MISTRESS OF THE SUBWAY

This photograph of the Mistress of Sarcasm (click to embiggen) was taken by one of her friends, a talented young photographer who joined us for coffee Sunday morning. I had seen some of his work before in Chroma, an art gallery in the City Market area where some of The Mistress’s work was being shown; and it was quite striking. Eerie, night-lit panoramas that made familiar parts of the city take on a whole new persona, almost painterly in appearance.

The July-August 2005 issue of Savannah Magazine showcases some more of his work: outdoor landscapes shot on several of the undeveloped Georgia barrier islands. Remarkable stuff. It’s worth it to try locating a back issue.

Colin Douglas Gray. Remember that name. When you see it, you’ll remember his work.
