So I’ve been trying to develop a style.
It has been actually quite difficult. With so many styles out there and so many talented photographers/artists it proven quite difficult.
I do enjoy the whole film aesthetic but I dunno if that is just a phase. I kinda hope it’s not. I enjoy the softness in the look. Embracing the film look is like rediscovering the soul of photography. It's about the thrill of capturing moments in their purest form, with the grain and grit of film (this part I am working on) adding a layer of raw, authentic beauty to every image. Film challenges the digital perfection we're used to, bringing a touch of nostalgia and a timeless quality that digital just can't match. It's a move towards creating pictures that feel real, that have a story to tell, and that stand out in their imperfect perfection¹.
Along side trying out a new style of imagery I am also going to try this blog. As I am not a big person for video, although I do admire people who can video themselves and then edit it. I struggle with listening to my own voice back in a recording 😅.
I would like to publish images here 1st then social media.
Here are some images I shot on Slieve Foye the past weekend.
Anyway I’d like to recommend a song which I find has such a relaxing mood especially for the song lyric in it. It’s a song that captures the bittersweet end of a love story, It’s like watching the last embers of a fire, knowing it’s about to go out, but still feeling its warmth.
