Recently, while driving in Michigan, I noticed a lot of red barns. I decided to start taking a picture of each of them as I drove by at 55+ mph. These are a few of the resulting images. I like the subtle evidence of my process that appears in each of the photographs.

It's not often that I see dead animals in the city or anywhere else for that matter. Recently, however, I wasn't too surprised to come home to this dead bird. The apartment building, in which I live, is home to a few other tenants and their cats that roam the hallways, going in and out as the door is opened. I image that one of these cats left this bird at the front door.  Finding the dead bird at the door was odd and, at the same time, somewhat charming.

I like each of these photos for the same reason. Each image shows the type of "looking in" that is only possible when it's dark outside and light inside. I would like clearer images, taken with a tripod, but I also like the personal implication of the blurry, long exposures; the camera was obviously in someone's hand, mine in this case, showing the momentary voyeuristic nature of these anonymous images.
