I have been intrigued for some time by the concept of photographing things that are close to me, rather than seeking out subject matter in distant and/or unfamiliar places. Last week, Mr. Italo suggested a photographic outing in some colorful, if somewhat seedy, part of town. “Been there, done that”, I thought to myself. “I’m past the rummy phase”, I said to Mr. Italo…I want something different. Funny enough, “something different” seems to be much closer to home. Yesterday’s foray into my own neighborhood left me interested in seeing “more”. Today I focused on my own back yard.

Tres cool, I’d like to see it printed .
If you have a good feeling about a subject, no matter what it is, there’s no harm in going back and back again till you get it right. All kinds of artists experience this, painters, songwriters and yes even photographers. Each time you approach a subject you get something new out of it, that is, if you keep an open mind.
