I looked at all your astonishing January 15th uploads, to select a favourite for comment. It's this one. One reason I chose it is that it has 7 comments before mine, and every one is from a photographer I admire, although for different reasons. What's interesting to me is that 6 of 7 commented on what you were doing in this image, and not on what you were saying ... the process, rather than the meaning.
I liked the process, too, but I loved the meaning most. This is all about mortality. And not just the obvious chair - also the tires (discarded at various stages of their potential lifespan), the aged planks of the floor, and especially the unidirectional shaft of white light; they're all deeply suggestive of mortality. This photograph recalled my late father for me.
The lighting just rocks. That hint of the old floor boards is wonderful. You should have your work in an expose!!! I can see it up on the walls and rich people looking at them over their glasses on the end of their nose - paying big bucks!! MAN - you're good.
