First, thanks to all the DA support I get from each and every one.
You may, or may not know it, but you DO have an affect on my artistic psyche.
Originally, I wanted to feature analog photogrqphy from my friend's list....but ...too many for the time I have.
Suffice it to say that if I have ever commented on your page, I have likely purused your analog work...or read in interviews about your analog work....and it has pushed me...and pushed some more.
Yesterday I received my Holga...and with great pause, I will go forth into the (somewhat)unknown.
Having complete control has always been an approach to the art for me. Having the camera a little out of control just seems crazy. Maybe that's just what I need...we'll see.

Either way, it's a new part of the journey..oh yes..I do find this a bit exciting.

I will start tomorrow. Today...I get a root canal.



..."if you have no camera experience, please invest in a digital slr because a digital point & shoot will only get you so far.
once you’ve learned how to use a d-slr, you can branch out and start playing around with analog cameras, textures, and mixing different media.
try to not be so bound by the set rules of photography or art.
and don’t forget to use your eye; your eye is your best tool… and it’s free!" ...Jill Auville

Thanks Jill...and all the DA gang...you rock!

Hopefully something worthwhile will show up in a week or so.

Gotta go...got a date with a dentist.
