Artist's Comments

*claytes asked me why I haven't submitted anything lately. Nothing good has came up really. It's dark, and I get dull photos not worth seeing. But here is an example from my first roll ever developed at home! It's shot on Delta 400 and for some reason developed in d76. Still need a little practise.

The focus is f**ked up, sharpness is missing. The lines are not straight. Still I find something interesting in this. Maybe the three shadows? The reflection?

This time, not a Leica. It's shot with Olympus OM-10 and a 50mm lens. Ilford Delta 400.

i would REALLY like to see this in focus. do you have a magnifier to focus it better? this would bee DD status if it were in focus, really good shot

I was shooting with the Olympus for the first time I think. The focus is bad because of my mistake. Don't know how to focus an SLR. Much easier with rangefinders.

So nothing can be done.

ya know.. the focus is off a bit but for some reason, like you said, it still sort of works.. the three figures look almost ghostly with the dark bodies and blown out borders around their heads. what bothers me most is the deep background... try cropping off the top inch or two.. do it in your browser. i think it helps a lot

thanks for sharing, though! :D

Yeah, you're right about the cropping. Makes it a little more tighter, as it should be.

Thanks!

I don't think artists are underpaid. I think artists shouldn't be paid in the first place.

Gotta love this type of street photography. :) Love it.
You get so drawn in you hardly notice the lack of focus. :)
