Darren C.'s photostream

Thank you for visiting.

I've used everything from DSLRs to a plastic Holga camera. But I've decided to travel light for awhile. I got rid of everything except for a Panasonic Lumix LX5 and a pinhole camera that I made from scratch (f/140).

I live in Northeastern Ohio (U.S.) and work as a magazine editor.

"Simplistic, beautiful, amazing, peaceful. These are just some of the words I would use to describe Darren's photography."

"Darren is one of the few photographers I know on Flickr, capable to make beautiful pictures with pure photographic technics. I should invite everyone to take a good look at his Flick stream. There is a lot to admire and to learn."

Rough Olive says:

"Darren’s work to me is timeless and endearing. He sends me back to a place where I grew up. Through his photographs, we all have walked the road along side of him. His style is unique and honest. Thank you."

"Darren is one of the first flickr friends I made, and he's been a good one. Aside from his photography (which I'll get to in a minute), he brings a piece of himself to flickr every time he visits and is one of those people who make it feel like a real community to me. Unlike other online communities, where flame wars abound, flickr is a friendly place to be b/c of Darren and others like him.

Now, his photos! He often surprises me with new techniques and shooting styles, just when I think I can recognize one of his photos, a new style comes up and blows me away. His recent shots evoke such a visceral nostalgia in me, that I often take a few full minutes just looking and them and remembering wonderful things from my childhood.

Darren is a lovely man, and that's the highest compliment I can give a man."

"Darren has a great eye for amazing photos, and he is one of the best friends one can have on Flickr. Enjoy his photos and friendship."

"The first time I viewed Darren’s photo, I knew I was in the right place and would come back here a lot more—and more. Most of his photos are symbolically composed, framed with rich colors and compelling stories, and can be approached by applying different levels of interpretation. And they are all beautiful. I have become one of his faithful readers and viewers."
