I went home again just before Father’s Day, to convene with said father and solve my 4×5 issues once and for all – in other words, make it to where I wouldn’t feel quite so frustrated. I was armed with my own loupe, plenty of Tri-X, and his idea that DK-50 was the answer, and…
Still learning here. I stepped out of my comfort zone and did some flash shots and some lowlight stuff at a buddy’s show and another’s band practice. I’m not too happy with the final result but I learned from it and that’s worth something i guess. I’m leaving town in a few days and I’ll…
A few weekends ago I went to Olympia, Washington for a pinhole meetup with some other pinhole enthusiasts. I was shooting with a Vermeer anamorphic pinhole camera and a Zero Image 4×5 pinhole with a 23Graphic back, which takes 120 film. We went to the state capitol building, and a nearby war memorial. It was…
via Year of Film – UNDEREXPOSED: Alternative Photography http://ift.tt/1FFdZwd I like free things. I’m not sure if I know anyone who doesn’t. Especially when they are free things that have some sort of artistic merit. When I happened across a tweet from The High Museum of Art here in Atlanta that admission would be free…
This roll is from quite a while ago, but such is the case when clearing a backlog. These were mostly shot in Calvert County with my friend Justin on Ektar with my SQAi and an 80mm PS lens. No post other than basic cropping and inversion with ColorPerfect.
Saturday night was the afterparty for Honkfest in Seattle, held in the street in front of Equinox Studios. Honkfest bands from all over come to Seattle once a year and play in in the streets in several locations over the weekend. I don’t remember all the band names, besides Chaotic Noise Marching Corps, who are…
Another week (or two) and I see that I once again have a lot to be thankful for. If this project has done nothing else, it has regularly reminded me of the really nice people I am fortunate to have in my life. In this post, there is: a picnic with Shana and Brent, and…
I picked up a NikonAF L35 at the thrift store for $13 recently. The f/2.8 lens intrigued me. (article about it here) Lesson learned: it doesn’t autofocus at night much at all. What may give you a nice shallow DOF in the daytime will probably result in bad focus at night. I have yet to…
For Week 11, I took a trip out to the Arboretum again with Teresa. Last time we only had about 45 minutes until they closed, so we got there much earlier this time so that we would have some time to explore. These are mostly macro shots, as the landscapes I took weren’t anything to…
Last weekend I helped out with the Power Tool Drag Races put on by HazardFactory. The halftime show was Chaotic Noise Marching Corps. The power tool races are a part of the annual Georgetown (Seattle) carnival, which has a whole lot of stuff like art, bands, food, galleries, pop-up tents with vendors, activities for kids,…
via Year of Film – UNDEREXPOSED: Alternative Photography http://ift.tt/1JX8b9a Roll Count? 28! 28 rolls have been shot as of this update! Over half way through the goal of 52 rolls! This roll was a planned backup in case the 2 boxes of impossible film just didn’t turn out. As you can probably guess since you have…
Its Week 25 for me and this is another roll put through Canon Elan 7N. I chose this camera because I trust it to make excellent exposures and I was testing my first roll of Ektar 100 which I hear is fussy when it comes to exposure. I shot it at box speed with a…
