So has Honduras. It takes effort (there’s that word again) and dedication to really find what you’re looking for,

But Appalachia has been photographed many, many times.  I did a workshop with a young girl who was taking excellent photographs in Appalachia but they were mostly of young people in poverty and she was finding the same thing that I found.  They had plenty of money for cigarettes and alcohol and electronic devices and junk food but no work ethic at all.  They grew up on welfare, had babies and dropped out of school as soon as they could and continued on welfare.  

I lived in rural Kentucky for several years.

Try anywhere rural in Appalachia. I shot there in the 1970’s and a few years ago drove around some of my old stomping grounds to find that the only substantive changes were the vehicles. Nobody drove a ’53 Chevy truck any more and hardly anybody carried pistols on the+ir front seats either. If you need a rural location in Appalachia, call up the Editor or Appalachian Regional Commission and speak to Public Relations. They are all at 1660 Conn Ave NW, DC where they have been since I worked for them. Everybody I knew is either retired or in the ground.

In fact, check out Harlan KY and see if that does anything for you. The town may still belong to a coal mining company.

I do believe if you get out of the city and into more rural areas like central Missouri or even the mountains of Colorado you will get a different result.  Or even go to one of the reservations in the mountains of Colorado.

This shot would have been much more powerful if the location was Arkansas or Oklahoma or other US state.

tina there is probably not much you could have done its a great shot.   but that decapitated pig (having lived and worked in similar place) makes me think that pig is decapitated and dead.   Also it looks like you have done some dodging on the faces maybe?   The blacks look lifted a touch and seem odd.  Is that a lens flare or retouched faces?

NOTICE: There is a new series exhibition in Gallery-10. Photographs by Randy Little  on Children of Beijing. See it at http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-10/index.html

Last week the counter read 10340 and when this collection was installed the counter read 10440

Enqueued for future installation: none - contributions welcome!

To participate in this activity find instructions at: http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-sub.html

Send your contributions early and anything you can do to prepare the photographs so they do not require additional adjustment would be much appreciated. Especially keeping them near 1000 pix in longest dimension and 200Kb in maximum size. Large images that run off the edges of average monitors are a pain. Larger is not always better!

Please take an extra minute to abide by this request but if you have doubts about how to prepare images just send them anyway and the capable gallery staff will adjust them for exhibition.

Did you know you could have a series exhibition? Learn all about it on the instructions page mentioned above.
