I am finishing up Edward Weston's biography by Ben Maddow and was curious about a couple of things. First, is the film Willard Van Dyke made sti ll accessable on video? And, where would one...
Would the work of Sally Mann, new and old, and Raymond Meeks be considered a modern form of pictorialism?
Many thanks eck wheeler
so if Atget was motivated, to some degree, to photograph his paris photos for the purpose of selling them to painters and architects then his work is not considered art?

looks like albumen. it's a silver handcoating process. beautiful stuff!

thanks Ed I'll give that a try. No, it's those little white dots and they appear only in clear areas.

Hello All, I have two seperate questions. First, does anyone out there know the filer ring size for a Turner Reich convertable? It's the series 2, with an 18" and 12" focal length. I need to...
Have you considered Azo with floodlight? Most rv sites should have electrical hookups. If not, get a generator. Also, how do you plan to process your film on the road? That, to me, would be more...
I have made pt/pd prints from Dan's method using an imagesetter for final output. I scanned a 4x5 type 55 contact proof and had it enlarged to 8x10. It looked great. No complaints. Still after...
Hello All, I have a Pentax analog spot meter that just quit on me! I replaced the batteries and still no luck. The needle twitched a few times then nothing. Does anyone have any advise on what...
Does Gravity Works make an 8x10 washer and where's a good place to find one? I have never liked rinsing and dumping with my JOBO, either.
many thanks to all e
Two of my favorite photogs. Sally Mann and Jock Sturges use 8x10. They're work is very uninhibited.

no digital C1 8x10 with Ilford HP5 processed with a Jobo CPA for contact prints on Azo #2 and pt/pd
I pay for this by shooting weddings and a few portraits. I use Canon Eos's mostly and some...
Chris, I gotta say I like what you had to say. Not being one to go on with a lengthy post. I have tasked myself to begin in my own backyard, literally, and attempt to find beauty. To force...
Also, on the Wim Wenders stint try Wings of Desire. It is one of the most beautiful films and very dream like.
Happy Holidays Ec
I have a few lf images on my etcetara page at echard-wheeler.com. It's great to get to sample some of the forum's killer work. Happy holidays to all.

all the other stuff aside I recommend Robert Adams, Why People Photograph. Mainly the first few chapters. It's good soul food.
happy holidays ec
I use hp5 8x10 and Azo grade 3 in dektol toned in selenium and love it. I can not seem to make a neg that works on grade two. It does seem to make everything flat. I have gotten good results by...
I have been using an old pentax spot meter with good results. I did get it off ebay and since it had no manual I basically figured out how to use it. One thing I hope someone can clear up is when...
I second the calumet option. I have a green one. It weighs approx. 14 or 15 lbs and is basically bullet proof. I can stuff it in the top of cheap I frame pack with film holders and etc and hike...
I make my living shooting weddings and some portraits. That pays the bills and I love the the life it affords me and it supports my 8x10 sheet film habit. But if someone refered to me as a...
This forum is just the best....I must check it out twice a day. I have loved Atget's work ever since my college photo class but never was sure how his name was pronounced. I've hear...
quick question: how do you pronounce Atget's name? Is it Atjay?
thanks echard
I had a similar problem with my crown graphic and when I converted to a c1 it still happened. Guess what? I had been putting the sheet film in upside down!
John, first off, when you arrive in Abq. have at least one meal at the Frontier on Central across from UNM. Good "la college grub". Try the Bisti badlands on, get this, route 666. take I40 west...
I have been reading Edward Weston's Daybooks and was curious if anyone could illuminate on why he fasted and what exactly he meant by fasting. He seemed to use it as a cure all. Also, b&h won't...
I just wanted to thank all of you for helping me find out what I was doing wrong. I wasn't switching the rotation. It was that simple. I was just letting it spin in one direction. So now I...
Over the past few months I have dove into the 8x10 format. After reading every post and comment imaginable I decided to get a Jobo drum to use on a besseler motor base to process my film. So here...
