My Photography! [Warning: Lots of photos!]

[Miami]

Hi guys

Over the past two years while away, I've also thrown myself into photography. More specifically film photography. ..I'm not keen on digital photography. I find it lacks soul and it's just too easy to make a perfect picture.
I love the world of film. The simplicity, yet the skill involved to produce a good picture. I find it's a perfect balance.

Anyways, here's a little taste of my work. All using photographic film of some kind. NO digital cameras.

^ With this one, I put the roll of film in the dishwasher than went into a pitch black room.. spent 30 mins in pitch black manually drying every bit of the roll, then rolled the film back into the canister. The effects of the dishwasher chemicals gave some very interesting effects. With this one, it just made the greens pop out more and added some purple areas. But if you look at the one below.. LOL

Love the retro feel in the photos especially Pattaya, Thailand's Beautiful Sunset and A Man of the Industry , it's like being back in the 60's - 80's . Keep up the great work !!!

Awesome. I'm gonna look at this stuff high.

"Stream of Water", "Desolate" and "Gates to Wasteland" are absolutely great. Loving the effort!

'One, Canada Square' and 'Stream of Water' are hot.  :idea:

Adam, this is a side of you which I never would've expect. I'm shocked and apolled. This is some serious professional work.

I too respect the traditional film over the digital age of today - it also has one major plus on it's side - dynamic range. Unlike with a digital camera with narrow dynamic range, you can capture all of the view into the same photo; dark ground, light sky and between and they all will be perfectly visible like for the naked eye. As for digital cameras with narrow dynamic range, you'll either have dark ground and "correct" sky or "correct" ground and burnt out (completely white) sky..

The minus of film? Not everyone - like me, have the access nor the funding for the required equipment required to work with traditional films.

Absolutely agree with you. This is exactly my thoughts when it comes to film. I couldn't have explained it better myself. 
As they say.. "Film captures exactly what the lens sees... a digital sensor captures an impression and processed version of what the lens sees."

There's a lot of things you don't know about me.

Digital camera's have H.D.R. now, that combines several pictures of various dynamical ranges into one perfect picture.

Impressive! I do some photography, but I'm a cheat and do digital. I have now got a couple of cheapo film cameras though (like 30 years old) so I'm gonna try using them
Nice work!

The pictures are more than great. They're excellent. Digital photography is indeed less time-consuming and in some ways easier (with the many auto-correction tools and functions). However a true photographer or someone with the dream of being a good photographer wishes to control everything manually instead of a camera doing it for them; The results are most of the times fantastic in many occasions, like yours.

Myself am a (learning) Photographer aswell, With a new digital mirror reflex camera. I prefer everything manual, which does take ages but is worth the effort. Good pictures can be made by anyone. Excellent quality work however can only be achieved by those that will to work for it, I think you're a great example of that 'Excellent Quality Work', Miami.

I always saw you as someone with many insperations, you just have that expression of your body that shows creativity, insperation and true dedication. I'm glad that expression is actually the thing you do, To me you're a professional photographer, I look up to you

I - in no way - call myself a professional-leveled photographer as I do this just as a side-hobby to my music projects. But hearing what you've said, I can truly say that you've already made my day. This has really put a massive smile on my face and put even more motivation in me! Thank you so very much.
