Summary

"Dry Hole is an intuitive selection of images extracted from a collection of Real Photo Postcards (RPPCs). David Thomson emphasises details contained within the larger frame of the postcards by cropping into specific areas - a subtle nuance of light, a stranger's gaze, an impending tornado - where the mundane and extraordinary hold company in equal measure. The diverse collection of images elicits stories of past endeavour and adventures at the beginning of our modern age. A nobility of spirit persists amidst immense hardship, unfettered aspirations and hope." -- from https://archiveofmodernconflict.com/dry-hole-david-thomson/ (viewed 30 January 2023).
