These fotos R a variation 2 a pinhole camera done a la consumer digital ( Canon PowerShot A620 ) camera. I like 2 call these my ¨SALTY HOLE CAM¨ a foto series. I have been abusing digital technology since I switched shooting from analog in attempts to get what I like to think as the grit & grim of film back into my image. I like the immediacy of the new technologies ( like that of Polaroid), I am just not certain that I like it´s highly polished image quality all the time. I am looking for the surprises film processing once gave me after processing a roll of film. I was one 2 always really abuse film badly & I will continue this same manner with these new digital tools. I hope U can appreciate where I am coming from with all of this. Perhaps, I just spent 2 many years in darkly light rooms 2 not want a wee bit of that magic in the final outcome & results of what I consider 2 B an interesting image.

I tend not to use photoshop. I always upload to iPhoto & use the adjustments settings as if it where a colour enlarger, like in the days of darkroom colour printing process. So, if that is considered too digitally modified then I am afraid a colour photograph stripped of all its colour is also to be considered too digitally modified, NO? I teak my contrast, colours and exposure not unlike a print to be produced for exhibition. This simply said I think that I abide by the JPG rules. Now, this may just be a case of personal printing (style) techniques & how I photograph my images.

I believe this image falls within all respects of the rules. NOW, U be the judge?
