Discovery is not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.

Momma, don’t take my Kodachrome away…

One of those funny stories that happened in early September. Actually the story is more in the “synchronicity” category. Anyway, I had just started shooting with the Hasselblad H2D-39 with those beautiful 39 megapixel files. I pulled over to the side of the road to shoot my very first real images with the camera. When I get back into the car, the oldies radio station is playing Kodachrome, that song by Paul Simon. Being once an old school photographer, I remember those days, and here I am shooting with the next generation device.

Maybe the H2D-39 is the next Kodachrome? The juxtaposition of the Kodachrome song with the technology of the camera was intriguing to me.
