High Fidelity's photostream |
Photography has more or less saved this year for me. Before I had started it I had only guitar, and even though I have been playing for a long time I am getting virtually nowhere with it of late. Through photography I hope to better myself. First and foremost I wish to view the things I take for granted in a refreshing new way. Secondly I want to make things around me to look good to others through my lens. There are many other virtues to photography but I haven't the time to list them all here. Among them are the benefits of travel, the paper trail of daily life and, let's face it, it's just really fun to roam around taking pictures.

"Such a gifted young shutterbug. He just keeps getting better and better. I might have to kill him."

"I am extremely proud to have shepherded Mr. High Fidelity onto Flickr only a few months ago at the beginning of his photo obsession. Lordee, has he blasted off! He has no idea how excellent his work is already and I can only imagine what will come with just another few months. He can be a purist one week, a perfectionist the next and then wildly experimental (with great results). He's a serious photographer with a serious hat to match!
I love when he goes noir. I hate when he takes pictures of me but he's so cool he's excused for such sins.
He's also a great buddy (with Kodama) for shooting adventures in lurksome noirish surrounds!"8th May, 2005

"Too many times HF has stopped me while we were out somewhere to take a picture of something I was sure would come out terrible. I of course tell him every time. And every time he winds up with more good pictures than me.
He definitely has an eye."9th January, 2005
