Tunnel Girl..


While walking the dog and shooting a little from the hip as I walked through town the other day, I decided to snap a few images of the new underpass in Jasper. It was built for pedestrians so that when trains go by (which is quite often) they can pass under the tracks and make it to the other side instead of having to wait for long periods of time as 11,000 foot trains go by at 15 mph.

So when I started shooting the tunnel, just as an experiment to see if it would look cool for future portrait projects, there was no one around. Then people started showing up and walking through and this image of the woman walking through sort of caught my eye. Of course it had to be in black and white, the color version has no punch and looks shitty in the tunnel, less color takes my mind of the rest of the clutter. Maybe soon we'll get some actual summer weather and I can get out shooting more often? Only time will tell.

Oh yeah..I joined Twitter and y'all should follow me..... @JeffLewisPhoto
