I, Hyper Critical

I did a tremendous about of shooting in January which led to many nights of scanning. With over a hundred images now on hand, I became hyper-critical of my new material.


That’s me! Shot with the Olympus Stylus 80 on Kodachrome 200 film

So, I stepped away from my work for a few weeks. When I returned, I was able to look at it all with a fresher perspective.

Fellow FLICKR members have been very helpful and encouraging by posting comments or even selecting my shots as their “favs.” So, here are some shots from the last few weeks. Hope you like ‘em.
