Beauty in unexpected places
I never really did a lot of cross processing until around this point. Most of my attempts have produced a washed out look that was not really doing it for me until a set I did while out in the Stinson Beach area. I don’t know if it was the blaring hot sun that produced a massive amount of light or if it was cross processed differently but I was pretty happy with this and a few others. I like this one in particular because the flowers were very pretty and healthy as they grew out from between a crack in the wall and sidewalk. Beauty really is in unexpected places and I am glad it does…makes one always keep his eyes open.
A moment taken
I was driving along the California coast around Big Sur and saw this scene and had to turn back. I went back and composed the shot I wanted and continued on. It made me think of all the times that I wanted to do something and didn’t take the opportunity or didn’t scratch that itch and missed out on an experience. It funny what it takes to remind you to pursue things you want to see or try. Sometimes, you have to break the routines of your life and do what you want to try. This isn’t a new concept, but why don’t we do it more often?
