ANCIENT TEXTING GONE WRONG


Click the image or title for fine art prints


Retro style view of an old typewriter set on a desk with multiple keys depressed to to several of the metal strike bars becoming jammed together and stuck. (Something those of us old enough to remember using these recall being a real headache.) This was shot in the old Lindley hospital in Duncan, Oklahoma where actor / director Ron Howard was born. Though I can't say the place is haunted, it definitely has a creepy feel to it while exploring inside. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

EMBASSADOR OF DISCARDED DREAMS

Black and white close up view of a doll that has obviously been through the ringer. Missing both arms and a leg, sitting in the doorway of an old house that was hit by a tornado and abandoned. This was exactly how I came across this, it was not set up, at least not by me or anyone with me that day. The whole town has a very eerie feel since it has been abandoned for many years. The town where this was shot is quite seriously the most creepy and eerie place I've ever been in my life, and this image sort of sums up the overall feel of the town.

HISTORIC CONSUMERISM

Selective color close-up view of a vintage Coca Cola sign hanging outside of a building. The round, metal, coke sign is in the classic red and white, while the rest of the image is monochrome and thrown out of focus using a shallow depth of field. The methods of delivery may have changed allot since this sign was produced, but the motive behind the advertisement certainly hasn't. Shot in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

HOT STUFF

Closeup shot of a glass ball set atop a brass candlestick holder with flames all around it. While I'd like to say there is a complex story and deep meaning behind the image, this was actually the result of being cooped up due to weather and feeling the need to photograph something at least half way interesting.

HARD PILL TO SWALLOW


Click the image or title for fine art prints


Close-up view of a prescription drug pill bottle, filled with bullets, tipped over onto the lid / cap, spilling bullets into the lid. All of the bullets, in, and out, of the bottle, are monochrome, except for one in the lid that is in full color. No matter what your stance on drugs and / or guns, I think that everyone can agree that both issues are serious, and something that needs to be handled very carefully.

SIMPLE STEPS TO WALK ON WATER (ALMOST)

Monochrome, close-up, vanishing perspective view of a walkway / ramp leading to a small fishing dock at the edge of the lake. The metal guardrails cast shadows onto the wooden slats of the walkway. With inset screws in the boards, reflecting the sunshine, running down the middle of the ramp all the way to top of frame. Shot in Duncan, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

SPOOLS OF THE TRADE

Retro style pop art close-up view of a ball of hemp twine set next to spools of thin wire. This began with a studio exercise in lighting, and shooting, highly reflective objects along with basically non-reflective ones, eventually evolved into this.

CANDY OVERLOAD

Vibrant color overhead shot of a random pile / mix of jelly beans and candy corn filling the entire frame. Just something fun and colorful to draw the attention and plenty of detail to keep the viewer occupied. Shot in Pryor, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

THE GIFT OF COLOR

Selective color close-up view of a hand coming into center from upper right frame, with a glass ball in the palm, and reflections of the surroundings in color shining in the glass ball. Sometimes a little color is just what we need. Shot in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

THE REFLECTING BENCH

Monochromatic ground level view of a wooden bench set in the water of the lake near shore, reflecting in the water around it. Water plants can be seen all around the bench, and rocks and shells on the lake floor can be seen through the shallow water near shore. The perfect spot to sit and reflect, in more ways than one. Shot in Salina, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.

TIME FOR A LITTLE DRIVE

Monochromatic close-up view of a toy / model car set on the grass, shining in the setting sunlight. This replica of an old 1940s type sedan definitely uses allot less gas, and is much easier to maintain, than the real thing. Shot in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. © Rob Heber - All Rights Reserved.
