Really love the way you are going on this one. Not only do I shoot exclusively with film but I am an avid gun shooter as well.
Analog photographers who develop and print their own work can really appreciate the skill and effort it takes to produce images like yours. You have inspired me to give it a try. Maybe.

Gas, This was a friends gun that I actually got to shoot, I was more excited about taking its picture though. I think it is the other way around, doing this digitally is much more simplistic than doing it with film. I think you should try though!

Expert avant garde work! It's the kind I appreciate even if it isn't my personal style. Dali-esque.

With Jerry it's not only the idea but the execution of the idea which is art.
Absolutely agree. I saw a collection of his work on exhibit. Fascinating and thought provoking are a few words that come to mind, but they were all examples of his incredible talent in the darkroom.

BlueMorel, I had to visit google...while I could not recall what the term Dali-esque meant, I realized I am familiar with it and find it interesting. Thank you.

Nice work. I'm an admirer of Uelsmann from way back.
Thank you. I was not familiar with his work before the museum introduced him to me, other than perhaps seeing his most famous works but learning his process was impressive and my respect for his skills grew. I just cant imagine all the calculating it must take to put these together in the darkroom.
