If you're going to put up textures like this, you really need to be shooting at highest resolution available to the hardware you're willing to schlep. Then start communing with Photoshop or just f___g send it to me. Because there is a s___tload of stuff going on here and your eye is right on. But then again my dearest Sonia has mixed me a delightful dark and stormy on an empty tummy. So YOU be the judge. See attached. Yes, there is a title for you: "SEE ATTACHED"
So here' the deal, Bryan - first, I will absolutely give you Carte Blanche to fiddle with ANY of these photos as you see fit. So there's that. Second, how I am attempting to approach art with the writing and the drawing and the photos - well, I'm just NOT going to be buying a camera and schlepping it around and getting the best resolution. I'm just not. Money-wise, time-wise, other reasons. I understand that the shots I get with my cell phone and IPAD are not going to be the best they can be; but some come off, to my mind, FANTASTIC (that Sicko graffiti, for example). This shot was taken in a men's room at floor level in a somewhat busy bar. No way am I on my hands and knees with a camera set-up, just not me. So think of this as my own little Dogme set-up, maybe. Natural light with no enhancement, and hope for something good. Because then, when I'm done with the shot, and I have the one want, and I post it? I'M DONE. And I have way too much accumulating and way too much to do to go back, or spend too long on any one thing...
