Inspiration: Bill Jacobson

I cannot stop thinking about the way Bill Jacobson's work makes me feel. The mute fogginess, monochromatic tones and simple subject matter create a sense of helplessness. For as long as I stare at his images, I still feel concerned for the subjects.. as if they are displaced from their own emotions and surroundings.

Here are a couple of pinhole photographs that are my attempt to convey the same feeling:



I enjoy the dark quality of these. However, I would also like to try the white on white method.
