There are some excellent shots there. Moody, high contrast. Love it.

Generally quite creative and moody. I don't like the way digital handles
(doesn't) high values. Some shots remind me a bit of Jerry Uelsmann except
he did it all with film and enlargers. Check him out here

Been a Uelsmann fan for quite a while, you gotta respect his darkroom work.

Hey, I've had you bookmarked for ages..

I enjoyed your article about your process. I, and several of my friends,
have adapted it to their own needs.

Also enjoyed the dust devils movie! Awesome.

Why shoot black and white? Because it isn't color. Color is for vacation
snaps.

I'd love to see some of your results using the process and how you've
adapted it.

Glad you like the Dust Devils ;)

They're not nearly as good as yours and I'm still hacking at it.. the
problem I have is that things begin to get really grainy in Photoshop. I
wish I could just dodge and burn highlights, midtones and shadows in one
swoop instead of having to do each individually.

Here are some samples.

The music was perfect and the whole treatment was extremely creative.

I can't remember if I commented in the past or not, but worth another
comment even if I did. :)

I always enjoy browsing the pictures at your site. Well done!
