Crick3's photostream

CollectionsSetsGalleriesTagsPeopleMapArchivesFavoritesProfile

I have been professional photographer since 1978, and I know what I like and how to achieve it. I photograph for myself and if you like what it is, that I do, I Thank You.
After 20+ years doing mostly commercial work I decided that my golden years,(can still see) that I would photograph the little things we all see everyday.

Enjoy.
All photographs have been copy written, do not use with out permission.

"Even a shadow, the emblem of all that is most fleeting in this world, is fettered by the spell of the invention, and remains perfect and permanent long after it has been given back to the sunbeam which produced it."
William Fox Talbot
The first 1400 images are analog and the b+w images were processed and printed in a wet darkroom, by me. 35mm, medium and large format cameras were used.
The rest of my images were shot digitally on Fugi FinePixS1Pro, Nikon D70 or D200, D300 cameras.
I thank you for taking the time to read this and viewing my photo stream.

"One of the reasons I bought my first film camera was because of seeing this man's stuff. His photos both on film and digital have always a sense of depth and perspective and harmony that attarcts me, but his film stuff just rocks!"

Funkybug says:

"I've had the extreme pleasure of following Crick3's work for well over a year now, and I have to say that he has never failed to WOW me with his landscapes. When evaluating my own work in this area, Crick3 is the rule of measure. I just don't think they get any better than this, be it color or black & white."

Mr.Hmmm - Digital Artist of Purple WF says:

"As I have look through Crick's photostream, I started to think presentation is important as much as taking good photos. You can clearly see what seperates the art from ordinary photos. Photos look like paintings and like a painter, Crick's goal is to present the view in its best. I learnt so much from him that photography is to reach a perception beyond our daily perception. Crick's photostream is "cinematic". There are shots that you could only see in a movie. So as to painting, photography comes close to an another field of art. Crick's photostream is like a visual diary. You'll wonder if you would feel and reflect it the same way if you were in the places where Crick has been."

"Crick3's photographs are simply breathtaking gorgeous!
It's a real pleasure to come visit his work and every time I see one of his new pictures, it carries me away and I feel like I'm right there seeing it all with my own eyes.
Merritt, your rock!!! :-)
Cheers!"
