I’ve been doing lot’s of film and exposure testing these past two weeks in preparation for a photography workshop and Pinhole Day, not much to report. So I’m posting a final image of my Garden, which managed to survive the early threats of bad weather. it is snowing now, but my Tulips and Daffodils are…
Week 19: I started with a wander at the further end of Queen Street East in the Beach. Camera and film used was my Hasselblad 503CXi and Kodak Portra 400 film. Week 20: This week I was further west and north into Cabbagetown and so much caught my eye. Camera and film used was my Pentax 645N and Kodak…
I was tired and cranky and left my desk at about 6:30 pm. Unexpectedly I stumbled upon John Lincourt and Suresh Dagubatti in the parking lot. My office lot has become a Wednesday night assemblage of late for photographers from the Rhode Island Photographer’s FB page. My Rolleiflex was cross bodied and willing so my…
A few years ago I converted an old Nikon mirrorless digital SLR to shoot Infrared spectrum and really liked the results. So I recently purchased a box of 4×5 sized Rollei Infrared 400 Black and White Negative Film and loaded it in the 4×5 camera. I shot with a B+W brand dark red filter 092,…
I met up with a few friends to shoot an abandoned silt processor, and the ruins of Franklin, Washington, a former mining town. I was shooting with an Olympus StylusEpic zoom 80, and one of Todd’s 6×6 pinhole cameras. The Stylus does indeed have a wonderful sharp lens. I never use the zoom feature, and…
Test shooting another roll of Fuji Acros Neopan film in my Mamiya 6. Focused on an old homestead in Boulder Colorado open space land near the Stazio Ball Field. Finished off the roll wandering around Boulder county. Made one shot of the Table Mountain Test Facility, and two more of an abandoned tennis court. All images…
I dont want to make this to long a story and bore you, but I’ve been wanting a Hasselblad 500 c/m for a long time and that time has come and I am one HAPPY camper!! Yes I have a sickness…oh well, but I had said to myself its time to start focusing more on…
Nara; what an experience. The colours, the soft rolling landscape, the woody forests, and ever so daring deer. A day spent there is nay a day wasted, but get used to the ever present crowds; running at a slow hustle and bustle suited perfectly to the non business type of field trips. Japan runs on…
Another Adventure….This time with Ilford SFX 200. I’d tried some of this film last year. Finally figuring out that it worked better for me to use an IR 695 filter, rather than a dark red filter. The real IR filter allows the fuzzy infrared effects to come through. So the images taken with the dark…
On April 18 I joined John Linton and Suresh Dagubatti for a photo walk along the paths I’ve carved so often in Providence. I have “known” John for a long time but only from Facebook connections and met Suresh for the first time. The weather was a bit gnarly with a fine drizzle and…
This is another test roll of Fuji Acros Neopan film in my Mamiya 6. Decided to focus on architecture around downtown Denver. Finishing off the role making some nighttime shots of research park building in Boulder Colorado. The Fuji Acros Neopan has amazing reciprocity characterists making it a preferred film for long exposures. All images…
Without the Pentax 67 which I had thought would be the centerpiece of my medium format year I’ve been forced to get better acquainted with the little Isolette, as well as the plastic ladies. It’s actually been good for me to loosen up. The Isolette, as I’ve mentioned, has some pretty imprecise shutter speed settings…
