Perhaps another fascination or infatuation … who knows? 😅
Austin with fam
Well this is what Thanksgiving weekend looks like with the fam in Austin … circa 2019
Another Roll or two ...
Well it’s happened … I’m not only shooting black and white film, but bulk loading and developing it as well. There’s a certain sense of accomplishment and intimacy that comes with the process and I just can’t seem to get enough time to take more pictures.
Here’s a sampling with more to come.
Film
And it has begun! I’ve been admiring the film work of many photographers lately and finally decided to take the leap. Since the month of September, I’ve shot mostly on 35mm film and must say that it’s been mostly exhilarating! There’s a sense of greater artistic control in camera … which produces awesome works of art. This doesn’t mean that I’ve got it down just yet … one comment from the company (Indie Film Lab) who developed my work was “Overall your film was an even mix of underexposed and well exposed frames … “ (too funny).
In any event … the following is a selection of shots taken while traveling with the family to Amsterdam & London back in October.
Essence of dinner with friends . . .
Spending time with great friends is so important in this day and age of "social media" and texting. Thanks Rebecca & Chris for a wonderful evening of chilling ... Chris your cooking skills are on point!
In Remembrance
Atelier 28 - Landscapes
Assignment: Show us a landscape, real or imagined. Tell us about a place: what happens there (or doesn't), who goes there (or doesn't), when were you there, why were you drawn to it?
Boston Public Library: Bates Hall - I was drawn to this venue because of the tones and light. The natural lighting pouring through the huge windows ... combined with the deep tones of the room along with a splash of green ... I could've spent a few more hours here.
Already looking forward to my next trip here!
Atelier 28 - Things We Love, Cherish and Collect
Can objects hold in them some part of the person who originally owned them?
Can objects tell stories? Can we give them new stories by altering the context?
Snow is . . .
. . . Monochrome
Send in the clouds . . .
A bit cliche ... but I'm not a writer.
On my way out to lunch today I couldn't resist the urge to snap a quick photo of those wonderfully puffy clouds ... haven't seen anything like them for a while now.
