Anyone else believe that we're only a month into the semester?
Well, here's a few selections from the transit pictures I'm taking. These are from four or so sessions I believe (being a ride to and from school, typically). There's a few other angles I'd like to experiment with, I think.
Roughly, the intent here is to underscore the act of seeing the everyday environment around us when usually it only glances off our awareness. Drivers, particularly in areas like ours, spend a good deal of time in their car and pass so much that would otherwise be worthwhile to observe more closely. Parts of the car interior take up the frame, in part to fully situate the photograph as occurring during transit and, further, to serve the idea of curious surroundings and subjects withheld from one's perspective.
I really like this idea - I have particularly favorite views I enjoy on my commute to school and around my area, but am also often caught unaware at the interesting things I see at random stops and wish I had a camera to capture them! I like your framing idea, and think it is especially effective in images 1, 4, and 5. I look forward to seeing more of this. It’s a great pairing with the work you did last semester.
