Wetlands (Series)
DESCRIPTION
This series is called “Wetlands”, it started last summer as a study of expired Polaroid 690 type film and how it works in different light settings. But later continued with a different type of film.
During the past few years, I've come to feel a deep connection to the swamps and lakes and forests that surround them. I love this unique ecosystem. I love the smell and the feeling of the swamp. Each swamp is different and has its own mood, or magic if you will. But any season and any time of the day it's mesmerizing.
