Elbe

..March 2012.. ..Dresden..

I walked to Pillnitz…..it`s always been one of the most beautiful walks I`ve ever taken. I can`t find the name of the color that sprints down the Elbe or the hazy dull palette above. The banks are lined with homes capped by ominious minorettes that I only have seen in dreams about another time.

It’s hard to believe this was place I wouldn’t have been able to walk a short time ago.

I can`t find the technicolor image or the precise words to express this feeling of walking along the Elbe. I feel creatively impotent when it comes to photographing my emotions. Which is frustrating because my photography is fueled by photographing emotion in other people.

What is this feeling? It isn`t the type of inspiration that I has moved me in the past. It isn`t inspiration or emotion that moves me 99.9% of the time. This is a walk dreamt in Technicolor with air that has a snap of a reality that I never thought existed.

    Like this shot, feels like a mystery movie. A sense of foreboding behind the fence, ghosts and secrets. Wonderful shot. Damon

    Like the frosted low contrast look to this. Almost has a haunted house feel to it.
