Here are some shots I took some time ago
I really like these Ray.
The first is very interesting and shows the marginal side of Stockton. The rainy shine and the color on the old tin sheeting adds to the photo.
The middle image, at first look, made me want a different angle, closer and more of the person... but when I really look at this, I see the early morning cut and watered lawn and well kept buildings in contrast to the person sleeping on the sidewalk. Even the slant of the photo says something about this persons downhill slide. I think this image might be good in B&W. Maybe crop out some of the street and sidewalk.
The last one is the kind of image that Stockton is trying to project. I hope the city see's this one. It's what Stockton strives for. Lovely reflection in the water. A perfect shot.
Stockton Calif. fell a long way after the 2nd world war, their was a lot of Government (federal) jobs their on the waterfront, That has now closed down and no longer are needed.
