Vermont, Reuben Cox, and the New York Times Magazine
I made this photograph while driving through Vermont after skiing and visiting an old friend and his wife.
What is pictured is a nearby river beginning to overflow it’s banks due to rapid snow melt combined with heavy rainfall the previous night.
It brings to mind Reuben Cox’s photographs that were recently published in the New York Times Magazine. The photographs accompany an article and it is a must-read. If you’re going to spend 20 minutes of your day reading something, do so here.
The article focuses on how severe the foreclosure crisis is and will continue to be, much like the river overflowing it’s bank and running through the landscape.
