Stop! Did you hear that sound?

April 11, 2012 | No comments yet

It was soft, hard to hear. You had to be lis­ten­ing care­fully to have heard it at all. It was quick, ephemeral, but dis­tinc­tive. It was the sound of my 1D mark III shuf­fling to the num­ber 2 posi­tion. Still respected, still rel­e­vant, but no longer the top dog. I just fin­ished read­ing Zack Arias’s review […]

Taking a Step Back

March 19, 2012 | No comments yet

Today is going to be a lit­tle bit of a con­tin­u­a­tion of what I wrote after Tracy Turpen’s death a few months ago.

***Note: The Open­ing shot of this blog was obvi­ously NOT shot with a Fuji X-Pro 1, because they’re not out yet and I’m not spe­cial. I thought an iPhone photo was fit­ting because the X-Pro 1 should be par­tic­u­larly well-suited to this kind of incon­spic­u­ous, street style pho­tog­ra­phy. Because I never intended to make this […]
