Art and the Evolutionary throwback. If the creation of the electric violin or guitar never wiped the relevance of the Wooden ones off the earth, maybe we have hope. A huge part of me hopes and wishes that the atavistic art styles make a turn and come into fasion agian. I feel like I could have captured the analog life style just as easily if I took a picture of my twin lens 120mm Camera that sits on my shelf unfixable. It might have been even more powerful but it saddens me when not 5 years ago knowing how to develop a roll of film was a great tool to knowing photography. Now we go no further then clicking the button and sending it along the USB super highway to photoshop. I would like to see how far I get in this site with out ever registering my PHotoshop software. I might find some pictures need a bit of contrast, I might just have to reshoot them. Its the best part of the process anyway.

I think there will always be hope. But again we call it hope for a reason. Is it something that will be or something we wish to be. I am with you. I remember the days of the actual creation of the photo, the peice of art that you could hold in your hand. From the loading and winding of the film to the developing of the film and the peaceful setting of the dark room. It was up to you to create the masterpeice. Now its seems as though a four year old can do the same with a cheap $50 digital camera and something as simple as Roxio Photo Suite. But is that a bad thing? Or does it make art more accessible to the masses? I believe that you have to take the good with the bad and realize that it just is. Life is ever changing and ever evolving. But I belive that there is always hope. And hope keeps everything alive.
