We bought a print of the "Holy Grail" in about 1975/6 for $4K. Sold in 1989 for $14K to build a house. Sold because I came home from work every day and walked right past it.
I have used the Omega D with the "flying saucer" cold light head and found it acceptable, but I moved to a Saunders Lx etc. B&W head which I liked more. Better build.
Regarding Bob Salomon's remark about large format and newspaper photography: I was surprised to see a B&W photo of MLK side view on the steps of ?the Lincoln Memorial--on the other side was a photog...
Wow, Corran!
Hugo is indeed the man.
Pentax DIGITAL spotmeter. I have a friend who dropped his Pentax analog while photographing in Europe. Became a big problem.
Bring a mask and wear it.
spoiled by "breaking in" and interrupting ads. Schumer, Stacy Abrams. Maybe nice folks, I'm sure, but I quit watching Slovenia.
trekking poles. Obligatory.
Jan welcomed me very warmly when I showed up at an opener for an exhibit of Kirk's and Jan's work in Santa Fe in 2018. I had been living in Albuquerque exactly one week as of the night of the...
i agree with gnd2.
Sales and purchases have slowed a lot during the virus.
New Mexico. Just over 2 million mostly hospitable people with 5 great cultures. So lots of lonely spaces. Many Hernandezes if you look closely. And--the light! Strong and mysterious.
Thank you QT and moderators! This forum is like a library to me.
Folks, I too am in the Southwest, and re:
by Steven, I have experienced lots of condensation in August at 9,000 ft in NM. I think the best way to deal with condensation is to use a tent which...
I have used two different backpacks and I have only two pieces of advice:
1. Get a "panel loading" (as contrasted with a top loading) backpack;
2. Go as light as you can. You will move around...
wonderful art! Can't say more!!
Folks, many of the color images here appear to me to be over-saturated. I know from experience--I live in the Southwest United States--that I can't go to those locations at any time and see such...
My guru says that you need 16GB of RAM to run Lr and Ps. I have no image files in the on-board memory of my MacBook. They are on an external 1TB SSD and any work gets saved to the SSD. I take the...
Hola, los cazadores de los patos en los EEUU usan muchas veces un pequeño bote, se llama un "John boat." Con un fondo plano, es muy estable. Por favor, no kayak! Ni un canoa! Pero con un poco de...
Big-tent-seekers should take a look at REI's Kingdom 4 and Kingdom 6 tents. I have the 4 and I bought what REI calls the "Garage" which attaches to it, and the whole weighs 18 lb. Ceiling height is...
Ahead of his time, leading the way.
I concur with Luis-S-F and Sal Santamaura. I owned a LPL4500 with the VCCE head. Easy to use.
Note from a non-purist: Cropping is not forbidden, nor is it a sin. With lenses that are suggested in this forum for your CG you may well have unwanted image area on the negative. Thus you might...
Your first is much, much better than my first! Keep moving!
And--
Hello, Hugo! :)
If you like man-made structures, there are the pueblos, true. As to certain places like Tent Rocks, Bisti Badlands, Bandelier, etc., snow and snow made into ice by daily doses of sun, might make...
+1 with Philippe!
Another nudge to digital?
"Nude workshop." I hope it DOESN'T mean that photographers must be nude while taking part....
Rain water can be VERY different from distilled water and equivalent in large urbanized areas, including areas typically--usually--downwind of large urbanized areas. Precipitation "washes" the air...
Where are the great shots? You could say Point Lobos for one, because Edward Weston found great shots there. But he didn't need Point Lobos to be a great artist who used the medium of photography. ...
Somebody at The New Yorker should have read the article before it went to press. Egregious writing.
Recommend that you be young. And strong.
Folks, I am only halfway through, but this is very good information. Thanks for sharing, Ken!
Funnel?????
Well, if you already have two candles, one in each hand, then I'd say you just need two more for each of your feet.
His work is in the dining room of the Big Trees Lodge, formerly the Wawona (and now that there is a settlement over use names, maybe soon the Wawona--again!). Wonderful!
Well, I have a 45N-2, love it, but you have to practice with ANY camera. With practice I pretty quickly learned where to place the front standard, but when I first got the camera, I didn't get it...
