Thanks Jonathan. I appreciate that. I enjoyed looking through your stuff on flickr. You are obviously open to seeing the extraordinary in the everyday, and in my opinion, that's half the battle right there. I like the swing remnants especially, but also thought the bobby pins photo was inspired; presented so simply like that, they become loaded with significance, shorthand for a lot of different memories that will be brought by the viewer. Cheers, Austin

Thanks for the kind words. Your work is really something special. Keep it up!

For family stuff I either do plain straight up candids or simply posed LF stuff. I've stayed away from the planned and conceptual types of things and generally think poorly of that. But rules of style are meant to be broken. I've got plenty of boring canoe photos so I was trying new things. It was dusk and I knew I could get a wide aperture with the rolleiflex and I knew how that would render. I asked my older daughter traveling alongside in the kayak to get into where she'd be in the upper right of the frame. Then I asked my younger daughter to point and talk about something I don't remember what it was, maybe another boat, maybe where we started. It all lined up, and when my older daughter's paddle was in the right spot, I took the photo with my wife's paddle bisecting that angle. So it has an intentional composition that is more complex than most of my photos from a canoe, but the story/action sort of disguises the composition.

Jason, that's an excellent photo and I admire the way you set up the scene given the circumstances. And also the fact that it is technically perfect, really well done!

Tuco, that's the combo I use for travel photography. Fast film, fine grain, good tonality.... Both of your shots are very good, but the first one in particular is terrific!

21-Aug-2015, 20:02

I like Tuco's 2nd shot. Everything from bright sun to real shadows captured well with good tones. It's a nice film for those that put in effort to get the most out of it, and it's affordable for 120 format.

Thanks. I shoot TMY so much out of necessity. It is one of the thickest films I've used and will lay flat on my crappy negative carrier. I use to use a glass one and it could handle thin and curly film. But I can't use it anymore. Too many years of cleaning it and now the scratches show through. Even 100ACR gives me trouble. So I've learned to shoot 400TMY at EI 50, 100, 400 and 800.

Sorry for the flood of pictures but here are some shots from a hike last weekend with the GSW690 loaded with some 400TMY. The air was really thick with haze from the raging fires in the central part of the state.

Stunning shots Tuco. I bought a GW690 earlier this year, love the quality and negative size but hated the bulk of the beast hanging around my neck. It's bigger and heavier than my OM-1 with power winder, less versatile. I sold it and picked up the Zeiss Nettar 6x6 folder, I prefer it for a walking around camera, folds small enough to fit in my pocket and I love square negatives. If I want bigger negs, I pack my 4x5.

Thanks. I use a long neck strap and wear the camera at my side hip like wearing a travel bag. I found it a piece of cake to carry because there is no load on the neck. Its the shoulder that carries the weight and that camera is nothing. I also sewed up a protective camera case like the leather kind film cameras use to have. I carried it all day no problem. Pulled it out to use it and then stowed it away real fast.

Thanks Roger. I'm so glad it was saved. I have fond memories of this place from way back (I grew up in Alameda). And yes, I took my kids in and we all stood in the dark and watched the surfers surf the waves on the curved table and also saw the fog roll in. It was as magical as ever.

Wonderful, wonderful work Austin. I'm especially fond of the "Camp Reynolds" photograph. Even with the modern picnic tables and the Golden Gate in the background, this really has a feel of an image from the works of Timothy O'Sullivan or William Henry Jackson.

Thanks Jeff! I love Angel Island. I've been going there since I was a kid, so it was especially rewarding to be able to finally take my own kids there (we were in California for a wedding). It's funny about the picnic tables. When I was working on this picture on the computer, my daughter/critic suggested that I clone them out! I indignantly replied that to clone out anything other than dust spots would be cheating. And besides, the picnic tables sort of invite the viewer to come "into" the picture. I'm not sure if she bought that theory, but I'm sticking with it. :-) Thank again.

Yes, that is a good picture Austin. I've shot Camp Reynolds several times in the past with 6x7 and 4x5 and seeing your image has me thinking about hauling the 8x10 over for a salt print which I'm always on the lookout for.

Thanks Thomas. I'd love to go back with more time someday as well. That long row of whitewashed houses at Camp Reynolds has potential. I like them from the backside as well, especially in the afternoon-some interesting geometry going on there. Just don't lose track of time and miss the ferry back! :-)

Love it! Really cool image.
Thanks Adam! I've always wanted to explore there more (it's an old Navy base) but unfortunately I always get kicked out. The perplexing thing is that the whole place is now open to the public, who are free to stroll around and make pictures with their phones to the heart's content, but the minute you break out a tripod, security descends to tell you you can't do that. Argh.

Scott, you've got me waiting anxiously for each new portrait in your "Originals" series. Each image is wonderful and seems to capture the spirit of the individual. Very well done sir. I generally associate low/no grain with Acros; however, I love the "look" of grain in this image. Not quite pronounced as in your image of Sarah, but wonderfully there nonetheless. Did you push the Acros or does XTOL help achieve this "look"?

I took some shots of my girlfriend's nephew Saturday for the family, who is a real rambunctious 4-year-old. Getting him to sit still and not act silly is a feat. Most of the frames were slightly blurry or out of focus a bit, but I got one good frame - however, his posing was a bit off. So I blended another frame with this to get his pose better, and voilà, perfect. I guess I can't make a darkroom print of it though, oh well.

In your place I would think for 3 nights in how to expose the neon sign without the collateral underexposed shadows and sky, BUT what I saw is this: you just took that as it came and made part of the composition, opposing the black diagonal of the shadows with the diagonal of the sign, sort of crossing paths in 3D.

Like it,

Nice shot that of Mt. Adams. I don't understand why did you choose the vertical format for this one, as it have a ton of empty foreground with the focal of the lens you used.
But even with this remark, I find the perspective, the tones and the filter you (seems to have) used just top notch,

Cheers,

Renato

In your place I would think for 3 nights in how to expose the neon sign without the collateral underexposed shadows and sky, BUT what I saw is this: you just took that as it came and made part of the composition, opposing the black diagonal of the shadows with the diagonal of the sign, sort of crossing paths in 3D.

Nice shot that of Mt. Adams. I don't understand why did you choose the vertical format for this one, as it have a ton of empty foreground with the focal of the lens you used.

Renato, Hi. Thanks again for your kind words. As for the above remarks, once I decide that I want to make a picture of something, the next thing that happens is that it becomes, in my mind, a collection of two-dimensional shapes. At that point I just organize everything into something that feels balanced. To my eyes, the white shape of the snow balances out and echoes the shape of the dark rock and sky areas above. I see the whole picture as a kind of yin/yang shape. I know others would choose differently, but I can't help myself-I just do what feels right for me.

Austin,

I see exactly what you meant now. And that works.
Just one thing that happen with my brain is: if you have 2 planes, one near white and other near black the same size, side by side, I see the near white one seems bigger then the other, the darker.
Another sort of movement that I can see - or the impression I have - the white surface comes toward me - out from the canvas in my direction, and the darker plane going opposite. But it can be just my impression, which is a subjective point of view BTW,

Cheers,

Renato

Try hanging a picture frame without a level near a sloping roof or stairs.

Amazing how far off you will place 'level' despite being able to easily spot out of level pictures in a normal square space.

I have noticed those sorts of effects too Renato, and others. They are very interesting to me. Just today I was working on a picture that looks crooked no matter what I do. It has something to do with a diagonal line that runs across the frame. Actually, it looks like the picture it is pinching in on one side, though of course it is perfectly rectangular. Strange stuff.

This is not animated (click on it):

I have a similar situation with a particular photo (a symmetric view straight down the vertical axis of a 40 story staircase) - rectangular composition with plenty of square right angles which can be easily measured to be correct, and can easily be lined up to print it squared up. However because of the nature of receeding diagonals within the composition (railings) it inevitably looks not only slightly crooked, but appears to be an imperfect rectangle, with one of the corners of the paper being pulled/stretched. I don't even print it any more because for me this optical illusion causes the picture to miss. Too bad since it was really difficult to set up and I had to obtain permission from the building etc. Another one of those cases - in my mind's eye it was going to be great, but then...

austin granger

9-Oct-2015, 11:02

Yes, I've given up on a few because of that sort of thing too. One time I had a perfectly square picture with a lot of long vertical lines that kept getting kicked out of a flickr square-themed group for not being square. "I know it doesn't look square, but I'm telling you, it's perfectly square. Measure it!" :)

Is this with your Fuji GF670? I'm just guessing but maybe their criteria was square images from a square camera and thought the camera didn't shoot square.

I cannot see the negative, all I can see is what my monitor shows. This is a summary of my NEC monitor calibration with NEC Spyder.

I see no detail in the dark column to the left, but good detail in the gown and décolletage and indeed all highlights, I think, except the actual bulbs.

I see. Evaluating a second generation image and especially after my steep contrast curve adjustment for taste does not reflect what the actual negative looks like, i'd think. But I dunno. And my scanner doesn't reach as far into the blacks as a high-end scanner would. It just kind of truncates some areas to black real fast but the detail is there on the negative typically. And isn't that usually the problem... getting all that is on the negative to the new medium be in a print or a scan?

For reference The front outside window panel was placed 3 stops below the middle gray exposure. For me that usually means just barely visible. But I had some latitude with that tone in the image editor to move it up in value a little if I wanted to meaning I exposed for it with some to spare. And the high values in the scene were ~8+ stops above the middle gray exposure.

I will try the suggested method of "enlarging" my image on this forum140895

I am not seeing the "instructions" on the "how to enlarge one's image"

This image taken with a Fuji 6x7 was on I-70 in the vicinity of Capital Reef, Utah---several years later, the sign was removed---I have forgotten the reason for its removal--perhaps someone has the answer.
Raymond

I failed to inform the readership about the cross. Someone, perhaps fellow troopers, put up the sign along 1-70 in honor of a Utah State Patrol Trooper who died in the line of duty.

13-Oct-2015, 00:44

This is the story (http://www.utahtrooper.com/roadside-memorials/) of the crosses. They were removed at one time but have been replaced. Their removal (if I remember correctly) was the result of some folks taking issue with what they saw as religious symbols (the crosses, obviously) being displayed on public property.

So we had some action here this morning...there was a "rally" against Muslims (specifically refugees). Only a few people showed up - but much larger was a protest against this rally from many of the university students and faculty, among others. The best part of this whole thing was the organizer hilariously misspelled Muslim as "Muslin" on all the signs for the rally, which incited mass social media hysterics of "Save the Cotton" and such.

No politics here, I just shot photos......

I was at a car show and it was getting gray and cold, but there were some bicycles outside which are normally displayed inside. Gray weather is, for me, God's softbox. I could see the shapes simply and without much distraction. I knew how my camera would render the focus at that distance and detail and aperture, so I shot away. I got to the end of the roll and took it out of the camera. Damn, it was color film and I thought I was shooting B&W. I put a roll of tmy2 in and shot four frames. Here are two.

I'm new here and haven't even posted in the Introductions forum yet. I've been looking through the different forums, going back through time. I really enjoy your photographs, Austin. They definitely connect, at least they do with me.
I notice you never get into technical details, but are you shooting most of these b&w medium format images with your Yashicamat? Not that it matters a whole lot, because you have definitely a signature and it would be the same with any camera.
Thanks for the body of work over the years!

austin granger

13-Nov-2015, 09:55

Trent,

Thank you for your very kind words. Sometimes I wonder how much I'm really getting across with my pictures, so the fact that you said they connect with you is heartening.

As far as technical stuff goes, yeah, I generally don't talk about it too much. It's not because I want to be secretive or anything, it's just that I think it can put the emphasis in the wrong place. I mean to say, while equipment obviously does effect the way our pictures look, as far as the factors that make a picture "good" or not, I would say that stuff's not even in the top ten. Plus honestly, if you're looking to compare this lens or that lens, or this film or that film, I don't think a whole lot can be gleaned from a computer screen. Anyway though, that's the end of my rant. I'm an open book. Generally speaking, for the last few years, I've been using a Fuji GF670, with either FP4 125 or Tri-X 400. I play around with a Noblex occasionally too. I kind of go back and forth between medium format and large format and I haven't hauled out the big camera much lately, but I've been feeling the pull so who knows? I think it's good to try and stay flexible.

Thanks again, and welcome to the forum.

Best Regards, Austin

My favorite thing about an Austin Granger photo is that it always looks like an Austin Granger photo. (and I happen to really like that look)

Randy

13-Nov-2015, 17:33

Trent, I bet if you look through the picture sharing threads, going back many, many pages, you will soon notice that you can recognize Austins images before you look to see who posted them. I haven't visited this thread in at least a month, and as I was scrolling down this page just now and got to the green houses and the chair / caution cone image, I knew they were Austins before I looked left. I don't think he could hide if he wanted to.
I agree with Peter.

TrentM

13-Nov-2015, 18:01

Randy and Peter,
Absolutely! I can see it is Austin in a second. That's why I kind of downplayed the equipment/gear thing. Give him a Hasselblad or a Yashicamat, and you get those intriguing photos that are signature.
Also, Austin, your tones and graphic elements are beautiful. Beautiful control over the B&W process. Man, you were born with The Gift.

Also an Austin fan, have to say your most recent on this page (simply titled "Portland") is probably my favorite so far. Beautifully formal, delightfully absurd, a true slice of life and yet seeming as though it must have been put there just for the purpose of making this image!

Messrs. Granger's images have been gnawing away at me for several years. His way of seeing through a lens absolutely speaks to something inside me. Even worse, the particular format Austin employs doesn't seem to make any difference in the way he communicates his vision. It is impossible for me to pick a single favorite image from Austin's expansive portfolio; however, here are three that are very special in my humble opinion.

When I checked this thread tonight I was amazed (and honestly, a little embarrassed) to see the above comments. You guys are very kind, and no doubt give me too much credit. But I do want to thank you, and also say that I'm going to file away your words so that they might shore me up the next time I falter in my photography (which will probably be tomorrow-I'm constantly faltering). Seriously, thank you.

Hi everyone, fairly new to this forum and the first time I've flicked through this thread... WOW.... some absolutely wonderful images.

I have shot MF for about 5 years and recently got a large format camera which comes out occasionally but the cost means that my trusty Rolleiflex, Mamiya C330f and my Ross Ensign 820 still get lots of use. Here's one from each camera.

This a local folly called Mow Cop, Ross Ensign 820 on Fuji Acros 100, devved in Ilford LC39.

I haven't seen that building since 1966 when I said goodbye to it and the home of KIWI polish. At that time I stood in front of it, gazed deeply and told myself I would never see it again. A habit I started that day.

Imagine my surprise this morning!

Thanks for the memory.

Simply beautiful !!

I haven't seen that building since 1966 when I said goodbye to it and the home of KIWI polish. At that time I stood in front of it, gazed deeply and told myself I would never see it again. A habit I started that day.

Imagine my surprise this morning!

Thanks for the memory.

Nice image.
Thank you both!

Lovely shot of Wastwater and lucky with the weather too - you don't often get Great Gable to clearly

That's got some interesting angle to it, Austin. I always enjoy your perspective on the Northwest. Of course, it's perfectly obviously that the building wasn't here
in California, or else there would be a day old real estate sign on it, "Bargain Fixer Upper, One Million Dollars", with a "Sold" stapled over that.

Thanks Drew. We left California for Oregon in 2006. It sometimes still makes me a little sad, as I loved it there, and also because I was a forth-generation Californian, but in any case, we couldn't afford to go back now even if we wanted to. Recently I was in Santa Cruz and I walked past the tiny, humble beach shack (more of a hut really) I lived in while going to school there. It was for sale for half a million dollars.

Noblex at work, Austin? Outstanding swooping lines here along with your usual fabulously spare imagery.

Thanks Peter. Yes, it's from the Noblex. Eastern Washington's wide open landscapes seemed well suited to it. Unfortunately, the camera has developed a banding problem with slow shutter speeds. My solution is to stack short exposures on top of each other. The picture above is sixteen (!) exposures. According to the mighty internet, that's a sexdecuple exposure!:-)

chrism, nice shots - I'm jealous of the SWC.

Here's a couple of shots from a local Christmas Parade.

A few more from me. This time taken in Chester, originally a Roman town on the border of England and Wales. If the Roman invasion of Scotland had gone to plan Chester would have probably been the capital of England, there are an almost complete set of encircling walls and the remains of a once impressive amphitheatre.
Taken on a Voigtlander Baby Bessa from 1938 and Fomapan 100 film.

Two negatives from Maui in October...trying to think warm thoughts here in the NW!

Rolleicord. Out-of-date Tri-X. Developed in HC-110. These negs were re-photographed on a light table, then inverted in PhotoShop. Destined to be platinum/palladium prints.
