I thought I’d go back to posting film shots again today – although I may drop in the occasional digital picture now and then as I still have loads of decent shots taken with my GRIII on my recent holiday. I have another “Walk With a Camera” post coming soon – perhaps this weekend – as well.
Despite the title of the post, this tree has only the most tenuous connection with brides or weddings. It stands, however, behind a cafe where we got a sandwich after my wife had chosen the dress she will be wearing at out eldest son’s wedding later this summer. Maybe the post should have been titled “Back of the cafe tree” as that would be more geographically apt – the formal wear shop where my wife got her dress was further down the road.
Sometimes it’s hard coming up with post titles…

Ever have to fight the urge to just do a bunch of posts called “Post” or some such?

Maybe I should just leave them all as the default “Untitled post”. π

A picture’s worth a thousand words, I’ve heard.

I love your film photos. Something’s different about how you photograph, in my opinion. I think you might choose different subjects or compose differently when you’re using film. I’m not sure. I really don’t think it is just the “look” of film versus digital, though. I don’t dislike your digital photos, I just love your film photos very much. Thank you for posting them!

Thanks Frank. I definitely have a different approach when shooting film – I’m much more careful with what (and whether) I photograph. I try to use the same approach with digital, but it’s very easy to suddenly find I’ve taken dozens of not very interesting pictures. Perhaps I should try my digital camera with a very small memory card to see if it limits me. π
