HUGER FOOTE Two Rivers
Of these photographs, Foote says: Light is persistent and present, even in shadowy places. These images look across a spectrum of life -- pastoral and urban, day and night, from Memphis streets to the quiet openness of the Hudson Valley. There is a "moonbow" included, a prism of light in the midnight sky. This is a time of transition and the camera comes along, pulling time from its seat and holding it for hindsight.
