I got a flyer from my old school DCAD earlier this week telling me about their student show which got me thinking about some of my older film work. So I flipped through the old portfolios and found a few that I could scan and load up.
This shot was part of a final project centered around textures & patterns. I think I used my 85mm f/1.4 on my N80 for this shot.
After scanning it last night I made adjustments to contrast and sharpened it up a bit.

film - sooc
it's agonizing, terrifying and undeniable yet somehow there is some intimacy to it - as though the moon and the stars knew all the secrets
as though the constellations were all made to shatter
as though you were born from the winds of the deep red sea
as though you and i were created to break
to burst into a million pieces that live on to shine
just as different particles
of which the moon and the stars know; will make up a whole
NGC 5907 is one of the most impressive edge-on spiral galaxies in the night sky. It is a marvel in my 18-inch Dobsonian under a dark sky but proved to be a real challenge during this drawing made with a 110mm Refractor from the semi-dark sky at Alpha Ridge Park.
This galaxy goes by a couple common names all of which tries to capture its needle-like appearance. Take your pick – Splinter Galaxy, Knife-edge Galaxy or Cat Scratch Galaxy – they all reflect on the visual presence of the galaxy in the eyepiece.
In the small refractor only the bright northeastern edge of the galaxy’s core could be seen at a magnification of 59x (the power used for the drawing circle). It took some additional effort at a higher magnification of 171x to tease out the needle-like extensions on either side of the brighter core. Therefore, the drawing represents the field of view at 58x, but the galaxy’s details at 171x.
