    I’d love to find a small digital rangefinder with a larger lens to carry everywhere with me. 25 years ago I always carried Grandpa’s Yashica Lynx 14e and 4 rolls of Tri-X with me “just in case”. It was fun.

    I like how the approach to black and white photography is different from color. For B&W I concentrate on contrast and form as well as the subject but with color my focus is on saturation and the ‘shape’ of color. I don’t think information is thrown away. I think it’s about working with the strengths and parameters of the medium.

    Or sometimes it’s just play. Astronomatopoeia is play.
