‘grassseeds’ is an image taken ‘through’ the viewfinder of a kodak duaflex 620 film camera using a digital camera. / This technique has become popular recently on the flickr photo sharing site in the throughtheviewfinder group. It uses mostly old twinlens cameras available since the 1950’s and 1960’s and creates a square format image with a ‘nostalgic’ and ‘vintage’ feel. Residue from dust and grime in the old camera, and a certain amount of blurriness is what makes these images appear charming. Most TTV images have a black frame around the edges, unless heavily cropped. / I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy taking them. many more are available : feel free to email me / http://www.flickr.com/photos/lolacatz/sets/72057594057947427/ many more are available

Combining old photographic techniques with new. This image like all my ‘through the viewfinder’ images was taken through an old Kodak Duaflex IV or a Yashica 635 with a new digital camera. TtV Concept… All I do is crop the image and enhance colours as I see and remember them in the landscape. The dust specks are very real and I make no attempt to hide them, as is the black frame in fact I have left a piece of grass to hang over the edge for added authenticity. I have abandoned the use of a tripod because it feels less contrived and I enjoy the nonchalant feeling of “it’s meant to be” which can be a hard feeling to achieve with so many technical issues related to photography. So more and more I find myself using the environment to help construct the images. I have always been obsessed with age concepts in my art, it is a recurring theme for me revisited again and again in various forms. The oldness, the square image, the colours, the use of ‘old’ equipment makes me feel at home. I have idealised my childhood and old things have my absolute respect and admiration. Old things can trigger a fleeting memory just like the photograph records memories, precious old possessions can remind me of a particular time and place or person. No amount of gold can replace such richness. There has been a lot of discussion on the net re TtV and some dismiss it as a gimmick to make bad photography look interesting and that could certainly be possible for some but I feel it has its place in the right context. The same argument could be said for many tools used to create visual arts… In writing this, I hope you (the viewer) will gain a brief insight into the madness behind the method :) cheers jules

‘Tis said their forms are tiny, yet / All human ills they can subdue; Or with a wand or amulet / Can win a maiden’s heart for you; And many a blessing know to stew / To make to wedlock bright; Give honour to the dainty crew, / The Pixies are abroad tonight.’ By Samuel Minturn Peck 19th Century
