A little space for hacks and taxi-driver users of the large format. Some shots might amuse or even instruct pure souls.
This is the real shot behind my back-yard post of last year. Having fun with smoke, a big tarpaulin and diorama type lighting for the dawn light.

Wel,l the setup looks very impressive- it looks like a lot of work too-
You might have to remind me of the photograph last year, I'm sure I would have remembered it, so I mustn't have seen it...
Very Dali-esque and quite beautiful.
Seems I'm on my own. Try again. Built out of foam bricks. On 4x5 Ektachrome.
My job is often very similar to window dressing. Budding table-toppers beware.
Quite ancient, I had some hair. 8x10 pre-Photoshop set for a wrap-around cover. Note the 8x10 Polaroid on the floor... those were nice. I spent two days hot-gluing and lighting that thing. I was probably doing multiple pops to get enough light for stopping down.
These are the textiles that go into copy machines for paper handling. The company was owned by some British Lord who had sheep in the Shetlands, they manufactured them in a plant in Upstate NY and sold the parts to Xerox and others. That's why when Kodak or Xerox mess up, they take 3-4x the number of jobs with them.
So buy some Kodak film please.
Frank, I know that one, 'We need more background on top for the Headline'. I notice the beer.
Before Photoshop made retouching inexpensive, an awful lot of objects bled off the page... into wires and clamps ;-p
Or worse we'd punch through a background with a wire and glue the object onto it, then careful bend and frame things so nothing showed. It all seems so absurd now....
"It all seems so absurd now.."
Yes, but well worth it.
I deal with people that if there's no button for it.... It doesn't get done.

There will never be enough flooring.
