    In this essay, I have discussed a number of choices made through a photographic field work about a chosen place. By considering the archive as a space with a possible built in creative intensity, archive material intertwined with contemporary findings become an active part in understanding the present in an ongoing narrative. In the field studies, I emphasize how the photographer, by adapting the gaze, becomes aware of the act of photographing and how it affects the choices that develop the process further. I also propose how the camera less imagery contributes to an expanded understanding through the immediate meeting between the site-specific and the material. Built into the definition of a place is also the question of demarcation through different perspectives. The chosen or the unchosen, occupies the same space.
