Leslie and I and Leslie's parents went to a restaurant in Plaza Frontenac to celebrate her birthday. Frontenac is the fancy mall. Like crazy fancy. Like even the back stairwell from the underground parking structure is nicely carpeted. It's insane.
This store window had like five of these classy old-school large format press cameras in its display. I was a little sad that the cameras were just sitting there, not being used to take awesome photos. Hopefully the mannequins come to life at night like Kim Cattrall and take awesome pictures of each other with those.

Here is the setup for the Pineapple shot.
I edited out the background so the house doesn't look a mess. Not that the house was a mess, just this corner of my son's room is a little chaotic.
During the final exposure the camera was wrapped in a darkcloth to protect it from stray light, and the tri-pod was wrapped with a darkcloth with the white side out to introduce yet another place for light to bounce from.

This afternoon saw some long overdue work on the first floor of Assembly Square, the Lego set we got last Christmas(!)
One of the buildings has a marvellous photographer's studio in, with this fabulous large format camera.
I really need some better light in the dining room though!
New York City Easter Parade 2018
The NYC Easter Parade is a great opportunity to do portraits of fabulously dressed people in the street.
Earlier today, sporting a handheld 1930's Graflex RB large format camera and a bunch of film holders I enjoyed myself and made some new friends...
Here's some of the results, just out of the darkroom….
Happy Easter to all !!
My new-to-me camera with an adapter that allows me to put my Speed Graphic lenses on it. Photo taken with my shitty iPhone since my 30D has bit the dust.
This camera is a 4x5 monorail with tilt, rise and fall controls for front and rear standards. It has limited side-to-side movements and you can't rotate the standards. Otherwise, a lot more capable (though less portable) than my Graflex Speed Graphic. Looks to be in good shape but I won't know until I shoot a sheet with it.
This is the camera I had to lug around on location for one of my projects. It came in a suitcase and I had to assemble it on site. The film was 5 x 4 transparency loaded in dark slides. I had to huddle under a dark cloth to focus the image on the glass screen at the back using a loupe.
Great camera with amazing results but not exactly portable!
These are fantastic cameras, I used one to take most of the 1,000 or so pictures in my two-volume set of Books, GUNMAKERS OF ILLINOIS, 1683-1900. That 4" X 5" negative allows for huge enlargements, with no loss of detail. The down side? Very expensive to feed, And difficult to find anyone to process the film, even twenty years ago.

A view through the ground glass, with the help of some powerful flash to illuminate the subject. The reading on the light meter says it all (f/18 ISO 100)
I took two test photos of the same upside down tree one at 7 seconds and the other at 14. I cant tell that much of a difference between the two. I stood back about 8 feet and used a hand me down tripod from Tim aka speedflickr. Plus I used a 2 inch rise for the special affect in the trees. Thanks Howard for your help and advice for this wonderful handmade camera.

True friends are very few and far between. In World where everyone is so wrapped up in themselves it's nice to know that after 25 years I can pick up the phone a call someone who truly cares. I coulden't ask for a better friend than Lee.

Hughenden Manor
Home of the British Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli, who lived here from 1848 to 1881
The Ice House
In 1941, Hughenden Manor was requisitioned by the Air Ministry for top-secret work. It was code-named "Hillside".
Today the most popular tour at Hughenden Manor is of the Ice House – the actual location where the wartime map-makers worked.
Hughenden map makers produced maps for targets like Berlin, Hamburg and Dresden, and also for strategic missions like the Dam-Busters raid, the rocket factories at Peenemunde and the Eagle's Nest – Hitler's mountain retreat.
Because of these important activities Hughenden Manor, or "Hillside", was at the top of Hitler's hit list.
It was not until 2005 that National Trust researchers discovered details about the Ice House's actual use.
Civilian artists, architects and draughtsmen, male and female, had been recruited from all over the country and were brought to Hughenden Manor, or Hillside, to produce up-to-date bombing maps. It was here in the Ice House that the photographic element of that work took place.
