He waved his laser pointer around the sky and told stories about the various things we could see and held us all, well, spellbound.
Read MoreI struggle to find the right words to express the story that I never thought I would be able to tell. Letters and fragments of sentences fill my head with pieces of an entity that is difficult to grasp, and I’m nervous that they won’t do justice to the virtually untouched splendor that is Sable Island.

Too often, in my opinion, people start a career as a photographer without the fundamentals, and it shows. Even to take the time at understand the different aspects of the process is a start.

Read MoreThere has been a upswing on Fuji Instax cameras and Media, mostly with university students. And the Impossible Project, the resurrection of the once mighty Polaroid. All this may signal that film is not dead and for the short term there is room for both the old and the new. Ansel Adams and George Eastman would be happy with that.
