Finding Zen









A series of photos that I have been meaning to shoot for a while now. Quite a while.

My sister asked that I shoot something for her new house. Nothing specific, only that it fit the zen quality of the room that it would be in, preferably black and white or sepia toned, and that it be a triptych to hang.

I've had ideas in my head for quite a while about what I wanted to shoot, but haven't had the time or motivation to actually take the photos. I finally got to the photos today and found that in creating some zen photos I found a bit of zen myself.

It's funny... I think sometimes you have to take certain photos at the right time to get what you want, and sometimes that moment finds you so that the photos do as much for you as you do for the photos. I'm crazy, right? 

Oh. Click through for full view, they look better and show more of what detail there really is. I think in 20x20 prints, these will be pretty nice.

Polaroid



Been playing with some polaroid lately, took a few photos this past weekend. This is from a Polaroid Land Model 350, which shoots on 100 pack film.


The film, of course, is from Aperture in Tremont (www.aperturetremont.com)
