Thanks for viewing.

[CWyatt]

Missed one!

[asp1880]

Awesome. I really enjoyed these. They convey a nice mood, esp. in concert.
Regards,
--Anders.

[Tamia]

Anders said it. I like all the photos in your series. Each one has something special about it.

[Dice]

Thank you for sharing another beautiful and what feels to me a very personal series of images. I have enjoyed all of the series very much and it has given me a different idea about beautiful images.

[CWyatt]

Thanks for thoughts, glad to hear it feels like a personal set, that's very much the intention. One utter last one (like I think I mentioned, there's a parred down series I'll be adding to on the website, I think three posts of this number of images is enough!)

[causey]

We're debating the new camera, the new sensors, and then... your pics... mystical. So faithful to life.

[Den]

Something about #2. Gave me a sorta deja vu feeling. Great set of images.

[Ash]

A fine vintage series Camus. Thanks for sharing.

[Sailor]

Terrific - it's great to see photos produced with a viewpoint a but orthogonal to the norm. Great job.

Wonderful series. Great slice of your life. Thanks so much for allowing us to see a bit of it.

[CWyatt]

Thanks very much. I said before but I tossed it up for a while whether I liked it, however overall I think the feeling conveyed is what I was going for. One problem is that the retro-look is pretty popular now with hipstamatic and instagram, and so much that comes out of those is just average snapshot photography that one worry is the images are kind of rejected out of hand due to the look, which mostly seems to be a way of making images more interesting when the content or composition isn't interesting by itself.

Was difficult choosing the final series from these three posts (and other images too), in part because some of digital images I already have in black and white and prefer them that way more as stand-alone images or part of other sets. There are maybe half a dozen like that, some included in these sets as colour and some left out.


The other thing that was tough was getting the digital shots to look similar to shots taken with a fifty dollar plastic camera (which is actually surprisingly decent). I think the final product is hard to tell the difference, so that's good.

A real pleasure to view, love the film look. Glad you kept these over the years to share. thanks Bob

[CWyatt]

I thought I'd add, for interest, that most of these are either digital (Pentax K-7) or Holga 135BC, which actually pretty decent in terms of 'image quality'. Do have some with the classic 120N medium format camera, but that thing is really something else. I really like it, but it's so different it doesn't fit in well with the other images as a set. An example:
