My good friend Tom was willing to participate in the performance, although unaware of the exposure implementation. Sauntering over rough hills and through overgrown fields on a glorious fall day in rural Missouri, life is exceptionally excellent. Walking is one way to slow down the fast-paced world of modern civilization and allow for more thoughtful observation of visual stimulus. And the ten-stop neutral density filter also functions to slow down the influx of actinic radiation, allowing an impression to build slowly over time.
