Direction

I'm trying to redesign my website, which is another story in itself, but in doing decided to get some of my film scanned professionally, so it was scanned without random hair lines, proper color balancing, and a lot better resolution than my scanner offers. In doing so, I went back through what is a year of film photography. The images varied from slides to print film to black and white film, and from 35mm to 6x7 medium format film. I've shot through two 100 foot rolls of bulk black and white, and then a smattering of other film purchased one roll at a time. I've also shot a lot of medium format, in quite a few different cameras. And on top of that I've shot a lot of digital pictures. Doing a quick count of images stored on my computer, the number comes out to 13,136, with probably 200-300 coming from when I got my first point and shoot digital camera, to when I first got a DSLR. Going through the images made me look back at all I've done, learned, and enjoyed.

I found it was a lot easier to go through film and pick out keepers, as with digital I'll have six shots of the same subject, with little to no change. So the first batch of "looking back" images are all from film, shot in Spokane, WA or around Alaska. I'm putting them in chronological order, as well as I remember the order, to show where I started and where I'm going. Next I'll be doing a look through my digital files.
