Project VA

So it's been a while since we've collaborated on our project.  A lot has happened since the last post.  I went to VA, so in not so many words, I traveled 560 miles (by plane) to see my partner in crime.  While there, we traveled around to antique places and I found not 1 but 4 more camera's to add to my collection.  With my new finds, we spent a day shooting portraits.  Amy of course had to shoot me and all I wanted to do was shoot stills of my new finds.  What we came up with I must say is a success!  Hits for these on View Bug were overwhelming.  It was fun and as most trips are, at the end it was bittersweet to have to come home.

FAMOUS QUOTES

While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. ~Dorothea Lange

Often while traveling with a camera we arrive just as the sun slips over the horizon of a moment, too late to expose film, only time enough to expose our hearts. ~Minor White

When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence. ~Ansel Adams

A great photograph is a full expression of what one feels about what is being photographed in the deepest sense, and is, thereby, a true expression of what one feels about life in its entirety. ~Ansel Adams


Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face, the beauty of the earth and skies that man has inherited, and the wealth and confusion man has created. It is a major force in explaining man to man. ~Edward Steichen

Simplicity

Simple but with a vintage look.
