ary snyder's photostream  

Lover, friend, reader, writer, moviegoer, bike rider, animal lover, lost... and photographer, which is what I'm best at.

Regarding my photos, there are a few self-impossed rules I follow:
1. I avoid touching anything. I think of myself as a hunter of images, thus I have to shoot every image as it is.
2. I use only available light. I try to keep myself away from flashes —though I do use them when it's inevitable (it should be in less than 2 per cent of my photos).
3. All my photographs have to have at least one point in focus.
4. I don't alter my digital photographs (or the ones taken with film, which is not often now) in the computer anymore that I would in my dark room (when I had it), that is, only a little bit of brightness and contrast, maybe a framing adjustment. But just a little bit. That's it.


All the images you see, even the absolute abstract ones, are photographs, like this one:




My favorite lens is a 100 mm macro, and my cameras (film and digital) are Nikon.



I invite you to check my site where I also keep a blog with reflections on photographic matters as well as other things that interest me and, obviously, new photographs. The address is: www.arysnyder.com

Thank you and let's go shoot some great pics!
