Drawn to landscapes and architecture but not averse to venturing outside of my comfort zone with a camera in front of my face. I adore most forms of art but I am most at home in the realm of photography.🏞️

Digital and film.
Pinned
I have been in a creative and inspirational drought for around eight years now and have barely touched my cameras in that time. Two of my good friends got married last weekend and I felt a creative spark I haven’t felt in years.

The curlews arrived this morning- woke up to hear them outside my window - just the best sound & feeling 🤎

I was just talking to someone yesterday about how I have never had the opportunity to shoot reversal film. The richness and depth of color in this image are exactly what I was trying to communicate to them. This makes me want go buy some right now!

Hello! I'm Samirah and I just joined Bluesky a few days ago.

I've been making nature inspired functional pottery in a range of styles for 13 years. Here are photos of past work. Recent work incorporates regional rocks and minerals into my clays and glaze.

@ericg.photography Do you happen to have any pointers on a logical workflow for converting to black and white using #Darktable? I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure out which modules to use as well as how to properly prepare a parametric masks for various adjustments.

The ever changing light is what makes Patagonia so very special. In Torres del Paine, a spot lit iceberg is dwarfed by mountains in the shade, except the jagged summit, bathed in the warm afternoon sun.

I'm calling upon the #EastCoastKin collective to share your favorite art feeds in the comments. Here are just a few of the feeds I follow. There are some really fantastic artists hiding in these feeds and I am constantly looking for more.

Happy Friday and go make some great art this weekend!

Time for a bit of a throwback to that time in 2014 when I was in college and we built a #CameraObscura for Art Day. A thread.

For those that do not know, a Camera Obscura occurs when rays of light pass through a pinhole into a dark space onto a surface.

#longexposure #infrared #bnw images can certainly give off a #dystopia vibe. Especially when combined with an old snag with exposed roots sitting in the bay at low tide. This snag is long gone now, unfortunately. #photography #landscape #ir #fullspectrum #720nm #EastCoastKin #blackandwhite

Go Wide. This is hard to see on a phone or tablet but this #panorama was made in Central Florida. It is a longleaf pine stand. This #infrared image was made with a #fullspectrum conversion at #720nm. #bnw #EastCostKin #panoramic #blackandwhitephotography #photography #landscape

I presented to a Canadian camera club last night, concluding with a short, "You are are dear friends and neighbors. Don't give up on us. We're sorry for the trouble."

The group leader lightly admonished me later for being "political".

No egrets (except this infrared one) – the sentiment stands.

I’m having trouble getting motivated recently, just so upset by current events. It didn’t have to be this way😞

As we head into the last days of #MayLeaves here's some #Rain (of which there has been way too much of over here in Quebec) ... on Hemerocallis fulva leaves.

Searching for help from my fellow photographers! Can anyone point me to some good tutorials for #Darktable? Video tutorials are best but written is also good. I have experience with Lightroom but it’s been about 8 years since I’ve used it.
