Confluence of Patterns

05.21.2012 by Mark Forman

I'm still enjoying my "slow photo" experiments(becoming a norm actually). I'm hoping I'll adhere to the slower, waiting for the shot to compose itself approach with my newly acquired automatic lens(I've been using primarily manual prime lenses). Here I was taking my time walking around a local food fair and down the green parkway to [...]

Lake Pavilion

Today I watched a great interview with Garry Winogrand, a brilliant and unpretentious photographer that just truly loved taking pictures. The thing I appreciated the most was his joy in taking the pictures and how he didn't seek to over-analyze or intellectualize what he was doing. He also didn't place to much concern on technology [...]

There was a long period of time that I would have identified myself as a street photographer. There is nothing wrong with that classification or tag and do love that theme. The more I've gotten into photography the more I want to shoot anything that presents itself to me as a challenge to capture well [...]

Looking Towards a Brighter Future

03.23.2012 by Mark Forman

Back in the day when I was first listening to Brian Eno having been a listening fan of his (yes I mention this to clarify that I didn't wait backstage for him) since his Roxy Music stint. His first few albums are total masterpieces of synthetic pop music relying on tapes, keyboards , talented musician friends and his great [...]

One of many visual subjects that continue to fascinate me is Tai Chi-a martial art/exercise regime often practiced by middle aged and elderly folks. I guess it's the graceful range of motions or postures that are produced in it's practice. It's flow is very fluid almost like a street ballet if you will. THE KINKS-COME DANCING

For me the concept/image of floating gently encased in blue is very soothing. OTIS REDDING: (Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay

Dreamy Drops…

03.05.2012 by Mark Forman

Went through a dry spell of photos during a wet 4 days. This was during a brief window during that time. I love shooting rainy scenes-just cautious about getting camera equipment wet. This is the old electronics/computer center of Taichung, Taiwan: JiGuang St. Now it's moved further uptown to Nova Mall. Cluster & Eno - Base [...]

About to Morph

02.29.2012 by Mark Forman

It's been raining a lot here the last few days. I won't say it ruined a 4 day weekend but it made it less conducive for being outside photographing and more suitable for staying in doors. While indoors I got out some older photos and added some of my recent post-processing mojo...and voila! Esperanza Spalding | Little Fly

Sublimation

A glimpse up the Damshui River on a short weekend trip to the big city. Stolen moment/frozen pixels...needed coffee to prepare me for many more frames to come that day. Some good ones at that... Traffic & Jerry Garcia Mr Dear Fantasy
