Inhaltsangabe

Photography on analog film has simply put received a recent renaissance. In our digital age, I guess a romantic veil surrounds the analog approach to photography. Even when shooting digital cameras, we do postprocessing to simulate the look of analog film. We talk about the specific and beloved look of certain films, and how their sensitivity and grain add a charm to the image. Delving deeper, a reason for the analog renaissance might be our growing desire to slow down; to immerse ourselves and sharpen our creative senses by restraining the means with which we photograph. Where the digital camera is soon so perfect that we as photographers can sometimes feel redundant, the analog camera requires our undivided presence. These cameras are subject to the same limitations as they were in the dawn of photography. You must visualize what you want to create beforehand, and you cannot rely on an lcd to feed you the result. Thus, in analog photography we are forced to slow down, plan, create the right circumstances, and capture the wanted picture at the decisive moment.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

The author has photographed since the age of 7. In the beginning with a borrowed camera, later with a row of different cameras. At a young age he started developing at home and set up a darkroom, to be able to create the final prints himself. He has photographed many different genres from portraits of humans and animals, via nature sceneries from all over the world, macro photography, and action. The latter has been combined with his interest for climbing and mountaineering to become part of his livelihood. In 2002 Bo, as many other, converted to a completely digital workflow, but not long after he regretted this move, and took up analog photography once again. Today he use both analog and digital cameras, but when he wants to delve deep into creative photography, analog is the preferred way to go for him.
