White Chicks, 2024
The main street in Telluride, Colorado holds the attention of anyone with a visual sensibility; it is as good as it gets for a mountain town. There is a final frontier timelessness and then there is the grandest of mountains bossing all that happens below. Not much has changed in the last 100 years and I doubt much will change in the next 100 either.
My idea in this parody of the movie with same name, was not to disrupt the almost perfect symmetry of the view looking east. Indeed, with the right styling and the right talent, I could enforce that sense of balance in all layers of the image; the street allows for that opportunity.
The use of space is core to storytelling with a camera, but so often we do fall short, for one reason or another, in maximising the potential. That makes photographs like this more rewarding. The lines and the composition work.
There are so many people to thank for helping that cold Sunday morning in Telluride: the town and its mayor; the snow handlers and indeed the whole crew. But I want to specially thank the Josie and Holly and their respective teams who did a first-class job. It is not easy to look that hot when the temperatures are that cold.
