Robert Welkie revisited f8 and discussed again his photographic series "Anthroposcenic." The narrative below is from Robert.... "The title of this work is Anthroposcenic. It is a play on words with a fairly new word and an old word. The old word is scenic. The new word is Anthropocene. The British pronounce it An Throp a Scene. Our old geologic epoch is the Holocene. The Holocene had the benefit of about 12,000 years of stable climate since the ice age. The Anthropocene will likely have a different flavor. We are now in a period when human influence on the planet is an important geological consideration. My work is an effort to find the beauty in the transition. It is divided into four families of images. American Anthropocene, Animals, Fire, and Clouds. They all contribute separately to the understanding of the transition. It is my hope that the four families working together will provide a larger visual framework for seeing the transition." His website: www.robertwelkie.com Chris Kleine also showed some photos from his recent trip to Golden Butte National Park...there is no narrative with the pictures beow
