What small-town photo album would be complete without a scene from the local barber shop? Actually, this one I retrieved from the archives - a post featuring the Modern Barber Shop I did some time ago. I decided this time (I believe it's the first) to covert an image into black and white. For me, barber shops are remindful of another era - before color film, before digital.
Ashland, Oregon is a town of 21,000 that has a lot in common with other small towns across America. It also has qualities that make it truly unique. Home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and Southern Oregon University, people from various backgrounds and places have chosen to call Ashland home. As a photographer, I thought it would be a worthwhile project to document the varied aspects of Life in Ashland.
