Darkness Creeping

1/500sec 100mm f/13 ISO 400

Today’s post is gonna be a dark one, because the darkness is creeping inside my mind. The pain and anguish of the time of what was lost is burrowing a hole deep into my soul. The sorrow filling my heart and changing my…..

Alright enough of that nonsense. My friend and I make fun of this game, Max Payne, because the narrator is always talking like that. Everything is nightmares and dreams and visions of darkness. Playing with this image I was able to recreate that concept. You have this killer cloud in the background with a nice radiant white, and then you have this wispy black fog creeping in front of it; completely ruining the image. Not only that, but the trees are very dark and blocking more vision. I thought it worked well.

But what makes me get these types of thoughts? It has to be from something, right? Well, I mentioned I was going to have some awesome photos from my 35mm film adventure walk, but the film was old. Nothing showed up on the rolls. That is two rolls down and 0 pictures to show for it. I was upset this time (not the last because I was a goose and didn’t know how to take the film out properly and it got exposed to light and even if it was new film it would have been ruined). So I’m not in this “darkness creeping inside my mind” funk, but more of a potentially awesome day turning out to be not so nice. Alas, I must trek through this debacle and rise above (so dramatic). I have new film, and I have plenty more days to adventure around. So, I leave you with this image for the day. Hopefully when you think about the darkness creeping it is only because it’s getting late in the evening.

Until tomorrow.
