Still life images 2016

[Robert Langham]

I'm not particularly interested in flowers, they just keep jumping in front of the camera.



Rose and bone.

Whatever happens in the yard is what I work with. I'm not sure what the little blooms are, something exotic. Waiting on Catalpa and Magnolia. Roses and little tree blooms happening.

Found a squished-by-bike rattlesnake and a broken bike chain the other week. I thought that they worked well together.

Garden still life. Linhof Master Technika, Ilford FP4/Fuji Provia, schneider 210mm f5.6 apo symmar shot at f5.6. I have never used provia before but the colours on the film are great but my scanning and processing does not really do it justice.

Hi there folks,

Asian water chestnuts. Never saw these before in my life till a few months ago. To me they're very alien, like the face-hugger pods from the movie Alien.
HP5 plus, scanned on Epson 2450, some digital manipulation in Lightroom 5. Set up took hours because I kept knocking into it and disturbing the arrangement just when I'd focused the camera, each time. The bellows factor math also gave me some pause, but it turns out I did ok with it.

Not sure whether this really qualifies as "still life": Prince's Purple Rain LP was spinning throughout the entire 90s exposure. But I did freeze the label of the record with some electronic flash.
Shot on New55 PN instant film with a Graflex Super Graphic. This is a scan of the negative.

Just shot a first set of tests to try out my restored ICA Tropica and to try some different ground glass holders. Fellow member Xipho was so kind to provide the film for the tests. One of the shots might be seen as a still life I guess...

Yes, one of these famous Technics Discothek players with rounded needle...
Since years, I wish to expose my Transrotor Golden Shadow - maybe this year :-)

If exposing 90 seconds, with flash for freezing, please tell me :
where are the movements of the long exposure?

Thanks,
Ritchie
