Harry Callahan


These pictures are taken on 35mm film, these pictures are grainy and monochromatic which makes the shadows look deeper and darker. This picture is particularly inspiring due to the simplicity in the composition yet the intrigue in it's style.


These picture is really nice (not because of the girl's arse) because the paleness of the woman almost illuminates the rest of the image, making the contrast more interesting.

This photograph is pretty nicely composed, however the depth of field is a tad too shallow for my taste. However, I personally like the sharpness on the photograph - especially on the plane of focus.
I am also rather fond of pictures taken on the 35mm format, which I do indeed attempt to replicate from time-to-time. 
This picture is inspiring as it shows how creativity does not always incorporate the technical aspects of photography.

This picture then incorporates that same idea, considering the picture is taken at an awkward angle which displays the reflections of the water and the skyline.

Bath Time and One Miserable Pug...


So I just bathed my dog, dried him and let him do his thing...then he just sat there miserably for about five minutes without moving, so I had the uncontrollable urge to take some photos of him and take advantage of the situation. I like these photos because the aperture was set to about f2.8 or so which made the background look more tender, to benefit the idea of how miserable he looks.
Taken with: 

Canon 700D with Sigma 30mm F1.4 Art

London















These photos were uploaded from my trip to London. The architecture is really nice in London, and looks superb when you grade your images to a saturated monochrome as the images tend to look more dramatic due to the harsh contrast and sharpening I apply in post.

Although from an artistic standpoint, these images are post modern and are heavily inspired by Ronya Galka and Matt Stuart, although I only admire these peoples' work, I do tend to apply my own style in post.
