An old house to crawl into
These pictures were taken all over the place – somehow they worked together.
For some reason I don’t seem to do scenics anymore – I find myself looking at the elements that make a scene as opposed to the full setting. I do the same things with people in a way – I prefer to shoot close ups. Maybe it’s less cluttered, or maybe it’s because it’s so common to overlook the details.
That’s why I grew so excited with that discovery in Little Harbor. I didn’t get a good shot of the entire house but I carefully took pictures of it’s contents – oops.
We were actually turned on to Little Harbour by a friend who shot it years ago – way back in the film days. Bev said that it was good as a drive-by for a few scenics – she would never have thought that I’d find an old house to crawl into.
Hum, I’m feeling philosophical about this “elements” thought. It’s like looking at someone / something long enough to see what actually makes them who / what they are. If you look only at the polished package you never get to really appreciate the parts.
