Green Terror

Green Terror

This blog has languished and I apologize. The stress of dealing with some less than professional people had me feeling pretty negative and it was impacting the quality of my work. New images will be coming soon, and the flavor of this blog will also change now.

Rather than just post photographs with links to buy the prints, I’m going to treat this more like a proper blog.  Just write about things that are on my mind, or things that I’m working on that relate to my photography.

It’s been a little while since I’ve worked with any models. But I’m still shooting. The attached photograph is a Green Terror, a kind of fish from Central America that resides in the aquarium in my home office. In the right light, his coloration is just beautiful and I hope I did him justice here. Mostly I am accustomed to lighting and composing for people. So it’s nice to change up from time to time and try my hand at more unfamiliar subjects like this.

Lately I’ve also been playing around with film photography more. I’m enjoying myself and hope to share some of the fruits of my efforts once I’ve got a good workflow going with the scanner (which is admittedly a bit of a pain to work with). I’m primarily shooting with a Mamiya C330 and a Minolta X-700 on the film side, but I’ll be picking up a Holga shortly as well.
