I know that technology has really facilitated our lives and that's cool and all, but with photography, film is still, I think, fascinating. I mean you have this anticipation of what your photograph will look like. I remember growing up when I would finish the roll of film, go to the drugstore to develop it and I would show up later to look at the photographs and I would just be giddy with excitement. Here's one of the photographs with film...Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
This is my dad's bible, in my parents room in Mexico. He built a little alter with this bible holder and he prays every single day. I like that the bible looks used ya know, like it's not been sitting on some shelf collecting dust. His glasses being right there just shows that he finished reading the scripture and he casually set his glasses afterwards...I just really like the lighting of this photograph and I swear I couldn't have done this with a digital camera. The digital camera would have wanted to correct some of the low lights and would have done this image pin sharp which would not have given off the same feeling as it does now being a bit blurry...I love it.
