Mark.L. (down to earth)'s photostream

Finally I have updated my profile, since Brittany came back from NY with a suitcase full of knitting stuff this will be my photostream only. Though from time to time I will be uploading some of her work.

I am absolutely in love with analogue photography and have a small and simple collection of cameras, wich I tend to keep this way, I am not a collector. Just like here on Flickr, I tend to keep my contact list small, I collect contacts either.

I am even more in love with Kodak's Tri-X, developed in D76. One of my first photobooks was Magnum's Landscape, becaming my bible for photography more or less. The compositions, the feelings, the grain, sometimes even smudges, the textures, incredably tonality, and supurb landscape photos of all kind. I just love the classic touch this combo gives to photos. I am not after quality in terms of sharpness, pixels or what not. There is quality that goes beyond quality is what I am seeking for.
