One Big Self

In 1998 photographer Deborah Luster photographed members of Louisiana's prison population after the unsolved murder of her own mother.. The inmates chose how they would be seen - to present a message to their loved ones.. Luster removed any modern prison features from the background + printed them in black + white on sheets of metal with an amber glaze to produce the look of a Civil War tintype.

The project lasted 5 years + each subject was presented with a paper wallet size copy as metal objects are not allowed behind bars.

Snoqualmie Falls is Washingtons most popular waterfall. Video of the falls were used in the opening credits of the 90's tv show, Twin Peaks. This is a vantage point that is no longer accessible . A new boardwalk along the river was built but limits people from getting too close.

Palouse fall is beautiful and impressive any time of the year. In winter when the temps get down to zero it takes on a little different look. The ice that forms all around the falls gives it a temporary face lift.

I didn't have to much work with as far as color for this image so I processed it as black and white and really liked how it turned out. It reminds me of scene one might see in a scary/haunted movie. The Lighthouse is located just north of Newport Oregon.
