Looking through old work, Longing for new work

Working on stuff...searching through old stuff...thinking about the way I shot, and the way I shoot. Thinking about the now and the future. Can I be more vague?

Rebuilding a website, a matching blog, going with a new idea along with the website...it's all second to trying to come up with the content, edit the photos so that at the end of the day, it says something as a whole about how and what I like to shoot. My personal touch. It's tough. One part of me wants to post the work from newspapers and stay in that area, another part wants to post stuff like you see below. It's older work, but sometimes I wonder if it's more true to the future work I'd like to do. It's also in color.

Nice work again John.

I agree. I think some of your posts are a little more whimsical/figurative...rather than straight reportage. Both are worthwhile though, right?

I wanted to ask if you would mind if I posted several of your images to my tumblr page/journal of sorts. www.charlienotebooks.tumblr.com/

Regards

Charlie, thanks for the comment. I agree, both types of posting keep me sane.

Feel free to post whatever you'd like to your page. All I ask, besides credit, is to send me a link so I can check it out. Thanks Charlie.

John
