American Composition #1

Day two of my week-long series on American colors in celebration of the 4th of July.

I Found this American scene while photographing near the railroad tracks and Arkansas River in
Tulsa back in 2006. I think it was part of a run down garage next to a run down house. But that
really didn’t matter. What mattered was the undesigned, unanticipated beauty of the American
colors in such an unlikely spot.

Color Composition #3

A continuation of the Color Composition series I started last week. The photos were
all taken on a very bright and sunny morning at the farmer’s market as part of a
photography group I was leading that day where we focused on color and composition as
the defining factor in a photograph.

I just had to catch up with this woman and ask her to if I could take her photo. She
was standing right next to this table and the red/red/red was just too luscious to
resist!
