A Second Look

On June 8, 2013 By Fred KingIn Architecture, B&W, Brooklyn, Nikon D7000, portrait, Thoughts, UncategorizedLeave a comment

I’m pretty sure I have posted this photo in the near past. I also included an 8X10 print of it in my current display, that is about to end this Friday. What I have been curious about is the pair of lower legs in the photo, behind the old phone booth. I am not sure if everyone saw and got what I was trying to do with this image: Walking in front of the Coney Island Museum of “Freaks”, etc. is this torso-less being. To me, it was a curious juxtaposition, caught at just the right millisecond. A second later or earlier and the whole body is seen and the statement is lost. No matter how long and hard one looks at this image we will never know the ‘owner’ of the torso that must be attached to the legs we see.

I’ve been searching for the ‘unknown’ for quite some time. I found it last Fall on a bench in Brooklyn. Precisely, a bench on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade.

Evergreen State Fair

On September 1, 2012 By Fred KingIn Art, B&W, Nikon D7000, Thoughts1 Comment

I entered three photographs in three different categories at the Evergreen State Fair. Today we went up to see how the three pieces faired. All three took second place in their respective categories. Close, but not quite the best. I thought all three were worthy or in the running. This was my first year at this judging event. I’m sorry the two images here are full of glare, etc. No matter where I stood to take a photo I could not avoid that nasty glare. Anyway, when I get the judging sheet I should have a better understanding of what they were looking for, or???????????

What would……

What would a nature trail be without high tension power lines? The Interurban Trail probably started out as a maintenance road for the power company and morphed, over time, into something the public could use.

Photo of a photo. A poster-sized photo I have had for 25 years on my wall. Stating the obvious, this image if from the movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s, starring Audrey Hepburn.
