Urban Americana

There's just something about being in rural America that boisterously screams out to the bygone era of rangefinder cameras, manual focusing and unsaturated 35mm film. A world far outside the city lights where time seems to crawl, and at times, stop. A vintage look so special, so unique, you can't help but quietly take a seat at its knee while the picture weaves a tale of days gone by. So, considering I rarely ever get to step out onto this side of the US, I decided to take advantage. Normally, I'd be happy with just a few snapshots of classic Americana, but as luck would have it, I had two friends who happily volunteered themselves to pose for some of my shots, as well as force me to take positions on the other end of my camera! So, enjoy.
