3 Snowprematist Photographs
(walking in the snow put me in a Soviet frame of mind...)







They closed the office at 1:00 p.m. today — a snow day. I went for a walk around Coal Harbour looking for images and found plenty. The only thing that made me stop is it turns out my batteries don't last very long when it is -15°C and I used up both sets pretty quickly. Oh, well. Not all the ones I took are "snowprematist". They rage from these totally abstracted ones, to semi-abstract, to postcard-type landscapes, to photos of people doing fun things in the snow. I'm sure I've got enough to drive Ryan insane like I did with all the ferry photos I took a couple summers ago . Maybe I'll go out and take some more when it is dark.

Top one is at the community centre.

Middle one is along the new street north of the Marine Building.

Bottom one it at the park entrance at the foot of Bute.

Mina and I were coming home and you were taking pictures up Bute.

I was sooo exhauseted from my day though and had to head on home not stopping to say hello...

Thanks. Maybe I'll have to take some more. I find them so absurdly easy to make that there is a part of me that just sees them as a joke. That probably isn't the best attitude. Maybe I'm just good at it and just because it's easy for me doesn't mean just anyone can do it well. Actually I feel the same way about my photography in general, not just the more abstracted stuff.

Just because anyone can pull a trigger doesn't mean everyone can hit the target. I must remind myself of that.
