The Zen of Film vs Digital

Found this post from Chase Jarvis's blog and had to make note of it. It is a great post form Doug Menuez of his (I guess) new blog Menuez 2.0. About Film vs. Digital, a very good read and I have to say he hit home so I got out the 1V and shot a few rolls today. Really felt good...

THE ZEN OF FILM vs. DIGITAL GRATIFICATION

“Mulling it over, I couldn’t articulate it fully but definitely, I knew I had become lazy, really lazy. A spectacular sloth by the standards of shooting film. Film is hard. Film is a stone cold unforgiving killing bastard. Film is once in a lifetime, no excuses. F8 and really, really be there: ready, steady, in focus, correct exposure, and pressing the shutter in synch with life.”

Thanks to Chase Jarvis for bring it out to more photogs.

Shots from Joshua Tree

This was my first visit to Joshua Tree State Park a couple of weeks ago. I was lucky to hit the golden hour just right and get these fun landscapes. I could have used a 6 x 17. I will go back with one next time.
