About The Artwork

I was fortunate to get this shot. It's a shot that I had been waiting for for a long time. Never got one quite as good as the others I had seen. This one, I think was well worth the wait. The genleman was with a friend who was being interviewed and I waited for a good opportunity to sneak a couple of quick shots. I shot this with a Nikon D2xs, I think with a 300 mm Nikon lens. We were somewhere out in Lincoln County WVz. Chuck Yeager's old stomping grounds. Remember he was the test pilot, first man to break the sound barrier. .This man bears a striking resemblance to Keith Richards. Though his appearance is a state of unkept disrepair, you notice that he has recently shaved. I shot this one and another one, originally in color, and I hope to locate those files at some point. Scenes and people of Appalachia seem to have a resonance with people across the country, expecially in black and white. My friend Builder Levy is one of those photographers that has produced some wonderful Appalachia photographs.

https://youtu.be/IyvibLfHnS4 Somewhere between Impressionistic and Surrealism, Composition is important, Detail is important, Contrast is important, Lighting is important. Beauty is important. Freezing the subject is not important. tripod free. holding the camera is important as facilitator. It's been a revelation to me what the camera is capable of. And what the human eyes does not see. So this is visibility. Expanded. (I will say, the shutter speed is slow and the aperture setting is appropriately 22 ish or smaller). Monet and the Impressionists and the Decisive Moment photographs, who tried to capture what they saw when they saw it. I have brought us much closer to this goal. These photographs are made in the field, at the moment I press the shutter button of my camera. They require little more than your basic darkroom work. I started taking pictures when I was 12. Even then I was ahead of my time, taking pictures of my Weimeraner dressed up in sweat pants, seated upon my go-cart, and on the roof my parents house. (The dog was the trusting sort). I also came up with the Ken Burns Effect before Ken Burns, with a video I made and still have. I was a photojournalist in WV for 20 years. In 2007 I began taking these Unique Fine Art Photographs, One day they will rock the art world. Get in now on the ground floor, if you're an investor, or if you just appreciate beautiful, unique fine art photography, or nature, revealed as the human eye has never seen it before, for the very first time in these photographs. If you like, buy one please. Needing that validation. T. Paige
