Today’s Visions

Photography that captures today’s visions for tomorrow’s memories

Futures - Photograph by Sherril Barnes.  2nd Place winnerThis photograph was taken on the streets of Soho, New York, New York. I tried to take pictures of the city to expand my portfolio but could not seem to pickup the emotion I felt there. The excitement, the stress, the never-stop rush that I always feel when I am there. Unfortunately, when I tried to photograph the buildings and area the photos seemed cold - indifferent. Not at all what I was trying to achieve. Until I took this shot!

The magazine page was just lying on the street - being kicked around by the numerous people walking on the sidewalk. I loved the texture of the sidewalk and bricks as well as the worn look of the magazine page.

This recently hung in a Riverhead, New York art show where it won 2nd place.

You can enjoy this 8 x 10 photograph, printed on high quality metallic paper, matted and framed in an 11 x 14 frame. It is being sold in my etsy store. Does not ship with the ribbon however, lol.
