Artist's Comments

A handmade bench covered in frost that I stumbled on one fine day in the forest I grew up beside. It's for Al; someone who obviously passed away.

Nikon N80

Nikkor 50mm F1.8

Shot at F1.8, 1/16

Agfa APX 400 (Strangely, the grain is quite tight compare to the other images from the roll)

This is a FILM image, shot, developed and scanned by myself. I did a fair bit of post-work to get rid of dust and scratches, but it's not a photomanipulation.

Classical photo.

Sepia tones, strong imagery, good balance of blur and focus; gives the image more direction and establishes the overall focus of the photo. I like the amount of snow, although this isn't controlled it most certainly adds to it, the feel of saddness, but elation in the photo.

Beautiful clean up on the photo, I personally have nothing against using PS to clean up a bad scanner or low quality digital camera.

This is beautiful man. What forest?
You did an impressive job with removing scratches, because I see none, in any case I did, I think they would suite quite nicely anyways. It has that rustic feel. Awesome.

Rock on man :XD:

that is beyond brilliantly beautiful!
i am obsessed with pictures of frost on trees and suck, and that picture just has such a strong feeling to it.

the grain is really poignant to the image, it really enhances its nostalgic feel.
i love the blurry trees in the background.

Depth of field :). One of the most utterly fantastic things about having an SLR. Took me the longest of anything so far to figure out too >.<

Whenever you get a chance, if you ever decide to do street or low-light photography, a 50mm F1.8 (or F1.4) lens will get you that similar blurry background.

This makes me feel cold. I like this because of that.
