Freighters photographs are often about as interesting as your average band photo… in the fact that they aren’t interesting at all. Particularly in the Blue Water area in which I live, bad ship pictures are about as expected as bad pet pictures most places. But I have no problem using subject matter that flirts with cliché, since if I’m doing so it’s in a thoughtful, intentional way. I’m really happy with how this image turned out. I think it has a kind brooding, mysterious quality that I’ve never seen before in a picture of a freighter. I’m planning on using it in the conceptual series I mentioned in my last post.

Love this photo. Looks cold and eery.
