Old School: George Ferris


For almost 20 years, from the early 1940s to late in the 1950s, Film Noir (or "black film") swept Hollywood.  Film Noir is associated with low-key black and white filming that creates an atmosphere of dark and mysterious which results in loads of cinematic drama.  Interestingly, Film Noir is not technically a genre, it's more a description of the look and mood of the film.  From FilmSite.org:
"..early noir film-makers didn't even use the film designation (as they would the labels 'western' or 'musical'), and were not conscious that their films would be labeled noirs."
My image is inspired by The Big Sleep (1946) where Humphrey Bogart plays a private detective who gets entangled in a rich family's complex crime.

MrNicholsPhotography : Fusion


There are times when a person thinks of himself as different people. It is true though, there are actually three types of self's within ourselves. No one really knows it but its there. Sometimes you feel like doing something that you normally would not do, and other times you feel scared and not wanted, when deep down you know that you are. We will always struggle with ourselves and never truly understand what it is that makes us what we are.
