BELIEVE accepted to Viewpoint Gallery
Nov 12, 2019
I've just had two photos accepted into an upcoming show at the Viewpoint Photographic Art Center in Sacramento. The theme of the show is "Visual and Verbal", the relationship of words to photographs. The first accepted photo is "BELIEVE, by Laura Kimpton and Jeff Schomberg." The original photo is shown first here, as I shot it, from behind the installation. I always liked that the word BELIEVE spelled out backwards. I think it's more eye-catching, and it makes my mind work a little bit. It was only years later that I realized that a simple "rotate" in Photoshop could make the word spell out correctly, left to right. However, I've never posted that version before. It's not how I originally took the image, and to me it feels a little less interesting. I'll be showing the original version.
