Digital BW, The Print

Mark-
 
I took a look at your 1997 'Body Image Show: What you Eat', and I cannot
help giggling at some of the entries. But the one that stands out has to
be Jim Herrington's 'broccoli casserole at rotiers'. My whole family
went to Vandy, and I am very familiar with Nashvegas, and I have no clue
how somebody could choose rotier's for something other than their
burgers. In fact, I think they put some kind of drug in their beef
patties; they are soooo good.

	A photographer is always evolving and learning new methods, 
	shortcuts, and techniques. He's always perfecting his craft.
It's a 
	natural evolution.
	
	Let's also hope that he's also continuing to shoot photographs. 
	New photographs. Any new techniques that you naturally learn 
	along the way would be applied to these new photographs that 
	you're making.
	
	Who wants to sit around and obsess over some photograph that 
	you made five years ago? You did your best at that time; that
was 
	then, this is now. The past is the past.
	
	I put up some images on my site this weekend that I shot fifteen

	years ago. My connection to them is moderate to average; I 
	simply copied the fiber print with a digital camera to get them 
	onto the web. I didn't obsess over them. Almost, in some weird 
	way, when I impulsively went to burn down a corner in one of 
	them, I stopped because I felt like I was violating the image. I

	printed like I printed in 1985; I want to respect that. I print
like I 
	print in 2002; obviously with a very different take on life. I
think 
	each one deserves respect.
	
	Just my opinion. But I'm not looking backwards.
