I enjoy shooting with 35mm film. Unfortunately, my prior experiences with color films left me with a lukewarm taste in my mouth. On a recommendation, I tried some Kodak Ektar 100. Some of my shots were badly white balanced, but this came straight out of the camera. I can't believe it's not digital! I adore the colors and composition in this shot!
Its funny, really. I've been visiting this creek since I was a small, small child. And since then, I've always thought it was Reedy Creek. It was only while naming this photo that I realized that Reedy Creek, or what I thought was Reedy, is actually Sycamore Creek. That... Explains a lot, actually. Like why there's no reeds. This was taken near the old mill ruins, but around the bend from the bridge. It was taken handheld with an infrared Canon 20D and a stock 18-55mm lens at 28mm. I find that 28mm lets me focus properly without getting all the weird problems that IR can get shooting through a normal lens.
A classic Chevrolet pickup I saw at a car show in Cary. Finding angles that make cars interesting is difficult. You have so many angles that would be fine for an advertisement, but aren't actually interesting to look at. I tend to like viewpoints from closer to the ground, or really close to the car. I didn't like the color of this image so brought it to black and white for some post processing there.
