Rambling: 1) To move aimlessly from place to place 2) Habitually roaming; wandering.
Chris Willingham is a photographer stuck in a family that would prefer he be a doctor. At age three he got his hands on a camera belonging to his mother and hasn't stopped wasting film yet.
He likes to photograph that which lies in limbo; somewhere between creation and utter destruction. Objects and buildings forgotten by previous owners and inhabitants are his main interest, but he also has a love for kidnapping friends for a day and then photographing them when they least expect, or want, to have their picture taken.
With a camera in hand, Chris feels that he can do anything and go anywhere. Sometimes others disagree, but that has yet to stop him. This book is a testament to that attitude.
The hardcover version of the book includes two more photos in the dust jacket.
