I have started many things in my life, some of which have never been completed. This image, taken along the Boise River Greenbelt is part of one of those unfinished projects. I began this project more than 15 years ago, shooting Kodak Tri-X film in my Super Speed Graphic 4×5 camera. I was about 15 images into the series when life took over. I was working at the time as a custom printer in a professional photo lab and at the same time starting up Moffett Photography, a high end portrait studio. I also had 2 young boys and another on the way. Life seemed to get in the way of my personal projects. I put this one on the back-burner, thinking that some day I would get back to it. Years past, I made the switch to digital imaging and I have never got back to this project.
Of all of my unfinished photography projects, this one keeps nagging at me to finish it. I am currently working on three projects, two of which are nearing completion. As I wrap up those two, I am thinking that the Greenbelt series may be back on the table, at least in the exploratory phase. I may even break out the old cameras and continue the project on film. I will be exploring all options.
Stay tuned…
