Since i set up the darkroom to print for my recent exhibit, I thought I would dive into printing some of my Shorelines series.
Here is an example of split grade printing. You use two filters, one to control highlights and one to control shadow detail.
Making a test print helps you choose what exposure you could use for each filter.
In this can I was printing on Ilford Multigrade IV RC De Luxe Glossy. As it was a very bright day, I decided to choose the highlight & contrast that best matched the scene. The grid above shows that I decided to use a 3 second exposure with the 00 filter for highlight detail & I went with a 15 second exposure for shadow detail. The square I noted above show both exposures and the result.
I could have gone for a much different look, for example a 6 second exposure with the 00 filter would have produced a result where the highlights were more subdued.
You can see that using the split grade printing method really gives you some flexibility in contrast control and creativity over the image.It's all a matter of preference and what you want the scene to look like.
Been printing collage papers with the help of a sheet of acetate, acrylics and some spray inks. It was fun! Blogged: caatjesartsystuff.blogspot.nl/2013/08/printing-up-storm.html
Proving once again that printing yellow on black is not a good idea. Compare the stripes on the actual minifig to the one on the instructions, and the deep yellow of the arms and head.
Inside the Gutenberg museum, we witnessed a short demonstration (in German unfortunately) about the advent of moveable type printing.
An old machine, probably about 70 or 80 years old or more and used for printing propaganda leaflets and single page newspapers. Possibly a wartime memorial?
Will be busy printing and framing in nice large, matted formats and frames and museum glass! Five of these photos will be printed on 40" x 60" floating wall mounted metal sheets! I think I know which--will share photos of the photos hanging on the walls!
And I am mounting some on plexiglass/acryllic--front mounting them! Some I am printing on lossy fuji-crystal archival paper too, and then front mounting 40"x60" versions to plexiglass--will send photos!
The secret to HDR photography is that you want people to say, "Woe dude--that's unreal!" And not, "Dude--that's not real!" "Unreal" is the word they use when they're trying to figure out the photo--what makes it cool--is it a photo? Is it painted? How'd it come to be--how'd you bend the light that way? "That's not real," is what they say if you have the saturation/HDR/ etc. turned up too high. :)
Some (almost) final edits for my Los Angeles Gallery Show! Printing them on metallic paper at 13" x 19" and mounting and framing them on a 4mm 18x24 white mat and 2" dark wood frame. Also printing some 40" x 70" whihc is over three feet by five feet! Wish you all could come (and hang out with the goddesses)!
Let me know your favs.!

This is by far my most viewed photo on Flickr, and almost all of them come from people who have typed "old printing press" in a search engine. I know it has been used on blogs and slide shows a few times, but not nearly often enough to justify the popularity. I find it fascinating that in this age of digital publishing, my most popular photo is one of ancient publishing technology, but I'm getting more and more curious about why so many people look for it. Sadly, I lost the original long ago, or I would have uploaded a bigger version.
Recently I had the opportunity to use some 3D printers, and I decided to use them to make the Nuva Cube. The cube is made of PLS, has a length/width/height of 2 inches, and is composed of four 1 7/8" x 1/8" x 2" and two 2" x 1/8" x 2" faces each glued onto one of the sides of a 1 3/4" cube (rather, that's the dimensions of the computer model… as you can tell, the technology is still pretty finicky, and the measurements don't always come out right). I designed it in Tinkercad and glued all the pieces save one together, but the actual printing was done by someone who actually knew what he was doing. :P (The piece I didn't glue was the one on the bottom of Lewa's face since I wasn't there when it finished printing and it was the last piece not yet glued on.) I also have to give credit to fearmaker782 of deviantArt as I frequently referred back to his own System Nuva Cube during the design process since each face is set up on a clear 8 x 8 grid.
Bothe shot on Kodak. 120 Portra 160ASA. NC 400 B&W
Printed with Epsom sx235 on Polaroid canvas paper.
I'am hoping to set up a dark room in the new year with help from my mate Dan so we can do some proper printing.
My write up on photographing the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas here
On the weekend of November 20-21, 2010, I was invited to photograph the new Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas prior to their opening December 15, 2010 in Las Vegas NV.
This set of images represents my efforts that weekend to showcase this newest resort property opening up on the Las Vegas Strip. Thanks to David Scherer from The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas for showing me around, to Miiko Mentz at Katalyst Films for helping to arrange the shoot, and to my wife for modeling for me.

Fuji GW 690 III / Fujinon 90mm f3.5 / Kodak Portra 160
新宿にて撮影。先週、http://timdesuyo.comのティムさんとカメラ交換のフォトウォークにいってきました。彼のFuji GW 690 IIIを使わせていただきましたが、とても使い勝手の良いカメラでした。ネガが大きい分、中判のフィルムもあっという間になくなってしまいますが…。
Taken around Shinjuku.
Timothy Buerger from timdesuyo.com kindly let me try out his Fuji GW 690 III, and here is one of the results. The 6x9 negatives are incredibly full of details, but with only 8 shots to a 120 roll you have to make every shot count…
