Colorado Cloudscapes, #1, Louisville, Colorado, 2018
Out and about this morning on the Davidson Mesa Open Space in Louisville, Colorado in hopes of photographing a near full Moon setting behind the Flatirons at sunrise.
In the end, it was more about the clouds–with apologies to Alfred Stieglitz and his “equivalents“…photographs that might represent an inner state, emotions, or ideas.
An Alleged Stieglitz Conversation:
Man (looking at a Stieglitz Equivalent): Is this a photograph of water?
Stieglitz: What difference does it make of what it is a photograph?
Man: But is it a photograph of water?
Stieglitz: I tell you it does not matter.
Man: Well, then, is it a picture of the sky?
Stieglitz: It happens to be a picture of the sky. But I cannot understand why that is of any importance.
