in the most recent macleans magazine there are some photos taken
by a toronto photographer by the name of christopher
wahl. the pictures in the magazine are of some of protester's
outside the hospital were terry schivo died. the photo's are stunning.
it's a medium format camera and the prints look like something
that a holga or lubitel might take. i can't find the prints on
the macleans website but some nice images do appear on his website,
even if they are mostly pictures of famous people.
it seems that my photography is treading water.
i find myself feeling stale. sometimes i think that this is because
i don't take pictures of people. some how in my mind pictures
of people have depth and feeling that something like this garbage
bin can't express. i know that on one level this can be true but
i never see people that i want to take a picture of and wouldn't
know how to anyways.
i find myself comparing my progress with the computer with the
progress i should be making with my photography. while i feel
i have plodded along nicely with the computer, i can't say the
same with my photography.
