Description

My first photograph minted here on Versum. This image was taken right about the time I became seriously interested in photography, and is one of the oldest images I have on film. It is a portrait of my dear friend Jimmie. Jimmie and I were sharing the rent on an old rundown brownstone apartment while attending the Herron School of Art in Indianapolis. The neighborhood was notorious for violent crime and drugs (simply known as Talbott, it was the 'Haight-Ashbury' of Indianapolis). I snapped this while Jimmie was peering out at the street down below, beer in hand, exhaling the smoke from a Chesterfield cigarette and contemplating life in the ghetto. This photograph brings back countless memories for me... we were young and having the time of our lives, regardless of our surroundings.
