Bare Ruin'd Choirs, Series #1
"That time of year thou mayst in me behold
When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold,
Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang."
Wm. Shakespeare, Sonnet #73
These photographs of cottonwood and sycamore trees, shot in winter, call to mind Shakespeare's words. Printed on Harman direct positive paper, the expected image is reversed, making the resulting prints even more striking.
