Somewhere through the years I began to see landscape photos increasingly as artwork. The scene itself became less important than what the image could say in the abstract . When I compare the two styles of photography I often see a marriage in lines and patterns originating in the landscape. Lines in the trees and colors of sunsets. While I still use landscapes, now I’ve become much more proficient at searching out unlikely or unusual little corners of my visual world as a basis for an art photo. I don’t manipulate scene content with AI, which would be completely opposite of what I’m trying to accomplish here. It as much as possible about random interactions and the spontaneity of hastily taken photographs. Chasing the Tao. By way of example, the first image on the page Chicago Dawn was taken through a dirty rain streaked window of the City of New Orleans as it neared Union Station in Chicago. Mostly artificial light with a hint of sunrise sets the scene. Approaching dawn created wonderful subdued color with the street lighting, plus the "filtering” by the dirty window, plus the movement of the train car did much of the aesthetic work. An image out of a large number of images taken through the train window throughout the trip with my trusty Huawei P30Pro phone. The minimal time to frame the scenes as they passed by the moving train window really pushed that creative experiment. But now I fade into geometric abstraction.
