What's your (LF) subject matter?

[Greg Lockrey]

My predominate subjects tend to be abstract with 4x5. Recently I've gotten into 6x17 format and experimenting with doing 3D (stereo) with that format. Hope to have some fall color images (I must be getting old) with that soon. Another little project that I am working on is to use a first surface mirror in front of the lens and make stereo one shot images with that. I have been trying to find a lens pair to use on a 4x5 for this but haven't been successful to date.


All cameras should be stereo btw.

I would like to photograph scenes that I supposed could sell.

My main part to go into LF was architecture, but meanwhile I'm doing almost everything in LF inkluding portraits and stillives and landscapes.

As old and slow as I am getting here lately, once I get the camera set up, it is whatever gets in front of it.
Old machinery and equip sitting in the field, as left-over reminders of some big-time operation of the past. Kinda like ghosts, visiting their past. We have a lot of abandoned oil fields and strip-mines around Oklahoma, so there is ample opportunities if you don't mind long. winding backroads in the middle of nowhere, on a lazy afternoon, with not a soul in sight for miles......

Family shots, then historical sites,even local history. To the outsider it may appear to be architecture and / or landscapes, but I figure pictures of the kids always look best with a lighthouse or mountain in the background.

i photograph a lot of buildings and streetscapes
before stuff is torn down and "fixed" ..
i also make portraits ...

A bit of everything-

Landscape, architecture, "travel" (read: buildings and fun cool stuff to look at in places other than where I live), still life, the occasional macro attempt (mostly with the 'toy' format 4x5. It starts getting to be a challenge to manage the bellows, depth-of-field, and exposure times when doing 5x7 or bigger. ), and of course portraits and nudes. There's a simple solution to doing portraits and nudes with large format- use strobes! At short range, you can even get enough oomph out of a Vivitar 283 to work in 4x5 if you shoot at large apertures if you're desperate.

With the big cameras I tend to gravitate towards still life and portraiture. I enjoy looking at LF landscape work, but I am not able to transport all the equipment to make those beautiful shots. I wish I could!
