Traces
Inside an abandoned shack at Dungeness... little fragments of life soon to be gone for ever...
Whilst we're considering the past I should point you here - an exhibition of colour photographs from 1939-43, a fascinating addition to the famous black and white FSA images. Interesting really how little photographic technology has moved on in the sixty years since - check out that image of the shepherd on horseback and tell me that a digicam shot of the same scene would be that much better! Also, the sorts of high-end pro digi SLRs we have now are considerably bigger, clumsier, more expensive and all round less elegant than the Leicas and Contaxes that I imagine these images were shot with... (plus you could still go out and shoot Kodachrome with one of those today!).
