Selected Infrared Prints, and A Year Of Milling Around

Flying Monkey Arts Center, Huntsville, Alabama December 2007

First Idea: Infrared images selected for their very high contrast. Subjects (except one) are scenes of the Huntsville area.

Pushing Daisies, Swamp Tupelos, Drive-by Photography099

Divide-By-Zero Sky, Covered Bridge, Weeping Willow

Second Idea: I've also selected photographic evidence of my year of hanging around the amazing Lowe Mill/Flying Monkey Arts community. They basically let me have the run of the place, and I got to watch artists in the act of creating as well as their creations. Yes, it is kinda like seeing sausage being made, but slightly easier to clean up.

North panel: Posey Peep Show, The Pine Hill Haints, The Wiyos. South panel: Grace on the Inside, No Business Like Zombie-isness, The Group Hug.

Being a unrepentant nerd, I also set up an infrared video camera and display for people to experiment with. The Monkeyfolk wondered how I could sneak around to get those angles when they performed. (Hint: I am Ninja Photographer(TM). They should just accept that by now.) The general public were more interested in the IR shots. As usual, there was no neutral reaction to them, which is just how I like it. Damb fine show. Learned a lot. More on that later.

Thanks to the Flying Monkey Arts Center for the opportunity to turn these hopeful monsters loose upon an unsuspecting public.
