Home Sweet Home

March 14, 2009 Mahbubur Rahman

I've always liked this car - not sure why, maybe the ruggedness of it; maybe the rough edges has a certain free-spirit charm to it. With the top down and the doors off, its an awesome car. I'm sad to say, I've actually never owned one of this. Seeing this in the mix of all the snow, she sticks out and looks out of place with the bright red, but at the same time she seems perfectly comfortable - to be in this mess. It's where she feels like home. Don't we all want that feeling?

On that note, this is the last of the snow series from Caumsett State Park - future photos from this place should have no snow, and a lot more green :)

Division

I named this Division, because with everything white and gray, the only thing keeping the sky and the land apart in my eyes was the barn and the trees - hence the title... Snow day in Caumsett State Park, Huntington, New York.

The Drowning Tree

Another picture to show the vastness and overshelming nature of snow. The tree is like is drowning in it, struggling to stay afloat - and another cold, cold portrait of Caumsett Park, New York after the snow storm.

The Bus Stop

Another brief intermission from the wolf series to go back to the cold snow day in Caumsett Park in Huntington, New York. The bench is a recurring theme in my photographs, when I first started experimenting with the emotion 'loneliness'. Since then, I've just become attached to pictures of benches, so here is another one.

Projects

The Tattoo Project
In this project, I have tried to take portraits of people with their tattoos, proudly showing the part the tattoos play in their lives.

Bangladesh
My country gets a lot of bad rep, and the only news you hear about it are about floods, cyclones, tragedies, political turmoil, etc. Its not what I remember growing up. I wanted to show a country that has so much more to offer than the sum of its statistics.
