From the New York Times -- HDTV Pixelates Our Standards of Beauty

I read an interesting article in the New York Times magazine about new aesthetics in the age of HD.

Recently, I've been shooting on my large format camera and with a 645 rangefinder I borrowed from Bill.  I'll upload scans once I get the film processed.  I'm in the West Yellowstone public Library right now.  We drove across the UP of Michigan and along US 2.

I want to get closer and show more face.  Maybe use some reflectors to get better lighting.  I want to find subjects that make interesting portraits -- when they are zoned into driving, but their thoughts are elsewhere.
