I fired up the old 4x5. Breaking out all the film cameras actually.. Need to get used to using real cameras again.
I'll be taking a workshop at the end of summer at Penland on daguerreotype photography and don't want to have pinhole head when I get there.
Santa Barbara 4x5 pinhole camera. 2 minute exposure. Shot on Portra 160NC color film and converted to black and white in Photoshop.
I shot this weird serious of dudes with their shirts off. Not sure what I was going for besides some interesting formal qualities.

My photographic interests are fairly broad, from modern digital all the way back to the antique or alternative processes. That’s why I was very happy to see this short video Escape To Nature about Alex Timmermans and his wet pl...

4X5 with a fog machine and strobes behind the lathboards in a very old house that's under restoration.
Suffering from a whole lot of light leaks, but slowly learning the Linhof‘s correct exposure.

Another still life taken with the MPP. Unfortunately there were a couple of hairs stuck to the negative when it finally emerged from the fixer (I have no way of telling when they arrived there - they wouldn't come off that's for sure) so there are a couple of annoyingly large lines on this picture*

*I did a quick fix using GIMP but they'll stick out like a sore thumb when I get a contact print :-(
This is a picture I took just to test a new set of studio strobes. I will rename it with the most interesting caption that the Flickr community can come up with in 5 words or less. Deadline June 30, 2009

This was a scary moment for my camera equipment. This part of the beach is very flat. I wanted to take a picture of the wave coming in. So I set up my LF camera on a tripod & waited for a benign wave to come in. When the water came in close enough I tripped the shutter (1 sec exposure) & walked away so I wouldn't get wet (water was about 40 degress F). Well, I kept walking backwards & backwards, & backwards... then I kept saying to myself, "gee, the water doesn't seem to be receding". I watched my LF camera on my tripod take on about 3 feet of water & I was about 30 yards away. Eventually, the water receded & I swore not to do that again.
Anyway, I'm reprinting some of my older stuff so I think I need to work on my burning technique. I didn't like how the sky turned out.
