Workin` the Heat

77 year old Clinton Sikes plays for the benefit of Youth Groups...or so he says. I say he's playin` for himself more than anything. He's alive, he's rockin`, he's givin` pleasure...F%^K You, Death.

Yes, I'm trying for an industrial grittiness with the high iso...other adjustments, dodge tool on the trumpet flair, levels to pull down the bright whiteness in the sign, one sign removed.

There is an argument that has been made to me that I talk and write too much about my images...taking away any mystery or projection onto the work itself...an important factor in the appreciation of art.

You know what I say?

See Clinton Sikes` comment above...lol...(But Geeze, do you know how intimidating it is to follow a Puff B&W?...Well, what's gotta be done has gotta be done. {grin})
