Carlton SooHoo setup a photo meetup for a Film Noir Photoshoot at the Northern Avenue Bridge in Boston. Three models dressed in 40's movie garb. A great time was had by all.
Strobist: Two Nikon strobes at 1/2 power setup on lightstand to camera left. One on the top of the stand for the face, and one about halfway down the stand for body fill. Triggered with PocketWizard.
I'm really impressed at how well most of this roll of film turned out.
these are both pieces from my design class.
I need a film scanner. Until then, this is all I can show you from the shots taken today at the students' manifestation (weapon used: a full-manual Minolta X-700). home developed.
The film cameras I have at the moment. I recently decided I wanted to explore film having learnt so much shooting digital. Clockwise from top left they are:
1. Yamato Pal Jr.
My Dad's first camera from the early 1960s. A basic manual focus viewfinder camera with no lightmeter. The lens is a basic 45mm f/3.5 3-element Luminor Anastigma. I put a test roll of film through and, while I got a few pictures that I liked, the shutter is very unreliable. Sadly it will be have to be retired now I think.
2. Asahi Pentax S1a
My Dad's classic 1960s SLR with clip-on meter. This is a fantastic camera which makes a lovely sound as the fabric shutter curtain releases. It has three Takumar prime lenses (28mm, 55mm and 135mm). I have finished a couple of rolls and it's now waiting for me to decide on the next experiment.
3. Kodak Retinette 1b
Another 1960's camera, this time picked up cheap on ebay. It is in excellent condition for it's age (they were produced from 1963-66). It even has a neat little screw-on filter to protect the lens. I'll feed it a roll and see what it can do.
4. Olympus Mju-II
My first proper camera and the baby of the group (both in age and size). It's a really great compact which I used inexpertly for a number of years. Now I have a scanner some of the old photos are going up. The battery compartment is held closed by plasters after the catch broke but otherwise it's in working order. I hadn't used it since I bought my first digital camera but I have just finished a roll of slide film and had it cross-processed.
There are few more relaxing and cozy things that these moments in the home surrounded with the family, with good people, after eating, chatting, sharing good moments and recollections. A coffee. A classic movie in the TV. Tranquility. Human heat.
And it is surprising that in the memory of the recent humanity (at least of the one that can allow it them), this contradictory device, which provokes loves and hatreds, which it attracts us and it us repels simultaneously, that is the television, has occupied already an unremovable, immutable place, as if he was one more member of the family. Many of the domestic images that I have (and I believe that great more people also), have of bottom some television’s series, some sticky melody, some indelible image.
That is this, a small honoring to these domestic moments with television …
(And by the way, let's take advantage of this as a small game: does someone know what movie is the one that they were emitting by television in the moment of the photo? ;-) )

*****************
Hay pocas cosas más relajantes y acogedoras que esos momentos en el hogar, rodeado de la familia, de buena gente, después de comer, charlando, compartiendo buenos momentos y recuerdos. Un café. Una pelÃcula clásica en la tele. Tranquilidad. Calor humano.
Y es sorprendente que en la memoria de la humanidad reciente (al menos de la que se lo puede permitir), ese contradictorio aparato, que provoca amores y odios, que nos atrae y nos repele a la vez, que es la televisión, ha ocupado ya un sitio inamovible, inmutable, como si fuera un miembro más de la familia. Muchas de las imágenes hogareñas que tengo (y creo que mucha más gente también), tienen de fondo alguna serie de televisión, alguna melodÃa pegadiza, alguna imagen imborrable.
Que sea este, un pequeño homenaje a esos momentos caseros con televisión…
(Y de paso, aprovechemos esto como un pequeño juego: ¿alguien sabe qué pelÃcula es la que estaban pasando por televisión en el momento de la foto? ;-) )

Strudel!
Shot with the Polaroid Spectra (w/ Close-Up Adapter) on Impossible PZ 680 Color Pro Film.
I actually thought this would not come out. I was using a Pentax M50 F1.7 on a Pentax *ist body.
My meter was asking for more shutter, but it tops out at 1/4000. I shot it anyway, and it turned out nice, albeit out of focus.
This is the first roll of film I have had developed in about 10 years. Can't believe it's been that long.
