Below is a black & white from my 8x10" camera on one of our class field trips. I was drawn by the strong horizontal lines, as well as the "dino" and the "ICE" painted on the boarded up window. (We actually had to remove a realtor sign to make this, but we put it back after we were done... ssshhh... don't tell anyone, especially the realtor!).
Below are the color images I have wanted to make for a long time, after seeing my friend Juan Garcia's beautiful black & whites from this magnificent, but decaying historical mural. I made these on a trip to Superior with my friend, the famous Larry Golsh.
The first is a wide shot but does not include the entire wall. The other half of the wall didn't speak to me as much as this half.
Below is another image, a detail from the mural. The piercing eyes are what made this photograph for me.
Thanks, again, to Rod Klukas' color zone system, and an overcast day!
