Some of you might have noticed that this is the first gallery pic I've submitted wasn't about music and musicians. In this photo (one of a series), I'm trying to find a way into another of my obsessions, which I've only recently learned has a name--temporary, obsolete, abandoned, or derelict sites (TOADS). I'm also consciously playing with form/color/texture for the first time since picking up a camera again, three years ago, after a 20 year hiatus. Funny... Most of the stuff I've been looking at recently (Evans, Callahan) is B&W. The exception in Eggleston. --John (middle-aged dog trying to learn new tricks) ===== J.
