Inspire me

I was a photo major in my undergrad years at MICA. I studied how to use film, filters, processing chemicals and lens. I worked in a darkroom with a red safe light that dimly lite the room. It would take me 5-10 minutes to developed one photo. One may think that this would make me crazy, but I loved it.
But the old ways of analog are for the most gone. In with the digital darkroom, and out with the old ways of chemical smelling dark rooms. And that is why I love seeing a photography that marries the two ways of making a photo.

NOA AZOULAY-SCLATER is an artist living California, she use a film camera and then up loads the negatives on to the computer. 

Here is some of her work:

  1. I took film photography and loved it. I am currently in a digital photography class, and it is ok but it is just not the same. I don't think I will ever convert. The dark room and watching your prints appear is just so magical.

  2. I believe it is the closes thing to alchemy.
