Late September, 2024: Memory over Time, Time over Memory

After having finished editing these two photos, I've come to the conclusion that they remind me of the way that a specific memory changes over time, just as the historical record changes as years go by,  and that things which once originally seem ideal and solid  inevitably become abstract and faded. or perhaps more gently and elegantly stated,  MY INEVITABLE REFLECTIONS UPON THE PARADE OF ENTROPY.
Both images were created using a +10 year old Nikon D7100 dslr (35mm 'cropped-format' or 'dx') and a 24mm lens of even earlier vintage. The top image, in black-and-white with its' magnificent  doubravatone finish, is a seemingly 'simple' in-camera, traditional, multiple (triple) exposure. The color image below is an in-camera 'image-overlay' of an in-camera triple exposure and an in-camera double -exposure. The D7100 produces 24 mb RAW files.These reproductions here of course are much smaller jpegs, by necessity.

Kansas Landscapes, September 2024

These multiple-exposure photographs were made with a full-frame 35mm dslr with an older 85mm pc lens. The front element of the lens was swung away from the "film-plane" to the maximum extent allowed. The lens was either wide open or just no smaller than f4.5. A small amount of grain has been digitally added, to increase the perceived sharpness.

The total number of exposures on each one of these images was either five, or six, depending on the photo. They were shot hand-held, using the multiple-exposure mode on my dslr, which allows one to shoot multiple exposures on the same digital file, in the camera, without mandatory post-production.

New Work (April 2024)

 This image began as a triple-exposure, which was then duplicated four times and arranged to complete the final work.

Sleepwalkers (January 2024)

This is an image of somnambulists, sleepwalkers, engaging in an act of wish-fulfillment. This is simultaneously an image of two spiritual adepts engaging in the practice of "hidden knowledge" based rituals.

January 2021

 My thought when I first viewed this in-camera, triple-exposure photograph, as it appeared on the viewing screen on the back of my DSLR, was that extremely weird, uncanny sensation that I was gazing at a figure simultaneously orchid and human.
