Trick of Light

Another roll with my film camera has found its way to the light that I let it see. I am starting to develop a pattern with these film images and I am slowly getting an idea why I am shooting what I am shooting and it is exciting to say the least but I wont get into that just yet. Here are a few odd ones from the roll. My favorites from it can be seen on my flickr page (see navigation to the right) and I have a few others I will post there in a couple of days as well.

    b/c i accidently stumbled across it while visiting to grab a new spring-y work desktop… and there i am in my pjs… wandering the isles while my photo is being taken unbeknownst to me… grocery shopping is quite a personal thing you know, to be taken very seriously, & sneak attacks such as these reveal the true intimate nature of such a process. :)

    It’s interesting how your obvious eye for photos differs from film to digital medium. Nevertheless you still have a great sense for scenes. Love it!

    Yeah, its strange to me too really. I just see things differently through a film camera than I do through a digital. I think that what I try to do is use a camera to the best of its ability and take photos of things that I find are its strong points. Like the film camera I have seems to be good at moody lighting and colors but falls flat when its to bright or something of the sort. The digital I approach in a way where detail is king and knowing that some simple color work can bring an image alive I see things differently with it. Hmm.. maybe not the best description of how I look at it but close enough perhaps.

I ask that you refrain from using any images found on fiftyfootshadows.net to create physically printed material of any kind. This includes posters, photographic prints, fliers, etc. Under no circumstances may you make a physical reproduction without written permission.

These rules also apply for any artwork or imagery submitted and shown within this site which was created by an artist aside from myself. Any images submitted and shared as wallpapers are the property of the artist who created them and in the same manner as my images, you are asked to receive permission before using them in any way aside from their intended use. Any use of these images outside of for your own personal use as a desktop wallpaper image is prohibited without permission from the author of the image. Commercial licensing is available upon request. Please write with any inquiries.

When sharing images via your personal blogs I kindly ask that you link back directly to either the post the image was taken from or the base of the website at www.fiftyfootshadows.net and give a credit to www.fiftyfootshadows.net. Do not re-post full resolution desktop images anywhere without permission. If you would like to use an image for your blog background or something of the sort simply write to ask first. Support the artwork you admire! Also, it is greatly appreciated if you do NOT link directly to the zip files. This is more or less the same as re-posting them as it circumvents the tiny bit of support I ask of you which is to simply link back to the original post for others to enjoy the site.

It’s not fair to artists if you do not credit their work and link back to the original content creator. It is theft plain and simple and blogs that attempt to somehow be mysterious by not giving credit to the creators are simply hurting the artistic community as a whole. If you love it so much then please, support it! The artistic community on the Internet is based on trust. Without trust then what do we have? are you going to be one of the responsible users out there or will you be among the bottom feeders, stealing content and passing it off as your own to make a quick buck in ad sales.

Use your best judgement and we will get along just fine.

Thank you for your understanding and support!
