With my new lens; the Sigma 35 art. I should have bought it sooner.

First photograph is shooting from the hip. I accidentally cropped my daughter's feet off shooting, so to balance it out, in LR, I cropped the sky and top of her head off too. It worked.

GThe framing on the first image is more compelling for me.

Yes, I agree. Good save on that one, in fact it made it a great comp, actually.

Acutol had strong edge effects, perhaps more than Rodinal. This is a crop of a 35mm negative and is only about a third of the full frame's area, yet each eyelash and pore is there.

It's me, 1986. 6 people posed that day exactly as I am, with my hat, jacket, gloves' My BSA. Some movie tryout. Not me... Shot with Leica II by my old running buddy, Skip Roman. Skip passed long ago. Negative lost. At that time I had it enlarged by Triangle Camera Chicago to poster size 24"X36". This is a iPhone SE copy of the faded print. Skip was a bar hustler of women. He made custom jewelry. If smart they gave 50% of his price. Then he worked fast to get the rest of the payment. Pay 100% and never see the item. I warned them. We had adjoining storefront art studios in a building of the deaf. We could make all the noise we wanted. I parked my bikes in my studio. Saturday parked inside the bar. The good old days. :)

Thanks you guys. I've been looking at all the different color films I've shot in the past and I'm scanning a sample of each. Many of these negatives are getting brown/yellow spots of discoloration in the highlights already. Does that sound normal for 25-30 year old color film? It's common to multiple film types too. I think it's time to start making digital archives of the ones I value the most.

Not a static pose, she was constantly moving while brushing out her hair.

I should make a flip book or a fast slide show. But I was shooting too fast for my strobes to fully recycle, so some good ones are underexposed.

I don't do this every day or year. She was a great model with no quirks. Calm as can be. I was not.

Thanks, Randy.

A collegiate flautist came to me to get a publicity shot for his final concert. I worked with him for a while and the poor guy had the most forced facial expressions I've ever worked with. Trying to get a deliverable image, I changed gears big time and tried to go with something where he didn't feel like he had to interact directly with the camera. When I pitched a film noir-looking shot to him, he smiled, so I figured that was the idea to go with. That being said, it doesn't look anything like my normal work so I'm not sure what to think of it.

Nice portrait, Ty. If the client likes it, go with it! :)

This is 1998 experimental Super 8 B&W film Head shots. 97 seconds. Made with DIY head that turned the camera 90 degrees every few seconds. No sound.

Meant to be projected onto a floor with viewers standing in a circle around it.

The subjects are college friends I knew I would forget and I have. One person I still know. Several have passed. The College is gone, wiped off the earth.

Elwood! You are (kinda) from Chicago. Next, you'll be saying things like: "There are 106 miles to Chicago, we have a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses."

Randy, I think small town life is turning you weird(er)!

[Tin Can]

"When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro."

That was a statement by Hunter S. Thompson, the father of Gonzo Journalism.

That statement gives us a small insight as to what Gonzo Journalism is. The only dictionary where you will find the word gonzo is The Oxford English Dictionary. That dictionary defines gonzo as: "a type of committed, subjective journalism characterized by factual distortion and exaggerated rhetorical style."

Kodak Tri-X in Rodinal - a bit more film grain than I expected. Maybe the Rodinal?

I suspect the grain is from the Rodinal. If you try Kodak's TMAX and Xtol, or Ilford's DDX developers, I think you'll see a decrease in visible grain, if all other things are kept constant.

Thank you, Gentlemen! This was setup in my living room. No stylist, makeup...., but there was a Bernese Mountain Dog, Klaus, who was very helpful. I made my first 8x10 photos that day, using a Century No. 7. Alas, I was a newbie and didn't realize that the post for the Packard shutter being gone was a problem. Yep, double images. I made a few Polaroid transfers. Remember those? Rollei TLRs are wonderful for full body or 3/4 portraits, especially if they have a brightened screen. My Automat is from 1953. My father bought it at Sears to use for photographing high schools sports, predominantly baseball and basketball.

Sergei; the color photo of the girl by the painting with boquet is very nice! The scene is a nice mix of tradition and timelessness.

Here's one of my daughter; cold and bored at the beach. I thought it a bit like Gertrude Kasabier's "The Heritage of Motherhood" but not soft and adulting. The plain oversized hoodie is my wife's and it's generic fit/look is a style Mortensen employed; really basic materials that are completely incorrect, but you look right past that at the person.

My usual Rolleiflex automat tessar, tmy2 in pyrocat hdc.

Thank you. So, to me, I post screen-filling shots on my laptop. I've lately found out that they look tiny to everyone who doesn't still use a 10-year-old MacBook Pro because 1,000 pixels on the long axis is a postage stamp to the new hip kids. So that's probably why they fit well on your phone.

It is great! I'd guess a pentax 67 with 105 ?

Here's my daughter being goofy. She was hangry but found blueberries and then had a good time. My only rule for vertical environmental style portraits is to not cut off the feet. Otherwise, no rules... Beech Hill, Rockport ME at dusk.

Here's a niece at the lake. I noticed she walked into a good composition, and I managed to keep her attention long enough to focus and for one click.
