What I kind of like about this image is how the texture of the old stone bank mimics the graininess of film. I stood directly in front of this very studious looking man to frame the shot and get the exposure right, and he never once glanced up. I wondered what it was he was reading that kept him so engrossed.

This was taken last summer in Providence, Rhode Island. I was only there a couple of days and it rained most of the time, but hope to return again at some point as there were endless photographic opportunities, and nothing about it resembled the south.
