Photography

I chose to start doing photography, because it allowed me a positive outlet of creativity. I have something to look forward to everyday after work if I had the time and film. And as I would drive around, I would scope out different things and see if there was anything that would catch my eye, and pay attention to the finer details. In a faced based life, it forced me to slow down and mellow out my thought process. For the fact that I only shoot on a vintage film camera from the 1970's, a Minolta SRT 102 35mm. I love this camera with the reguards that I have to wait and see after developing my film. The instant gradification of digital cameras does not spark my attention. But taking your time and setting up your shot and you have to control all the aspects of the shot is what i was looking for, and have found with my heavy, cumbersome, outdate relic of a camera.
