Any way.

Started taking photos of the day with film...may be a while before I actually get those scanned and up on here.

Here is more from my Fetish Project 2009.

Smoking Fetish

Smoking fetish. I really love this wall, and I used it in the next photo as well. Some may see it as repetitive, but I really just like the wall to be honest.

Mysophilia

Mysophilia.

I am thinking of scanning some of my older 35mm film work because you can definitely see how I came to do a whole series on fetishes - I did a series called "Peepshow." Some photos came out better than others, but who is interested in seeing these?

Quick rant, I wish people would understand the difference between a good photographer and being good at photoshop. Some times, I feel certain photographers rely so heavily on photoshop that it's lost the original meaning behind photography. Now, I do use light room for various edits but I really don't see it as a substitute for taking a good photo in the first place. I really love when people use photoshop but you can be convinced that they actually set that scenario up - which I am a big fan of. I love setting up "scenarios" without thinking "Oh I can just photoshop that in later." I love manually editing my own film - I find it interesting and exciting because unlike photoshop, once you do it, it's done and you can't go back.

Just a small thought.
