Timonthy Treadwell: Both cameras rolling both cameras rolling both cameras rolling

Sexy green bandana,
Ah last take of the evening,
I am on my way to the front creek I need to get water and there is a super duper low tide
Full moon tonight

Treadwell probably did not realize that seemingly empty moments had a strange secret beauty,
sometimes images themselves,
developed their own life,
their own mysterious stardom.

his demons,
his exhilarations.

Covering various years these following samples illustrate this search for himself.
