Worth Waiting For
It’s too almost too hot and humid to take pictures outside, so I play around in my garage studio, where the light is soft and the mosquitos mostly leave me alone. I take pictures of fruit and vegetables from our CSA box, sweat running down my back as I try to hold still. I take digital images first. These are those. And then I mount the medium format film camera on the tripod, attach the cable release, and take the same pictures. Different lens, different focal length. Still sweating. The first one is a little busy. The second one, a little wacky. I can’t wait to see how the film versions compare, so you may see these photographs again.
I’ve been waiting my whole life for this. The opportunity to discover myself.
