Travis,in your own words(as an artists' statement)what is so great about your images?

They're dark yes.They allude to some obscure homoeroticism,ok.But then,what else are

you trying to say?I've been observing this scheize for quite some time(2003).So WTF Travis

are you all about?You don't have to answer,this is just the NET.donny.

mmmmm,she's one good lookin' babe.very nice.Would've liked to heard the tunes.Pardon

me ,I live in a police state.

Yeah I know,who cares?That is the national slogan among the nations' have-nots.Get

ready.

Why not call it the detumescence lens?Rather timely considering the state of the so called

union.

My apologies Frank G.I confused you as another,more notorious Frank P.Who has

previously perverted the purity of this forum,and is now banned.Welcome to the forum.

Sorry Al,I'd like to meet you in person ,as well as everyone else,but I can't afford it due to

the Canadian dollar relative to real money.Have a good time.In the future I promise not to

work on "runaway film productions".

Hey!My Mothers' friends beautiful ass.I love memories,therefore I photograph,therefore I

am.

Yeah,70's definately.Hairstyles,clothes,hand painted signage, and the peeler photography

with 50's lighting.To me,back in those days it did not seem as if one would observe the

same people as you would today "slumming it".Back then,those areas actually were 'mean

streets'.Now that particular culture(if you want to call it that),is somewhat sanitized and

mainstream.My shot was taken with a Pentax Spotmatic II,50mm smc f/1.4 .Was not aware

of Leica back then.

Back when coke was something one drank with rum,and the word 'extreme' actually meant

something.<div></div>

No Kent.I mean for B&W prints,I feel that using an enlarger and chemistry based methods

provide a more cost effective and high quality result.For colour, the inkjet wins(provided

your workflow is sound).Two aspects the B&W inkjet method does have as an advantage

over traditional darkroom methods is a high degree of consistency of results(high#'s of

prints looking exactly the same), and photo parameter control via Photoshop.Like

life,compromises after every sunrise.Good Luck.

Not tryin' to be correct at all.Just lookin' for more diversity in viewpoint of a subject.If you

wanna see smoking as advert writers want you to see it,by all means go ahead and

share.That is one aspect of freedom of choice.Just asking for images to counter balance

another reality, that is smoking.

HP Designjet 30 for colour.Epson 1280 with either the Lyson B&W inksets or MIS

continuous feed system.However, I still think traditional methods for B&W beat the

spraypaint options on cost alone.Prints look better as well, if you know what you're doing.

C'mon folks,nobody's got pix of smokers in wheelchairs at the palliative care ward?I like

some of the closeups.Expressions foreshadowing that 35milligram-a-day morphine stare

to kill the pain.Hollywood is just as guilty as big tobacco.How about you?
