ROLL 001 — FIRST CAMERA

New York / Arizona.

The first roll I shot after getting the camera.

I didn’t know what I was doing yet.
    I was already looking for what stayed behind.

Times Square billboards from Roll 001 Dark Times Square from Roll 001

I started with too much light.

Gas station at dusk from Roll 001 Dark mountain sunset from Roll 001 Bright mountain sunset from Roll 001 Quiet desert silhouette from Roll 001

The noise got farther away.

Bedroom lamp from Roll 001 Broken white building and palm from Roll 001 Citrus tree from Roll 001 Fallen lemon from Roll 001

Things stayed where they fell.

Cactus landscape from Roll 001 Wide desert landscape from Roll 001 Cave opening and landscape from Roll 001 Cave frame and valley from Roll 001 People and dog in cave from Roll 001 Cave wall detail from Roll 001 Vertical desert valley from Roll 001 Rotated desert mistake from Roll 001 Accidental abstract blur from Roll 001

I didn’t know what mattered yet.
