Been spending a lot of time on here!
Sometimes projects just come to you. I've been really struggling lately when finally I got "the itch" to go out shooting. I attached my 28mm lens for a change and went walked out to a gritty, industrial part of downtown Billings where I spotted the image "Accumulation" a few weeks ago. The lighting today was what I like, partially cloudy and moderately flat, and I had a few hours before my wife had to go to work and I had to watch the kid.
On my way back I noticed a rezoning notice in the park, I was nervous that they were going to redevelop part of North Park into housing. Fearing gentrification in the Northpark Neighborhood I carefully read the notice and found that they were redeveloping the very area which I was photographing.
I don't know what kind of timeframe i'm looking at, and we may be leaving before they even attract any new businesses to the area. But I look forward to documenting the changing character of this neighborhood and it's impact on the surrounding area, as it transforms from warehouses and machine shops to commercial businesses and apartment buildings.
"Accumulation"
"Transit"
"Alignment"
"Storage"
"Skribble"
