Making art might not have much to do with the paper, but teaching usually does.
Some sort of formal education (M.ed, MFA, BS/BA ) is requires no matter where someone wants to teach. Whether or not...
Sell off everything you have: lenses, bodies, film, film holders. Keep only your small or digital cameras and don't look back.
There will be plenty of cameras and lenses and film if/when you...

The Hasselblad view cameras were custom made by Szilárd Szabad. The cameras were made and sold, and Szabad eventually decided to put his own name on them and call them "Szabad" cameras, instead of...
Thanks for the warm welcome, Alan. :)
Sorry for my confusion, I thought this was a 4x5 or bigger forum ( and other smaller sizes were frowned upon ).
I know Victor Hasselblad used to make...
Alan, no mention of their view cameras?

I have a lot of respect for photographers who are able to make large format figure studies and have them be true and honest; It is a fine line to cheezy and tasteless.
There are lot of honest, and...
Wonderful image !
Thankyou for posting this.
That's a lot of scanning !

Mark Sawyer, THAT is funny 8D
What he said.
I feel badly for the poor people that had to read resumes from people who hadn't the foggiest notion what "HABS" meant. I wonder how many out of the 4000+ were actually qualified for the position.
A couple of Centurys.
I don't have a WP camera but do have a 7x11 back for a 11x14 camera.
I have made some plexiglass ones with a small asymetrical sander.
You could focus closer to you, so the lens will be able to do its
"wide open" thing, or unscrew one of the elements a little bit, or
