    "it's not about film, it's not about the camera.. you know, but it's about life and it's about these people and about these moments..that's what photography is about." That inspires me on so many levels. There are so many reviews online about the best film and the best camera but this dude is about the bona fide moments of everydayness that make existence so intriguing. I love it. Thank you for this piece.

    True that. I guess for some people, it's easier to review something physical and tangible. Spec sheets, test shots on microdetails can only get you so far. The 6 inches behind and in front of the camera are the most important things.

I'm trying to capture an independent view off the of what it means to be 'Nebraska Nice' I'm a Latino hipster but proud to be a home grown homie. I would love any advice, ideas, and what kinda images that comes off being a home grown minority in the beef state ?

    On the streets there is no permission needed. Just be respectful. He's shooting film so he can't just delete a photo. If they ask, try to explain what you see and why you took the picture. BE BOLD
