Bebe ponders as he “wanders”
Photography doesn’t always have to be so serious – does it? I enjoy a good bit of levity as much as the next guy.
A few years ago while out making some photographs I found some nice compositions, but needed an additional element – a person! Well who is going to get up at 4am and hike it out the door with me? Yeah, I thought so – no one!
Without another body close by, I had to improvise and use… you guessed it, moi! Then it occurred to me – if I’m going to insert myself into the composition I have to come up with a pen name. Hmmm? What to call myself? Well, my grandgirls call me Bebe and I love to just wander about… that’s it! Bebe Wanders. What was once a serendipitous moment has now turned into the beginning of some playful images. So, when you see or hear the name Bebe Wanders, please know I don’t have a twin brother. One of me is enough!
For now I’ll simply go on “wandering.” But, be on the lookout, you just never know where I/he/we may show up. (Besides it’s a good learning experience for me.)
I have a handful of images of Bebe Wanders on my website. Just type the name in the search box on the bottom of my home page.
