They're definitely abstracts. For me they're all about time and exploring we experience it.

I'll risk the wrath by saying: Sorry, I don't want to share the process yet. Once I've...

Hi everyone,



A selection of my photographs from a new series will be up at Positive Focus Gallery. The work is up under the title "shift, space, span." The Gallery is at 111 Front Street, 2nd...

I like Type 52 which is ISO 400. It requires coating after development if you want it to last, though; the coater is supplied with the film. I like the prints enough to sometimes keep them as a final...

For the Type 55, you can use Kodak Hypo Clear or Heico Permawash, also. It's easier than mixing up your own sodium sulfite solution.

i'd rather get my negs in glassine wet than those in plastic. salvaging would be easier... however keeping everything dry in the first place is a good plan.

i keep all my negs in glassine...

I'll second the Agfa rec. I love Agfa Classic in both the glossy and semi gloss finishes. I've used this paper for a variety of projects, most recently a series of derelict buildings around where I...

As part of Emerging Artists International's Citywide Open Studios, I will be
opening my studio to the public on the weekend of October 22nd and 23rd. You
are invited to visit and preview a series...

I just pulled out some prints I'd done on Bergger paper several years ago. The paper is base is not bright white, but I would certainly not call it grey, either. It is about the same...

Yes! Will, you're absolutely right. The Docksider is the place I'd been thinking of. I was there just a couple weeks ago. Fantastic. Thanks for helping out with the name.

Another thought: out past...

Stefano--



There are all sorts of places between Portland and Bar Harbor (or Bangor) that are photographically interesting.



As Ed noted, Acadia National Park is next to Bar Harbor on...

how about a tripod with a reverible center column? i have a manfrotto that has splayable legs as well as a reversible center column. if i can't get low enough with the splayed legs because of the...

I've been sending my submissions with an attached cd with a pdf just as you describe. My presentation has been an electronic brochure within a smaller printed brochure. This way the recipient can...

Why not use a shift lens on your Pentax 67? Would that get you where you want to go? It's not like having a view camera, but it may do the trick. Hartblei has a shift lens that works on a variety of...

i have a 127 ektar in a supermatic shutter. it needs a hole in the lens board that is just bigger than a copal 0 opening. i bought a lens board with a copal 0 opening and then sanded (and cleaned...

late on this one, but still a daily reader.

Hi Kirk, I'll bite too.



As a young artist, I'd love that Eastman of yours, though I don't need it by any stretch. I can think of several other equally deserving young artists and college...

Currently using HP5 with D76 1:1 68ish degrees in a combiplan tank for 7 minutes for normal (though my 35mm HP5 in a steel tank is 10 minutes). Film rated at 200 when shot, generally. Similar to...

why not hire an assistant to do your dirty work? or have the sponsoring organization donate an intern to you for a day?

Any adjustment you make in Photoshop will degrade the image somewhat. That's why it is recommended that you do levels, curves, color correction and other such adjustments on Adjustment Layers; this...

I have a Toyo 45cx. It's an alright camera. It'll hold a lens in front of a piece of film just fine. I've used mine for some interior/architectural work, but most of the film it's seen has been...

The photo black will not fare any better. The problem with both is the tracing paper-it doesn't take ink from a printer very well. I've tried with several printers. What will work much better is...

I killed an epson 890 by leaving it on. According to Epson, when you turn off the printer it caps the print heads to keep them from drying out. With my 890, leaving it on caused a clog to form on one...
