“I am a visual person . . . a former graphic designer. I see images everywhere. I love small details, things imperfect, and incomplete. My photos are my visual journal, showing snippets of life. My goal is to transform my photos into pieces of art. Flickr has given me the chance to share my photos, and view those of so many amazing artists.”

“The fact that I am writing to you in English
Already falsifies what I wanted to tell you.
My subject: How to explain to you that I
Don’t belong to English though I belong nowhere else.

“Like pieces of a delicate soul, broken but lovingly restored. The images in this stream are fragile, yet resilient. They are full of emotion, yet suppressed in narrative. Absorb their beauty in silence. copyright depuis 1965 is a veritable flickr jewel and her images leave indelible marks deep within my hollow.” (original ann)

Over the past thirty years, Michael Eastman has produced a body of fine art photography on subjects ranging from European and Cuban Architecture to Horses. This current American body of work is a project primarly about the preservation of a “Vanishing America.” “I love these old buildings and I love how they make me feel and what I remember. I feel a sense of urgency about this project because every time I go to another city, and I explain what I’m looking for, someone says, ‘Oh I wish you had been here a week ago or last year’…I need to photograph these places while they are still here,” Eastman stated in View Camera May/June 2005″

“I remember the day I covered this matchbook with a tiny bit of vintage silk damask I had left over. I was trying to pass time and forget that Gareth wouldn’t be home for another week.”
