I called this photo Cups for the Sun and left it in full color for years. Then I decided to add an infrared filter to see how it would look, and I rather liked it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_719\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-719\" class=\"wp-image-719 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--300x280.jpg\" alt=\"Smiling kids with recycling art\" width=\"300\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--300x280.jpg 300w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--500x467.jpg 500w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--768x717.jpg 768w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--1024x956.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted--800x747.jpg 800w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BW-Adjusted-.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-719\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Students at Conte Community School with the flyers they made after they learned about recycling.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">The Recycling Children was one of the first photos I made during my five years at the Center for EcoTechnology. These were children at Conte Community School. My co-workers had been running an after school program there and on that day had discussed recycling. When I arrived the kids were busy creating there posters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>When they were done, they gathered at one end of the room + started prancing + posing. I turned a chair around, put my elbows on the back of the chair + started taking photos. This photo was penultimate image I captured that day, and I knew it when I had it. I took one more for insurance, but it was that second to last image. Years after this there was a desire to wrap a CET vehicle with this photo, but we worried that the permission the school gave us did not extend to that use.<\/p>\n<p>We used this photo in print collateral, the annual report, and things of that nature. Always in color. When I was putting together my portfolio, I decided to strip the image of color + I quite like it in black + white!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_348\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-348\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-348\" src=\"http:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"Fitness class participants from behind in black and white.\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99-800x532.jpg 800w, https:\/\/susanslattery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Web2017-99.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-348\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yep, the space was huge and miles between them.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Exercise Class at right was a photo I made during a brief stint at Berkshire South Regional Community Center. I spent about decade total working for small non-profits like Berkshire South, and at each of them, I took a lot of pictures. Because of course, they were doing super photogenic work. At each organization I was always striving to capture what I called iconic imagery. Imagery that would illustrate each organization in a single image. There are a few images here that I feel work so timelessly in black + white.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row 0=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text 0=&#8221;&#8221;]When color might be distraction.
