- At work.
- Scattered solitude.
- With one’s pet.
- Peacefulness in the pages of a book.
- Last chance at sunbathing while relaxing.
- Choosing to isolate one’s self.
- A private hide away to read or play.
- Children run down a desolate slope.
For this shoot I set out to discover Labor Day. I found that although most people expect there to be an outbreak of parties and barbequing, a large number of people take this day to collect themselves and relax while reading or taking in the peaceful atmosphere that surrounds them. I felt it was important to explore this aspect of Labor Day and the quietude that is present as summer fades into memory.
i really enjoyed looking at these photos. The mixture of depths of field are great and the fact that the subjects are looking away from the camera is something different but nice. The different shades of green on the third picture is also a nice touch and it shows that even though a lot isn’t going on in the picture it is still pleasing to look at!
