    The World Upside Down: Portraits

    Greetings.

    I've got a crowdfunding project up for an art project. Some of you may already be aware of my 8x10 portraits with x-ray film. This portrait work led me to photograph my first celebrity,...

    I thought about that and tried that. Still won't open. I decided I'd try a different program and downloaded the trial version of Vuescan. The trial version worked, so I purchased the full version....

    Re: October 2014 Portraits

    Bryan,
    I do have two versions of this portrait. The Flickr version (and the main image on my blog) is a scan of the contact sheet print version. At the time I was using a Zone VI enlarger to make...

    Anyone here got any advice for my issues? I can turn on my v750, but when I launch Epson Scan it crashes.

    Re: October 2014 Portraits

    Alright so it's technically not an October portrait, but I unveiled it last night (October 1st), I hope that counts. I've been keeping this portrait secret since I took it in May, seems a little odd...

    Thanks! Contact printing times are going to be different for each paper, developer, machine, lens, aperture, and distance to paper. I'm using a Zone VI VC enlarger at the moment, but almost finished...

    This is Ali's girlfriend. They came together for a sitting. Her's just as stunning as his, I think. I didn't have her approval for the image yesterday.

    Here she is. Acacia wood baseboard x2 + shims. It's a probably a little bit exotic, but it was this or MDF for about the same price.

    Re: Enlarger Baseboard Replacement?

    How thick is the original baseboard? My Zone VI enlarger (60 inch chassis) has a 2.2 cm (3/4 inch?) baseboard. I'd say the Omega D5 XL is probably about the same weight or just a tad more with the...

  24. Re: Hacking 8x10 and 11x14 enlarger LED head

    I wish they made these in smaller sizes. I haven't figured out how I would rig up a 12x16 adapter for my Zone VI enlarger.
  25. Re: Hacking 8x10 and 11x14 enlarger LED head

    Great information, Evan! Do you need to diffuse the light? I may end up making an 8x10 head to enlarge my 8x10 negatives after all!

  29. Re: Hacking 8x10 and 11x14 enlarger LED head

    By the way, what do you enlarge your 5x7 negative to? It seems like 16.5 x 23 would be around the largest I'd print on a 20x24 getting the proportions correct.
  30. Re: Hacking 8x10 and 11x14 enlarger LED head

    I've got lots of plans too. I don't see it being a bad thing, Randy. When I shot digital, I didn't have much of a passion or vision for my work.
