The Americans Photo Book By Robert Frank

Ya know, I’ve criticized the photo book numerous times on this blog. They are usually just meh to me. I’ve never looked at a photo book and been overly impressed. It would probably have to cover a specific subject I’m passionate about for me to be excited. Maybe I’m just not “intellectual” enough to getContinue reading “The Americans Photo Book By Robert Frank”

2024 Is The Future

I was watching Paulie B’s interview with Brian Karlsson and forgot about him since my departure from Instagram. We probably have a similar style. We both like photographing trash.

In Praise Of Deep Tone Monochrome

Since buying the Nikon ZF, I’ve had a change in workflow. Before with the Ricoh and Olympus, I would only shoot JPEG. With the Nikon, I’ve converted back to shooting Raw since I’d really like to get the most out of it. I’ve been toying around with a lot of profiles. The Nikon has a total of seven blackContinue reading “In Praise Of Deep Tone Monochrome”
