LIFE photographer: John Dominis
I had the chance to attend a talk yesterday with LIFE photographer legend, John Dominis. I had some Tri-X loaded in my MP and was able to grab a few shots. The lighting was terrible, especially since it was hitting from directly from above and blowing out his 88 year-old head of beautiful white hair. 88 years old, and has lived the life that many of us have fantasized about.

The Color of Creation
More of that free Portra 160VC I got from Kodak a few weeks ago. Shot with a Leica MP. Lenses were the 50/1.4 Summilux (pre-asph) and 35/2 Summilux ASPH.

Going Greek Dutch
I've shot digital cameras for over 10 years now. I love the convenience of them. And certain jobs I would choose nothing but a digital SLR to shoot with. But there's a special relationship I've always had with film cameras, especially the manual focus rangefinder. And as much as I tried to get away from the grainy films during my early years of photography, when I returned to film 3 years ago, I found a new love for it...including the grain.

This beauty still shoots pictures as good as it did the day it was born.
