The Whole Story - Photo by Richard e. Arp-Barnett

Time again for another edition of The Whole Story.  I admire people who are adventurous enough to seek out interesting places to photograph.  After seeing this image I really wanted The Whole Story from photographer Richard Arp-Barnett.

The Photograph



The Whole Story

Taken during a group explore during the late winter months of 2013, I’ll remember this capture for the beautiful water reflection and opportunity to spend a day with friends new and old learning about and capturing  the history of Detroit. Flat on the ground in a water filled floor with a mobile device, the feeling was that of being submerged in time with those that came to worship and pray at St. Agnes.

The Photographer - Richard e. Arp-Barnett

A journey of discovering others, what others love, and self discovery are reasons why I am passionate about photography and choose to devote time to capturing life images.  Urbex photography in particular and the art that can be created from its beauty have my attention at the present time.  The special camaraderie of exploring with amazing peers and mentors of this photography community into places many might find foreign to their lives adds a sense of uniqueness to this adventure.  Life changed pretty radically and unexpectedly over the past two years with losses of loved ones and a modern day corporate downsizing and job elimination after 13 years of professional work experience at EMI Music.  What better time to reinvent oneself and pursue new opportunities!  Mobile photography is one of those avenues and I’d like to thank Geri and each of you for sharing your art, your imagination and unique perspective.  You matter and make a difference.
