When I was a little boy, Carnival rides used to frighten me. When my Grandfather would take me to the State Fair, the rides were so threatening and intimidating. I was in awe. As far as the sideshows and oddities, forget about it. Who knew what was behind the canvas? Something otherworldly, surely. As a very young man I saw the movie, Nightmare Alley, staring Tyrone Power, which made a lasting impression on me. It was about a man who works in a Carnival that he eventually becomes a carny Geek. The photos presented here have an ethereal quality about them, because of the type of film I used, plus they were purposely photographed on days that were stormy and threatening. I did not include people in the shots for the most part as to make the images seem forlorn and abandoned. The images are to be viewed from a small child's point of view, where the adults are giants and the world is full of wonder and mystery.

I go by Kristoffersen, my surname. However, I'm not sure how to get that sorted out on this site... A bio from my web site: "As an accomplished fine art photographer, Kris Kristoffersen is unparalleled in echoing the culture of the authentic American landscape. His portfolio suggests an eye for intensity and a penchant for revealing the haunting splendor within his chosen images. Ranging from rustic cowboys to side-show carnivals to Native Americans, his pictures help us to reflect on those who lived in a bygone era. No matter what he selects as his focus, it is truly mesmerizing to see the world through Kristoffersen's lens. He has been published nationally and internationally in such works as Der Stern, Marie Clare, Landmark calendars, and books from St. Martins Press and KMW publishing. His works have been placed in MOMA, Tennessee State museum, The Frist museum, The Booth museum, Gene Autry museum, The Heard museum. He has also been collected by many corporations such as The Sheraton hotel, Jose Cuervo, Polygram, Taco Bell the TV series Nashville, and many more. He has also been collected in many private collections such as Vanna White,Johnny Depp, Lady Anetbellum, Steve Cropper, and Kevin Dobson from Knots Landing.
