Reservoir Dawn | Large Format Landscape Photography

In this weeks video, I head out to a misty and foggy North Yorkshire reservoir, where things don't quite go according to plan.

The Japanese concept of wabi-sabi encourages us to embrace imperfections. Consider the object on its own merits, nothing is truly perfect or permanent. While you may wish to consider the reasons for the “imperfections” in the image, at least in order to control the process, the image in my opinion is still quite beautiful. I enjoy your videos, the relaxed style and the fact that you show the process and the results however imperfect. Thanks.

@@darrelltheriault5793 Hi Darrell, thank you for watching and for commenting.
I love the work of Moriyama and the other Provoke era photographers and the wabi-sabi concept in general, so I agree that imperfections should be embraced and I’m always trying to remind myself to loosen up and let go of technical perfection.
I do get a little insecure though when I have no idea how the imperfections occurred 😂.
One of the reasons I enjoy lith printing so much is that I’m never quite sure what I’m going to get and while I’m sure better printers that me can replicate quite closely their lith printing results, I find it very difficult, which again adds to the uniqueness of the print and can be seen as a positive.
Thanks again for watching and I’m glad you liked the video.
Thanks
