post your Architecture photographs!

Thank you! I really like the 75mm. It is very close to 16mm on my D300s. I had a heck of a time composing it though and made a few minor mistakes. Very very dark.

Simon,
I don't want to sound like a twat, but was the Heygate series all just shot a series of foggy days or is there darkroom work to dodge parts of the final images for the gradient lightness.

I love the work, and its fascinating me.

Thanks,
Justin

Justin,
Haha don't worry. There is a fair bit of work done to these in the digital darkroom, it is a critical part of the whole idea of the series...

Glad you liked it!
Here is another one, with 90mm Nikkor-SW f4.5 and Fuji Pro 160s:

Is that a straight scan of the print? What paper (and toner if used?) The image tone is clearly very different and warmer than the other photo.

It's a scan of the negative. I scan it in the pro mode of the epson software as a 24bit color tif output. I use B&W negative with film area guide and adjust the levels prior to scanning.

Then in Gimp, I adjust the main curve to set the contrast and get the shadows and highlights just right, then desaturate based on lightness, then colorize to "tone" it. I set the saturation way down at 6-9 so it's subtle and the hue around 30-45 generally depending on the look I want. It's a quick and dirty process.

Thanks for the details, i always appreciate people to write down details of their processes.

I really like that hazy or foggy-look, very nice shot!
