The PNE
Many years ago, before I went digital, my son Mike played soccer and I usually took him to his games. One year, in early spring, he played a game on historic Empire field. This was after the football stadium had been taken down. Empire field is located beside the PNE grounds where Vancouver's annual late summer carnival takes place. While I was waiting for the game to start I took my camera up to the PNE grounds and, to my happy surprise, there was an open gate. I wandered around the abandoned carnival grounds and finished the roll of black and white that was in the camera. It was kind of magical. I had no idea then what I would do with them, if anything, in the future. I have just finished scanning the negatives and here are a few. I tinted some but left B&W versions of them as well.
This site is meant to work with the little-eye-studio web site (see above link). I hope to show photographs that I have recently taken or added to the web site. I will also introduce artists, or others, who have influenced me and my work. I might write about photography or whatever strikes my fancy. Please feel free to leave comments. Thanks.
Jim
