Fascinated

Basically, this is not a post with pictures. I just feel the need to leave a few words about me and photography.

I'm becoming more and more fascinated about this journey. I have a strange and nice feeling every time I'm developing a film and everything smells like it was developed. I know the visible image will appear on my negative and it's forming as I stand near the tank. I'm trying to imagine what happens there, in the dark, and even if I know theoretically the process, I can't stop being fascinated by the fact that an invisible image, formed from salty silver takes life.

Every time I look into the viewfinder it's like I step into a whole different world. I lose track of time and reason and if you'd ask me after that what was I thinking about when I was looking through it I would not be able to give a clear and rational answer.

As I press the shutter, I know that in a fraction of a second every bit of my "shutter trip" is physically forming an holistic image and even if it will not show clearly in my picture, I know I have it.

Millions of tiny particles are joined in an immaterial entity; one controls the particles and gives them felling and soul. And the essence, lies in how the light makes it.
