Winter of My Discontent.
It was a dark time when I made the series, Winter Of My Discontent. It was November of last year and I spent the month going out early AM with my 6/12 panoramic camera. loading one roll of black and white film I would make 6 images before first light. These images have a very different feel to all of my other work and reflect a period in life that was filled with much loss. The immense cold and darkness only added to the feeling of isolation and once again photography became a coping mechanism.
I have often said that, ‘no one goes out on a warm sunny day and comes back with a meaningful photograph.’ I think this series backs up that statement nicely.
