Austin,
Thank you for the feedback. I'm a bit of the opposite. I despised most every image I make at first and it takes me a bit to see through the haze of perfectionism. Some peoploe asked me on Facebook what I thought was wrong with these images. This was my reply: "nothing is really wrong with these images. I liked them enough to share but I don't have a super strong attachment to them at the moment. Maybe that will change with time. My favourite two of these are the ones with the cross/stained glass and the bench. To me they both incite the best emotion and have a depth of experience.
What I mean by that is that I am hoping that the viewer will take the time to look closer and see things that they missed upon first glance and then feel a sense of satisfaction for looking deeper. To me that is the difference between a "postcard" shot and a true expression of "seeing". I want the viewer to see these as I did. Each one of my "successful" photographs was a moment in life that stopped me and made me pay attention and then to think about something specific in relation to what I was seeing.
This is my journey, to train myself to be able to see these moments and then successfully capture them in a single image that allows each person to take their own journey through my eyes.
The two images of Trafalgar Square on the other hand are just nice, graphic photographs. They don't make me think, explore or ponder. This doesn't make them bad photographs, it just doesn't go quite as deep as I hope to see."
Again, thank you for the feedback.
I am encouraged every time I watch that video. I have just started shooting 120 again and have done poorly with my first 2 rolls. The fist seemed to have good density and sharpness but the scans looked soft and contrasty. The second roll I managed to tear at some point around neg #2. I feel like I am learning photography all over again. I am encouraged every time I watch that video.
I know this is a BORING image but so far it's the best scan I have managed and this is the 2nd and torn roll; P67 with Xenar 150 @ ƒ5.6 Pan F+ in DDX. Just plain overcast lighting, outdoors just barely under the back porch with a light blue mottled BG and a flat flat scan. This has a simple curves layer and a selective color layer only but is sharpened. Now that I think I have a better understanding of what settings the scanner likes I can start working on my lighting ratios and light quality for careful contrast and added interest, then comes the "creativity" if I can muster it; I am eternally hopeful.
