Compositions

Whether it be about a particular exposure or composition technique, lens or camera, film emulsion or digital sensor, this blog serves the purpose of allowing me to document my photography in quite a different, and no less personally important way. Compositions allows me to compose with words about what I compose with images. Because a picture is worth a thousand words, but occasionally that is not enough.
