Landscape Portraiture

Paige on the Tracks
Photograph by Tom Atwood
Paige Sturley agreed to experiment in landscape portraiture as part of her senior pictures photo shoot yesterday. I have photographed these railroad tracks near Worden, Illinois before, but always without any people. I wanted to see what adding a person to the landscape would do. And so, Paige was added -- in this photo she appears almost to have been cut and pasted. But she was really there. Part of the landscape. July 5, 2011.
