365- January. (I’ve decided to stop numbering my shared images for my 365 in anticipation of sharing less.) From my first roll with the Olympus 35SP- my first rangefinder. Impressions? I am loving it.  I’m amazed at how different it feels compared to an SLR. It has a more fluid, less aggressive and almost meditative feel to it.  To me that is one of the downfalls of the digital age. The cameras just don’t have the same character and individuality about them- they are all more or less the same- and in that sense you can’t connect with them in the same way. Each of my film cameras seems to have their own unique personality which I feel becomes part of the creative process.
