Coyboy with Rope
Cowboy with Rope In your travels you take pics of where you are, the people you are with, and you end up with a lot of wasted memory in your digital video camera (Many people video the sidewalks by mistake). I go back to the days of roll your own film. In this new world of digital cameras, you don't care how many shots you take, later you think you will delete the ones that are out of focus, sun glared, and of sidewalks.
You never do delete those shots and you never grow in your photography. The digital camera has made people careless. Still to this day I want every shot to count even though I use a digital video camera to produce my photoart. When I first traveled to Europe to photograph the Impressionist Paintings in the Louvre Museum, I carried a motion picture camera. The second time back to Europe, I carried 8mm Video Camera. This last time I was in Europe I used my JVC mini dv camera. What technology has done for us. No mater what the camera, it was always important to get the shot. The shot that is different than a pic. The shot makes you stop and think. But when your on a train, you see the shot, how do you get it? With video, is how I get the shot I want. No, I do not shoot a lot of video to get the shot. As you develop your photographic eye, that minds eye, you anticipate the shot. You even know that shot is coming before you get to the shot. How does one develop the photographic eye? Make every shot count. When you can't get the light or exact shot, well, that's what Photoshop is for. With the digital video, I know I aam not going to get everything I want or don't want in the shot. In my minds eye I know what I want. I create the image with photographic skills, artist skills and digital skills. That's why I call my art Photoart. Like the Impressionist, the Photoart stands outside the accepted world of art. But that is changing. Recently, I read that Wyland the whale and dolphin art painter is photographing underwater shots and painting art onto the photograph. We have three Wyland's in our collection, but I have not seen the results of his new adventure. If he is successful, then photoart will be the craze. I like photographing statues. I photographed the Michelangelo's bronze "David" at Ringling Brother's Museum in Sarasota, Florida and Michelangelo's marble "David" in Florence, Italy. Each photographed differently. Each has its own texture and light. The bronze "David" was caste from the original Florence "David;" but it is the atmosphere that make the photos different. The image shown below is a statue that stands 33 feet high. It is so big that I could not back away far enough to get a good full image. For me, the full statue was not the shot but the up close of the bronze "Cowboy with Rope" was. This is the photoart piece in The MUSEUM. The art giclee is 52" x 70" and sells for $2339.00. Any takers? I do have my own art piece of "Cowboy with Rope" hanging on our wall but is only 11" x 14" and it is not for sale. It is the original art piece. I do not sell originals only giclees. Enjoy.
