I've begun to rekindle my love for photography as of late.
Such a love comes for all forms of photography however it is most loyally upheld with analog. I like streaks of developer, marks on negatives and really just all imperfections are beautiful!
I don't think photographs should necessarily be perfect, elements of imperfections create a sense of honesty and love for the image. The film has been touched, used, printed, and thus is authentic. No image will ever be the same.
Saying this i still like perfecting analog images during the developing process, or via digital enhancement, but only to a basic degree [digitally]
There is so much i haven't done yet with photography, in my recent project i touched on slide making. I want to attain older cameras and to grips with medium format.
It's rare to find the talent to actually take really good photographs in terms of technique, composition and knowing the science of the camera, as well as having a concept that can be well executed.
Skill cannot be learned, it's just there, however I want to learn all the basic ways ways to use a camera well, so i may take a decent photograph, thus being able to appreciate 'making' a photograph in itself, but with the whole process being so scientific i find this hard to get to grips with.
Anyway here is some thing that i like, i was surprised that i found such subject matter allurring as normally i am less attracted to portraits and nudes. These are rather fashion based but i love their coquetish nature, the vintage quality and the blue and red lighting. The artist in question being a a girl called Iris it seems, who i found hunting around bloggitys.
Divine!
