I’m going through my photos this afternoon, and I found this one that I like. It’s of Dillon Supply, downtown Raleigh. It’s shot on 120 fujichrome film with a Holga. The Holga is a Chinese plastic camera with a plastic lens – you never quite know where the film is, so sometimes the shots bleed into each other, and you never quite know what the lens is going to do when the sun comes through it. I like the way the east and west views bleed into each other, I like the urbanity of course, I like the textures and materials. I like the new-city icons in the background of the old. I’ve shot these buildings each many times, but they seem to make more sense as a contextual triptych here than they do individually. That’s significant, I think.
