Spring Break and SPE National Conference

For the next 2 weeks I will be in Atlanta for SPE and then Boise for a family trip. Keep an eye out for images from the conference by my fellow classmates as well as myself. After spring break I will resume posting normally again.

Best Regards,
John

Tyler Busby

This week I am featuring work by Tyler Busby. This series is a new look on a building that has seen it's share of Bozeman photographers, but it is done in a way not many have seen. Tyler's series Story Mill Experimental was done in the black and white dark room, exposing the image through a drier sheet.

Story Mill Experimental

If we are to believe that humans are a part of the natural world then we must also believe that everything made by humans is a part of the natural world and, if left unattended long enough, will return, on its own accord, to the realm of the organic. Within my Story Mill project, I chose to focus on the way in which, after its abandonment, the massive mill shed the guise of commerce and industry and began to settle softly back into the natural landscape.

David Arnar

This week I am showing a new series David Arnar put up on his website entitled Fading Memories. It is a project he did for his experimental final at Montana State University. He crafted his own 11x14 pinhole box camera, then mortancaged the negatives. Each image is a camera original so if he were to mess up during the mortancage process he would have to go out and shoot another negative.
