People Making Things

A guy we keep running into, Jon, has been taking these photographs which he prints on wood. He is from France, lives in Long Beach and finds countless curiosities in and around Southern CA. I can relate to the ways in which photography forces one to engage in new surroundings, but the way he has digitally manipulated and printed these makes them feel almost like paintings to me- even colorized images. He makes his living doing other enviable tasks like making music, but what a nice side project. Take a look at the full catalog with MUCH better images at Reverse Photography
