared for–the entire town on the national register of historic places–but it also feels lived in.

Better homes and autos- Ashbury Heights

Posted in Photos by William Poole on May 10, 2008

My wife and I have lived in a 1,000-square-foot condo in this neighborhood of 4,000+ square-foot homes for almost ten years.  The neighborhood dates from the boom years of the early 20th century, and many of the houses are very beautiful.  I most like to photograph them where they overlap (are in relationship with) one another and the street. I used a tilt-shift lens to bring both the foreground and the houses into focus.
