I, Schlem, Sean, and a few others met for lunch & then shooting on the UW campus a few weeks ago. I was shooting with one of Schlem’s 3D printed pinhole cameras. Inspired by a fellow pinhole photographer, I did some selfies while walking, in order to produce a blurry self portrait. And I also…
via Year of Film – UNDEREXPOSED: Alternative Photography http://ift.tt/1RiddgL When I was initially approached for this photoshoot I went in saying that I really didn’t do too many band photos, by the end I really was questioning my thoughts on the matter. Between these film images, and the digitals I was able to capture…everyone walked…
These three rolls of film were shot on two separate occasions: The first being a pinhole photography meetup that I organize and try to coordinate at least once a month. We started with a great breakfast at a restaurant in Arlington, WA, and then we convoyed to the Oso Mudslide site and then to an abandoned…
Lately I find myself pondering eternity. For me eternity is neither nothingness or void. Nor do I find myself abjectly contemplating a Nietzschean eternal recurrence of this life by daily sublimation and surrender to the possibility of endless reincarnation. With the Kantian destruction of ontological arguments for the proof of a god whose existence relies…
Most of these panorama shots were made on Orcas Island, in the San Juan archipelago, this summer. All five rolls were shot using the terraPin Kaiju 6×18 Pinhole Gamera that I designed and 3D printed. Click on any photo to see it larger, in brilliant PINAVISION! Film: ILFORD PAN F Plus ISO 50 Film: FUJICHROME Velvia…
This summer, August sort of blew up on me. We had plans to spend some time in the San Juan Islands seeing family and soaking in the island groove that my wife, Beehive, and I both grew up with. I had a painting project to get done. The month was going to be jam-packed. And then I injured my shoulder.…
I was in Gwaii Haanas twice this past summer looking for and recording archaeological sites in areas that potentially had not been examined carefully enough by previous researchers. As it happens, for most of the areas looked at I was that previous researcher, in the early 1990s. Twenty years ago there were certain kinds of…
I and a few other film enthusiasts went up to the Oso landslide & Fortson Mill in August. I just got the last of the film developed. In March 2014, a big part of a hill slid down and wiped out a number of homes. 43 people died. Its hard to grasp the scale of…
via Year of Film – UNDEREXPOSED: Alternative Photography http://ift.tt/1KtuVZ1 50 ROLLS! As of this entry there are 50 rolls that have been shot and shown to all of you. The journey is almost complete…although much earlier than expected. I’ve already shot next week’s entry into this adventure and I believe I have 12 rolls of…
In June I went to stay with my granddaughter (and her parents I suppose I should say). They had recently moved from near our house to four hours away – a place where they could afford to have some space around them, grow things, and be near some friends. One of the things we did was go…
At Rattlesnake Lake, near North Bend, WA, there was a logging town called Moncton. It got flooded out in 1915 when a nearby reservoir was built. The groundwater pushed through the rock, and flooded the town. There were about 200 people living there. I’d heard about the remains of this town years ago, but the…
