This image, titled "Along Commons Road", is part of my series of images shot in Dogtown, Gloucester, MA with a Holga camera. You can see the ever-changing series here on my website.
A perfect moment ... composition, light, shadows, and edge blur ... seen with a wonderful sensitivity.
At the hardware store today, I saw someone with a T-shirt that said "Dogtown", and all I could think of was your photos. I half-wished I'd had the nerve to ask him if I could photograph it :-)
Thanks Jacki. I can only speculate but the "Dogtown" t-shirt you saw may have been the Santa Monica skateboarding ones, or the animal rescue group. I don't think I have ever seen a Dogtown shirt for sale, even in the touristy shops of Gloucester or Rockport. Seems like most locals just ignore the place.
I shoot a lot of the same subject with different cameras.This blog has pretty much become a place to post these alternative versions of images that I have already posted on Flickr. Not that they're any better or worse than the Flickr images...they're just different.

Thanks.
