I know the chords that can relieve stress or strike fear. I have played many of them. I know the images that can frighten and inspire. I have captured many of them. I know the songs that make people laugh, cry and smile. I have sung many of them. I know the shapes that can make one ponder and that replicate. I have created many of them.

I love the arts because I love to express all the possible emotions to others and in turn receive their emotion. As long as I keep this knowledge in my heart, I will never be lost, no matter where this new road will take me.

Bump in the road

Tue Apr 7, 2009, 7:31 AM
The more and more I look, harder it is to find supplies for my photography =[ It truly saddens me that film photography is becoming obsolete. Digital has opened many doors for nearly everyone, but it's closing off my most favorite path. I am well aware that you can take B&W pictures with a digital camera, do countless things with a digital image in Photoshop and other programs and take thousands of pictures on one memory card. Those are all wonderful pros. Cons? There is no intimacy with the pictures you take. Having the ability to simply delete a crappy photo from your card and not be "wasting film", doesn't force you to really look at what your taking a picture of. If you aren't really looking at your subject and dissecting it, then you're nothing more than a snap-shot shooter. Film base photography offers so much more intimacy and skill development than digital ever could. When you spend an hour making the film negative and another hours getting your print just right, you will love that print for the rest of your life. Those images that make it out of the darkroom are images you will never forget and without your negative, can never be duplicated. Film photography will always be my love and passion when it comes to art. I will greatly miss it when every other company stops producing the film, chemicals, paper and manual cameras. I hope I am not the only one that is as saddened by this advancement in technology.
