if you don't mind me saying, i think you should do more with this concept... it really catches the eye... and you can do a lot with it in terms of construction... more of what you've done already, like the selective focus...

i see what you mean, much like with your polaroid series. i have been playing around with the focus and depth with the medium format picture, it works so well with TLR cameras. and have tried it a lot with portraits and i like what i get (like here - [link] , and here - [link] , but nothing has worked that i would i want to do a series with, but i'm slowly working on taking pictures of something else in this style (like here - [link] ) medium format is a slow process for me, one roll lasting a few weeks, then 2 weeks to wait for processing, so it will be a while to see it.

first, the double exposure of the tree(s) great friggin' great... really... nice concept... nice execution... keep on that... i think you can get a lot out of that idea...

second... provided you don't mind my opinion... given the quality of your images... and the seriousness you seem to have about image-making... you need to start doing your own developing... its cheaper... its faster... and you can make so many small adjustments to your negatives in development...

i would like to do my own developing, i can do black and whites at school for free and i have - there are several in my gallery. but i do not have the means to develop in color, hopefully a few years down the line.

hhhmmm... if you can develop black and white, you should be able to develop color... i mean, of course the chemistry is different... but not terribly expensive...

printing those negatives... that's a whole different thing... that requires a special machine, etc...

anyway... thanks for the reply... and for the fav... it is much appreciated...

I love the creative use of focus to portray emotional gravity.
