The Starting Point
To photograph is to hold one’s breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It’s at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy.
For one year’s time, I plan to fulfill the ideals within this quote; to take my Leica M4 and with my breath held, capture the world on film. As a film photographer, I’m already comfortable with sliding a roll in the camera and feeling the tension of the film as I advance it. So why am I doing this project? Mainly, I want to get better. This project seemed like an interesting way to do so.
I’ll be starting this project soon. Possibly in the next couple of weeks, but first I just need to finish the rolls of film I have in my other cameras.
