Dsc_1982
I have thought about the old late 50's early 60's The Twilight Zone several times in recent days and I don't think it's just because I watched the July 4th marathon. I was always fascinated by how disgusting the swimming pool looks in the episode "The Bewitchin' Pool". These people are clearly wealthy but their swimming pool looks like it would be green in the episode if it were in color. In reality that was probably just the limitations and budgets of television at the time and the pool looked perfectly clear and possibly blue. Considering the heat I have also thought quite a bit about the episode where everyone is dying due to excessive heat because the Earth's orbit changed, but that is a different story.

Dsc_1993

Anyway the pool is now completely full and of course it's going to be a bit green until all the chemicals have time to do their thing. So I decided I wanted to take these photos with some filters that exemplify those photos we are so familiar with from "retro" days. Such as the seventies..and eighties..nineties? These are typically called vintage although I think all these filters are relics myself.

Dsc_2012

Adam and I routinely talk about innovation and what it means to be innovative and in photography and cinema what is art and what was the available technology. The grainy images from the seventies were somewhat faddish but also that was the best you could do with an affordable "consumer" camera. I don't know, maybe it's nostalgia that makes people want that again.

Dsc_2023

The good ole days perhaps? If it isn't the brown grainy sepia filter prominent in many of my parents photos from their early adulthood it's this overly dramatic color stain. To be fair, I can appreciate nostalgia and a different perspective and I even enjoy showcasing photos with these filters on them or "Presets" as Aperture likes to call them.

Dsc_1975

But then again, right here, right now, isn't so bad either.

Dsc_2024

It's flawed. And that's the way life has always been.

And a post in 2011 wouldn't be complete without the topical "Facebook profile duck face pose."

Thanks, Rory. You've been a doll as always, until next time..

The differences between a photographer and a mother..

Dsc_0050_2

I thoroughly loved these two photos (above and below) 

Dsc_0039_2

but her mother chose this one (below) to print the most. I felt bad that I had to placate her with her favorite toy, her mother however saw it as a photo of her beautiful daughter at 6 months old, with her favorite toy.
