CW is me — Louis-Martin Ouellet, from Montréal.

I came to photography the slow way. I learned to shoot on film in my twenties, stepped away when digital arrived, and came back recently with retirement on the horizon and a Fujifilm X100vi in my pocket.

I have completed the full Dharma Art curriculum and am recognized as an assistant teacher by Shambhala International. That training is the quiet background to how I approach photography.

Seven Recipes for Slow Light is the series I always wanted to write : nine articles about the recipes I built for my Fujifilm X100vi, the cameras and films that inspired them and what slow photography means to me. The recipes work on most recent Fujifilm cameras with the same film simulations available. The series is complete. CW signs every recipe.

The blog is the natural continuation : photographs made with these recipes, reflections along the way and travel journals. I'll occasionally experiment with new recipes here, and I'm open to testing ones readers want to submit, sharing my observations and, where it seems useful, suggestions for adjustments.

I read every comment and I reply. Feel free to write.
