Thursday Challenge: Noisy -

"Noisy"
photograph by Mick Mather

This brightly painted metal plate marks a stairway inside The Gear Factory in Syracuse, New York and seemed to be just right for the week's Thursday Challenge theme of noisy! Except for minimal cropping, this photo is untouched. Now, it's another gorgeous day and I'm going outside for a walk.

Thursday Challenge: Photography -

"Watching the Detectives"
digital collage by Mick Mather

This week, Thursday Challenge offers us the theme of photography. Not long ago I was working with a terrific group of teenagers on a public art project who managed to design, assemble and site a sculpture in less than 3 weeks time. Part of that effort required documenting as much activity as possible and there were multiple cameras in operation during each creative session. Coleen, a professional photographer with a studio at The Gear Factory where all of this was taking place, appeared one day and offered to shoot a few rolls of film with her big, honkin' rig. Tonight's post is based on two of the photo's I managed to take of her at work after collaging, manipulating and layering as I am wont to do. You can see the sculpture here at No Matter What Shape - The Archive.
