At first I thought it was computer or hand made made like a cartoon cell (https://www.animationconnection.com/original-production-cels)when I looked at on my tiny phone.

On my computer screen it appears to be an actual object sitting on a mirror or glass.

Trick!

Trying out RPX 25 in sheet film and trying out how much front tilt I get with a APO Symmar 120/5.6 mounted on my Crown Graphic. But I dunno. I think there is such a thing has sheet film being too thin. It's like handling a sheet of tissue paper at 0.0045in/0.1143mm thick.

Narcissus #2: "Genius Loci"

Wet Plate on glass (negative), 5 x 7 inches.
Lens: Voigtlander Petzval, approx 8", f3.2, no waterhouse stops.
Collodion: Old Workhorse w/ Coffer Negative developer.
Exposure was approximately 1.5 min.

https://live.staticflickr.com/7810/46620236005_ba3f1c1510_b.jpg

For me, this is more than a simple still life, although it certainly functions on that level. But more than that, it fits into a category of image that I think of as Genius Loci: a piece that evokes the Spirit of Place - a concept that is important to my work and is often represented in the images I make. The combination of materials (wet plate collodion on glass), the choice of lens (the magnificent Voigtlander Petzval) and the compelling intersection of light and space - for me - evoke a true "Spirit of Place" in this instance, and I'm very pleased with the result.

This work is extremely challenging on a number of levels: not only is it difficult to learn to control the Collodion process (many variables that are constantly being affected by season, atmospheric conditions, state of chemistry, etc.), but at this time of year especially, the light is changing every minute, every few seconds. The plate I made immediately before this one, clouds almost completely obscured the sun, so the mood was completely different. During the minute and a half exposure time of the plate you see here, the sun burst out of the clouds about 10 seconds into the exposure, and varied in intensity for the rest of the exposure. I had to adjust the duration of the exposure several times as the light changed in quality and intensity! (I started out expecting an exposure of 2:20) So what you see here is the cumulative effect of 90 seconds recording of several different states of light, from full blazing sun, to near complete overcast! The effect is an impression of bright streaming sunlight tempered by some softness and openness of shadows - a property not easily accomplished with this tricky medium.

I find this a singularly successful image that conveys a special confluence of atmosphere, space, and subject.

Nikkor-AM 210 5.6 on Wista 45, with Velvia 100. f/11 and either 1/4s or 1/8s. The Nikkor is mounted on an extension board, and it's a bit of a struggle keeping the lens propped up level, it tends to tilt down.

Ektascan BR/A cut to 4x5, EI50 in instant mytol. Scan from print on Adox Variotone, Se-toned. Lost some subtlety in the scanning process, but I notice I don't have the patience anymore with scanning and digital post processing I used to have.

Thank you! It was a beautiful piece of Galician beef chop about a kilo and a half. Very, very tasty. About the interpretation. I adore food and especially basque culinary, but I/m bored seeing food photography where the product shines like a diamond:) That's why I prefer something more trashy.

Thank you! I love Feininger's work with shells. His shell photographs were the inspiration for this. I just shot some more a few days ago. Too hot here to shoot much outside. Photographing still life is a great indoor activity.

Absolutely correct. That is the reason for many years i have bought as much film as I could afford once a year. Then I have watched the annual, or more often, price increases.

A couple of new ones yesterday with an Aldis WWI Aerial recon triplet of 20". Which sounds fantastic in itself. How did anyone manage a photograph with a 20 inch lens from a primitive bi-plane?? 20" f5.6 triplet and it has a lovely look. Sharp with magnificent bokeh. It would be perfect for 11X14 portraits.
