This photograph idea was heavily influenced by the all time great photo of the Bud Fields family made by Walker Evans. I want to try to do more of these type photographs in the future. I might move up to a 8x10 camera (like Evans) from my 5x7. What I find amazing after looking at these 2 images side by side is the fact that 80 years after Mr. Evans made his portrait, families are still living in such deplorable conditions. How can that be?
Here are blogs I wrote earlier about the wonderful Evans photograph.
