This week’s Time and Place photo comes from 855 Peachtree Street NE.

When considering which photo to use I was asked if this image was posed. I always think this is a somewhat loaded question. In this situation I did ask the subject if I could take his photo before I took it. He was aware that I was taking the photo — does that make it posed? I think any time I take my camera out in public and people see that I am taking their picture, they act differently. Is that posing? Does that make the photograph less genuine and less factual?

This week’s “Time and Place” photograph comes from a series I’ve been doing called “Atlanta Light.” Every photograph one takes essentially has light as its main subject because the light more than anything defines the emotion of the image. And every place has its own lighting characteristics.  Here in Atlanta,  I have been especially enchanted by the light which comes through the overpasses. I drive through the underpass by Creative Loafing’s office usually 5-6 times a day and every time it looks different and mesmerizes me in a different way.
