More fetish.

I'm pretty much freezing. My space heater comes and goes.

More from my Fetish series.


Zoophilia



Vampirism

I think I picked up my liking of vignettes from being a fan of Joel Peter-Witkin.

Not too much else to update, really.

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. 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.

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.

Baby, it's cold outside.

Here is another photo part of my Fetish Project 2009.



Back to more photos of the day...

January 2, 2010



I pretty much stayed inside this entire day. Digital image.

January 3, 2010


Look outside, it's so chilly. Digital

January 4, 2010



3200 ISO, 30 second exposure. It looks much like my next project is going to be like.

It's hard to make conversation..

When you can't get any words out.



Part of a series I did on fetishes in 2009. Inkjet print on Archival Paper. Currently working on other things, but I will post these past works till I have new work ready to show.

Also working on Photo of the Day things...it's hard to get them all up when you use film, but I won't limit myself to film. The next couple days were all digital, as that is what I took photos with.

First image is from Jan. 1, around 1-2am - of course, "NYE."



35mm, Kodak Gold 400
