I have noted elsewhere that I rarely photograph people, although I discovered many images of people in my old negatives. I have decided therefore to overcome this issue by concentrating on one aspect of the human anatomy, the neck. Thusfar I have mostly been extracting necks from existing images and added a few recent images.
For the most part the images are somewhat abstract. I found that adding additional grain created the impression of sand dunes (and also covered up inadequacies in the originals!)
An image from an old photo (I was about 18) of a girl whose name was, I think, Valerie.
This was from another negative taken when I first went to university.
Keith Ellison, also seen full face on another page.
Increasingly abstract.
This also.
At last a recent digital image. Taken at the Walk to Cure Cancer, UMass Hospital 2008.
Another extract from a black and white negative.
Liz Smith. From a color negative.
