A guy, a valiant, a naked female form.

I'm having fun with recreating traditional darkroom techniques digitally. A solarized split-toned b/w print in the darkroom is a laborious process, but with a little playing around a very acceptable result can be achieved in software. A bit sad really, when true craft is lost, cheapened by digital, but it serves a purpose now and its pointless resisting it. At the end its the photograph that counts and not how it was achieved. The benefits of the digital age to are too vast and exciting to get stuck pining about how it used to be.
With every conceivable image treatment a tweak away, I find I am slowly being drawn back to an unmanipulated, natural aesthetic. Might be awhile off though.
