Doors

[Don Dudenbostel]

I thought there would be a thread on doors but didn't find one. How about seeing some nice doors.

[Don Dudenbostel]

And one more.

Reinhold I'm expecting the Earth Mother Goddess to come through that door and offer me some tea!

As for my pic...keep in mind that I had ultra-fine fingertip control over the lighting angle as the door is on hinges! But thanks all!

Scans of prints I made today. I want to revisit the one door on a cloudy day so I don't have the shadow of the tree and that bright spot on the door.

[barnacle]

Agreed. I sit there, see a door with a nice shadow on it, and it *never* works when I develop the neg.

The palisade, though I really like. I just can't let a row of columns go :)

The columns was a pain to print. Bottom half is 6 seconds and the top 3 seconds. I tried to dodge the door to lighten it, but not much you can do with three seconds. Then again I'm still learning in the darkroom. The picture is cropped too, the first two columns are lined up at the edge on the negative. Can't see too well to get full use of the paper, I should probably try without the red lights on.

If you have a variable contrast enlarger, reduce the contrast (go to a lower grade) and shut down your enlarger lens several stops to get more time for dodging.

I have the contrast filters. I didn't think of stopping down the lens. Still learning, but it is fun, and the hours just fly by while in the darkroom.

Randy, it shows that it's your favorite. Nice door.

A little weather stripping before next winter would be in order.

I really like both of these, John. I actually like the tree shadow across the door. Very reminiscent of Bierstadt's Sunlight and Shadow.

Soft focus purists will probably scoff at the use of a humble Softar but I really like the effect... What lens?

I've tried a Softar fairly close up with a 300mm Nikkor-M here (https://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/showthread.php?42963-post-quot-in-Galli-style-quot&p=1470651#post1470651) with a 52mm to B50 adapter. Technically it makes even less sense on 5x7. I'll have to try it at a greater distance now - thanks for posting this :)

Recently, I became engrossed while working under the dark cloth, on a composition in Alpine, Arizona. I’m methodical (i.e. slow) when making photographs with my 4x5 and did not notice the thunderstorm quickly forming over the nearby Escudilla Mountain. Before I could finish making my photograph, the skies opened up and I was running for cover.

BTW, an old fellow trying to run through tall meadow grass, with a large format camera on a tripod, takes on an inebriated Sasquatch-like quality.

Gratefully, a small 100+ year old barn was nearby and provided sanctuary. As I lamented the photograph “not made”, I noticed this scene in a dark corner. Soft light coming from a crack in the barn’s log wall helped illuminate these doors that framed an informal still life. An unexpected, and initially unwelcome, monsoon storm helped me discover a wonderful scene that would have otherwise eluded me. How can you not love serendipity.

[John Layton]

Salmo...guessing the tripod was wooden...so you could live to share this with us? Seriously, what a gift to have been given this bit of sanctuary, and to have come away with such a great photograph! Nice sense of softness/crispness, delicate scale, geometric progression, sense of time passing...and I would love to see what looks to be great and rich shadow detail in person, as this is something that my mac screen cannot convey faithfully. At any rate...nice work!
