The Sleeping Giant

My friend and fellow photographer, Dave Rehrig obtained an image, while visiting Penn State which, we believe, was taken by Walker Evans. The scene was taken in South Bethlehem, PA. However, it wasn’t signed or noted anywhere. We both went online and couldn’t verify the photographer. In any event, we attempted to duplicate the scene and the first of the following images is my attempt at a modern day view of this place. While we were snooping around, I found a few other perspectives I enjoyed.

    I’m wondering….were you able to post the suspected photo here?
    BTW nice work on the attempts at reproducing a similar image. I love the dramatic skies.

    Frank, I always love to see old photographs and try to recreate them. Nice job!
