REARVIEWMIRROR A selection of auto-inspired images by ROGUEIDEAS
RETROPERSPECTIVE... The images herein constitute a small collection of photographs shot over the past three years. From wrecking yards to local car shows, they encapsulate and celebrate the artist’s enduring passion for photography – for the mind’s eye via a camera to see and capture that ‘moment’. The images range from photographs shot using trailing-edge technology such as Polaroid to leading-edge digital SLR and even iphone platforms with the Instagram app. The subject matter has been shot to record the decay, the beauty, the neglect, the love, the obsession, the style and the substance of ‘car as art’. Please enjoy...
