Hmmm I think I'll leave any posts from this thread .... as it would involve probably in this order..

Convincing girlfriend to have child...

Getting her pregnant ( the enjoyable bit )

Shotgun Wedding

Waiting 9 months by which time my post wouldn't be on the first or the second page :-D

Also there is always an underlying risk my kid wouldn't like having it's photo taken, therefore everything would have been a complete waste of time / money / stress ...


Wonderful pic Frank. How old is your daughter? Hard to tell.

She's 23 chronological but seems a lot older in most ways other than finances...

2 of my 3 with photography as well as a self portrait kissing one of my paintings. Can you consider painting to be offspring? The last is the for a moving oil painting of my oldest offspring.

Not unless you have to pay for that painting to go to school for 17 years.

Tina & Rowan

2654 Lionel Shell tanker to the rescue because Rowan was getting tired of waiting for Grandpa to fire off the 11X14 Century 8

Baby photography with an 11X14 studio camera and a 22" Petzval is surely proof that you're certifiable.

Wow Darr, those are really nice. I'd make a crack that it must be the nice lens and equipment but we know that is only 1% of the equation... you just really nailed these perfectly.

I didn't even know you photographed people... you should do more.

I used to have a Bronica GS-1, and the 100mm normal lens was quite sharp too. The longer lenses weren't so great though.

I would also like to think that I recognize the signature of TMX in your photo. TMX seems super-realistic to me - more so than other films - from around Zone III to VIII. Below that, the values seem to drop off. (Perhaps it's my scanner). Sometimes TMX images look so faithful to the original, you forget they are in b&w... or is it just my imagination ?

Here's (http://www.kenleegallery.com/html/portraits/kmet.htm) a recent example, where it conveys that realistic quality.

Sheldon N

No pinching necessary on my part. He had actually just pinched himself on his Legos while putting them away for the evening. It doesn't take much when they're tired. :)

Pete,

That was my first try of a P & S Visual Quality No. 3 Series IV lens. Aperture was about 6.5 with Packard shutter. Indoor with natural light. I have read somewhere that you really needed two years to get to know this lens. I like it so far and definitely will spend more time to learn about it. :)

Thanks.

Hi Don,
It's depends on the paper though. I usually used rod with Weston paper for all the print size up to 12x20 because the paper doesn't need humidified . Nice and flat. Arches Platine is different. I prefer brush though.Have a pleasant day.TT

Here is my son... 20 years to reach this point... This shot was taken with a Bronica S2A, but there is an LF connection... I was out shooting at the beach the day of this shot and he was surfing - - right before he went back to college this past summer. I almost always have a second camera with me, and when he came out of the water to rest, I fired off an entire roll of film without his knowledge - - he didn't see the pictures until he came home for Christmas. If you look at the reflection in his sunglasses, you will see the tripod with the 4x5 mounted on it to the left of the station wagon.

When we get together with other parents of twins there is a common chorus of "Imagine Triplets!". Hats off for getting all three of them to stand still long enough to trip the shutter.

wclavey: that scar suggests some heroic parenting too.

wclavey: that scar suggests some heroic parenting too.

Yes, he was born with multiple congenital birth defects... he had his first corrective surgery when he was 4 weeks old. That visible vertical scar is from his open heart surgery when he was 5 months old and the circular scar is from his gastrostomy tube. He is fine now. I never think about it anymore and I am always surprised when someone sees it or comments on it - - it is something we lived with and I forget that other people don't know about it.

Struan Gray
20-Feb-2008, 02:07
I raise my hat twice. First for coping. Second for not letting it define his life for him.

This triptych is a little old now, taken a couple of years ago. I don't do much portraiture on LF, but they enjoy tripping the Sinar shutter on each other now and then. As soon as the gloom lifts and we get some light in the house it's time for another session.

This is Noah from about two years ago when he was 17. He is my backpacking buddy. He is actually willing to carry the LF camera up tall mountains in CO. A Godsend in a number of ways.
Cheers,

Any 17 year old kid who sports a peak lapel Tux (and a pocket square) in place of the current, trendy, notched lapel is a good kid in my books!
Well done sir! :)

My youngest, deigned to interrupt his improv practice for 2 mins to let me test out the new Chamonix last January -- this is a poor scan of a expired Polapan 100, he refused to sit still for any film. Probably my last shot where he still looks like my "baby" -- now has grown 5 more inches, cultivates a horrid pseudo-mustache and has lost his pudgy cheeks. Sigh.

I like that shot Joel -- only my oldest would be patient for me to take a shot outside with my 8x10, but she's off to college now, leaving me with Mr. Sullen ;) .

Here's one I shot today of the two kids fighting over who would get to put the dog on their laps. I managed to keep them occupied enough to burn 4 sheets of film. This was the best one.... Lens used was a new to me Jim Galli special 5" modified B&L cinephorII petzval with a Packard shutter I only got operational a few minutes earlier! The cardboard tubing I used was of varing circumferences so I could make quite a reliable system that could take filters... This shot called for an ND-8
