ahhhh. Now this one, I'd like to live in, at least for a quiet while...

An old fruit or vegetable stand perhaps?

[cuntishness.livejournal.com]

wow. i'd love to see that as a print.

I like the first photo the best. Just an old one room shack with a tin roof it appears. Not even the eaves are enclosed. What a state of disrepair!
Great b&w shot!

Thanks for sharing these.

I'd like to crawl under those trees and read a good book.

unfortunately it's not that quiet... too close to the road.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

I suspect so. Or maybe t-shirts and rebel flags. Or homemade preserves and honey.

[misterx.livejournal.com]

which, the first or second?

What a state of disrepair!

and here I was thinking it looked pretty good compared to some of them. ;)

[misterx.livejournal.com]

they would let you.

i like how luminous the first one looks. if you don't mind me asking - what kind of camera do you use (and film if it's not a digital)? is it photoshopped at all?

[misterx.livejournal.com]

it's a canon 20d (digital).

I never know what to say to "is it photoshopped?". Everything gets run through a graphic program to adjust levels, saturation, contrast, etc. For instance, this was shot in 12 bit color, converted to black and white on the computer, then a subtle sepia tone applied. That's the equivalent of darkroom processing to me though... things you do to the entire image. Never mind which, I shoot RAW format... raw sensor data, not jpeg or tiff. It isn't an "image" while it's in the camera. It isn't turned into an image until after it goes through the software on my PC.

The only *selective* editing I did was to darken the corners a bit, particularly in the foreground.

These are really neat!!!

sorry the second. the lighting and high silver tones make me think it would be just stunning.
