CHAIRS
Some people seek a 'walk around' lens so if there is such a thing maybe
some of us can consider ourselves walk around photographers. I for one
would like to claim that i am a walk around
photographer. 95 percent of my pictures are taken while walking
around seeking something i see that grabs me like a kidnapper. of
course i enjoy the sense of subjects grabbing my
attention and would prefer it over a kidnapper napping me but you
get it. One thing i am strangely attracted to among others is chairs.
To see chairs left out abandoned, no longer
useful for its purpose in a good sit down chair interests me because
quite simply i feel bad for such an object. Like a puppy with no home
these subjects give me a feeling of guilt that it
was once owned and appreciated and now is only a matter of time
before it is completely trashed, burned or rotted. I like to find
interesting chairs with good character and a nice
environment to accompany it. Even though these chairs have no mind
of their own i like to think that photographing them makes them feel
less lonely and is a final salute before they are gone for
good. One mans trashy ass chair is another mans picture.
