Film still has a purpose

Digital is fast, film is slow.

Sometimes slow is exactly what you need.

I still shoot digital and film. Sometimes the pictures are required quickly, or just need to get on the web soon. Other times, I get to slow down and turn simply capturing a moment into telling a story and really making art.

This picture was shot on my Leica M2, on Portra 400 film. I love it, because it reminds me to slow down and appreciate life.
