Looking at one photograph at a time
Untitled (Veggia-selfie) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale With the recent and seemingly odd tangent that I am on photographing metamorphic plants, I decided to take a break and return to working on another of my projects for the morning. In the midst of this I noticed my shadow on these bushes. The resulting photograph has a... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #39, Aging Memory pods) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale This Memory pod project continues to evolve, but since my subject is evolving towards the end of it's bloom and seed cycle as a subject it is about at it's end for this year. I really can't recall if this plant blooms once per... Continue Reading →
Untitled series (Warp Speed #01 - #07) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale This is a mini-project that explores the time-space continuum and the effects of traveling at sub-Warp Speed. With the advent of another Star Wars movie in the making and been awhile since the last release, most are not familiar with the experience of approaching... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #27, A Missing Memory pod) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale A version of this photograph was one of my early Memory pods #05 that I had heavily manipulated, see below. In conjunction with version #01, this photograph was drawing me deeper into this investigation of memory and its preservation. In both versions of... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #25) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale. After developing over twenty of the memory pod images using the Snapseed app on my Samsung camera-phone, I am going back and looking at these same images again. I might say that these are "straight" images that do not appear to be tweaked. The image above is... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods#24) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale Seeing these pods on the ground in various states of decay made me think of the many beautiful memories that I have experienced and that have fallen on the way side, many to be forgotten. Regards
Untitled (Anonymous #01) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale Another project that has been lurking in the background is the concept of personal privacy and concerns with identity theft. I have worked with a couple of different ideas on how to explore this concept. Then I realized that the most elegant might very well be the most... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #21, May 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale This morning I was out scouting some more memory pods that I had seen around the area over the past couple of days. It seems that this idea is not going easily away. Stylistically, I have been denaturing the color in my images, but in... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #16, May 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale I was captivated by the composition and appearance of two rose pods after the bloom. What I had not been attempting before this was the documentation and development of the same subject over time. Hopefully apparent the image #16 above was the earlier of the... Continue Reading →
Untitled (Memory pods #07, May 2014) copyright 2014 Douglas Stockdale While developing this photograph for my Memory pods series, I kept finding myself introducing a warm hue. Up to this point I have been exploring variations of a neutral or tan background color. Color can convey a whole litany of narratives; such that a warm red... Continue Reading →
