digicam

florida hotel grounds

spent a few days in orlando for work & while florida is not high on my list of favourite states a walk around the resort grounds with my digicam one afternoon did make things seem a little better.

digi in the dusk

took my latest digicam on a drive through joshua tree national park in the late afternoon sun as storm clouds rolled in.

I’ve been having a lot of fun with the ricoh cx3’s “high contrast black & white” setting & I can’t wait to have some bright southern california spring days to play with.

digicams at night

a couple shots from a night out in downtown la with my 2009 casio.

dreamy disneyland digicam

spent a day at disneyland & disney’s california adventure reliving childhood memories & eating dole whip with my sony bloggie mhs-pm5. I like the dreamy quality of the sony bloggie when the the light gets low, it becomes almost like a memory.

a saturday spent wandering around joshua tree national park & morongo valley california with a 2010 sony bloggie mhs-pm5.

the impossibility of perfection

journal:

this is the core of the digicam/lofi/camcorder appeal. everything in our world got so polished & perfect & flat; the pressure to look like a glossy magazine life got to be so much that these frankly shitty early devices became irresistible. you literally cannot produce perfect glossed over documentation with a 2004 point & shoot digital camera. it is actually impossible. so the pressure to attempt to do so is lifted entirely. it’s a liberation from the confines of perfection.
