It Was Another Dark and Stormy Night
A Moment in Photographic History:
USAnian photographer Joe Schwartz was born July 6, 1913. His photographs are stunning works, mostly of ordinary people and interracial harmony.
A Photographic Quote of Note:
I believe all artists, if they are not lying to themselves, must believe that the best part of their work, or even their life, is in front of them. To look only to the past and to say ‘those were the best years, when I was young’ is to say that in the future there is nothing.

Gosh what an atmospheric shot – this is awesome Michael! The dark tones add a wonderful gloom and almost an ominous quality to the photo.
Loved todays quote too – how very wise the words.

Superb, Michael. There’s that element of menace brooding away. The unwelcoming wet pavement and the wind in the tree. LOve it

Very dark and ominous. There’s something that gives me an uneasy feeling about this shot.
