Warning! Missing months below
This blog began life as an experiment in the spring and summer of 2008 over on Google’s blogger platform. My posting slowed down in August and came to a halt when someone close to me suffered an accident that occupied much of my time over several months.
I am now relaunching Legible Light on the WordPress platform. Posts below this point were ported over from Blogger, which explains the smaller images sizes.
The above self-portrait with religious statuary was made a few weeks before Christmas with a Leica M6, my walk-around camera for days when my old shoulders are particularly weary.
I frame a picture – Market Street
One of the photography blogs was running a self-portrait contest, and I thought – nah. Then I walked by this window on Market Street. This photo really didn’t work in color. There was too much going on and too many different color temperatures: cool shade on the sidewalk, warm reflections from across the street, the fluorescent light from the shop. And the contest? At first I couldn’t remember where to submit the file; then, when I stumbled on the mention of the contest mention again, it was too late.
