New school year--PoMoViDo lives on!

Although the Visual Documentary class won't resume until the winter trimester, I would love to see new images--even just one or two--from all of the original members. I'll also be encouraging current students to post relevant photographs here. Lamb is working incredibly hard to finish up her "Yard Sale" project, which has wonderful audio and pictures--since she leaves for W&L on Saturday, there should be a final product (or semi-final?) to post by the weekend. Meantime, please put up pictures from your current life, whether you're starting college or returning to high school here or elsewhere. Obviously your high-school photo class won't be the first thing on your mind as you embark on your new year, but we can keep our conversation going a little bit.

I wish the photo posted here showed everyone from the class (and yes, there are a few ringers--like Barack), but it's better than nothin'. Miss you all!

More of GeGe

My neighbor, Lee, had a neighborly get-together, so I shot some of GeGe seeing some people she hadn't seen in a long time.

This is too small.
The images are too small.
The sound is a dream though.
This is my good friend Madeline.

GeGe

This is the beginning of my main project. I'm doing a character type study on my grandmother GeGe. Technically she isn't my grandmother, but she might as well be. Some of the pictures are of her shopping at Belk. And the others I took at her home. I personally like the mirror one the best.

Saturday at the Main Street Market downtown. I tried some more experimental editing on some. Personal favorite is the albino pigeon, which wasn't actually at the market but the parking garage next door.
