Daily Practice - An exercise in intentional image making
Date: September 6, 2025
Description: Cars and Coffee
Daily Practice - September 5, 2025, Leo Carrillo Beach
GFX100RF, mostly candids taken with intentional XPan crop. One environmental portrait.
Daily Practice - inspired by review of images by Saul Leiter and his use of looking through things. I walked upstairs to open the shades and the window, but first I this light and this scene.
Daily Practice … I now hereby commit to a daily practice in photography. Some days it will be about making images integrated into my daily routines of walking, hiking, shopping, cooking, hanging out around the house, etc. Other days it will be about editing, evaluating, and exposing my work to others.
One of the big reasons I bought the FujiFilm GFX100RX is to be able to shoot in an XPan format 65:25. But with that big wide format comes a big challenge, how to fill the space responsibly.
Saturday, August 23, 2025, I walked inside the historic carousel building at the Santa Monic Pier with no expectations. But this day the shot fell into place.
