My aunt Kay owns a cabin on this lake and my wife and I frequently vacation there. The shot was taken early on a very still, late autumn morning as the sun was cresting over the mountains. I was able to capture the first light in the sky on the mountains, lake and trees, by using my pinhole camera. Therefore, extending my exposure to 30 minutes. You can actually see the rays of sunlight in the sky.

Artist Statement

In expressing the narrative of “The Western Abandon” Cody Brothers concentrates his focus on abandoned farms, crumbling homes, neglected churches, aging cemeteries, forgotten cars and other objects, set within the vastness of the southwestern landscape. He works almost entirely with infrared film, using a range of different cameras, from a 4x5, a 6x17 panoramic, to a pinhole.
