That being said, I think it is stealing my soul.
Slowly, but surely I am becoming less happy with my own photography. As far as the wedding photography goes I couldn't be happier, but the art that I so enjoy has suffered immensely. My digital pictures are nice and often pretty, but I find that I am much more likely to snap a hundred pictures and then just pick out the best than I am to take my time and capture an image worth studying. The gray scale rendition also leaves something to be desired. It looks to my eyes very fake and unflattering. This could be do in large part to the smaller dynamic range of the digital sensor when compared to film. This will surely change as time goes on, but as of 2008 there is a remarkable disparity in the dynamic range of film and digital sensors.
I've decided to set up this blog to discuss and share my resulting artistic works in film photography. My name adorns no accreditation as a great artist and I'll make no such claim. My technique is often flawed and my results less than perfect. I love to borrow images from the world and that is about all that can be said.
I'll start it off I suppose with a picture I recently took in Indianapolis on the way to the Kansas City Irish Fest.
This gentleman stopped by to enjoy a few moments of Millish preforming and his attire transported me back to a whole other time. I wish people still wore hats.
