ok... now i understand... i'm mister concept man... from my art gallery and teaching back ground... so when i get "the bigger picture" it makes sense.... you are taking us somewhere twith this narrative... like building up to a climax or sorts then .. as in - all will be explained in time sort of thingy? the bottom line to this Ulf is these are great shots... if you shot them on medium format or 5x7 they could be up on a gallery wall. Me thinks the minute presetation of the web takes away from the docuatmospheric potential of these shots. Hey maybe i need to add a vote!

^ That's it. I'm attempting to produce an effect of a gradual reveal for that handful of people that look at Polanoid on a daily basis. It's a little silly of me, but I like sequencing the photographs this way the best and dislike uploading more than a half a dozen photographs a day. When the series is complete it will be backasswards in a Memento/Irreversible manner, since just about all photo sites default to reverse- chronological browsing, oh well. And yes, these descriptions are a part of a narrative, albeit it not obviously so. Thank you for saying that some of these shots strike you as fit for a gallery...the small presentation size is definitely an issue with some of my photography. I think at a later point I will augment my description with links to Flickr photo pages where the same photographs will be available in bigger sizes. Whew...so much catching up :-) Oh yes, thank you for your vote, too!

great series.

^ Thank you very much! To tie in with my earlier reply to your other comment...the description in this one isn't so much banter as it is a clue as to what everybody is up to in this rather large documentary series.
