For the past several years I have placed more emphasis on creative, yet effective composition in my photographs: where the main subject and other objects are placed within the viewfinder. The challenge has been making the subject relatively smaller but arranging its supporting cast in a way that draws attention to it. This “arrangement” involves seeing around the subject in all directions then moving the camera to an ideal position.
Despite these efforts, any photograph will ultimately be made or broken by the directions, intensity, and volume of light.
Oftentimes I have found that color gets in the way of a good photograph just as the facts often get in the way of the truth. Conversely, color is frequently essential to the story and it may be the subject itself.
The Wabbaseka Project evolved as a result of a compulsion to visit the town where my mother was born whenever I went home to Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Whereas I feel like I know the people of Pine Bluff, I feel as though I’m related to the people 15 miles up the road. The photo of Brin and her children could just as easily have been my mother and older siblings.
The town is old and worn but its people are in the trenches, and in general have no desire to leave except for an occasional visit to Walmart in “the Bluff”.
