Travel

In a few days, I will find myself on a plane headed to Scotland. I will be spending time photographing in the Western Isles, specifically the Isle of Eigg and the Isle of Harris.  I was lucky to have biked through this area a little over 10 years ago, but it was somewhat of a blur as I pedaled past beautiful beaches and craggy hillsides. This time I intend to spend more time studying and photographing the landscape. I hope to share some images from this beautiful part of the world by early June.

Images from Thailand - Accepting what is
This Black and White series from Thailand below came about due to a few unforeseen factors and mistakes...I did not "get to know" my new film (velvia 100)  before leaving on this trip, which is especially important when doing very long exposures. I usually shoot Velvia 50, which I know quite well but wanted to try a different version. Velvia 100, so I had read, is better for doing long exposures.  Film can act funny the longer one exposes it to light, such as strange color shifts, tons of grain, or exposure difficulties, to name a few. Velvia 100 had all of those strange shifts and more.
