I've been enjoying the threads of rocks, trees, portraits, and bridges! How about some recent/favorite architecture photographs? I searched, but couldn't find a thread dedicated to this... so, lets make one! :)

Here's 3 from this passed weekend from a local photography meet up and shoot up!

Chamonix 4x5, 90mm Super Angulon on the first two wides, and the last shot was 240 G-claron. Tri-x 320 (click for larger versions)

OK, this was with one of those tiny 90/.6.8 Angulons that aren't any good for architecture btw.

The fuzzy component of an old Thompson Bros. casket set adds "something" to this picure. All the other cells in this set are very good and sharp Rapid Rectilinear-types; this one cell has three elements and is ridiculously "zoomy".

sometimes architecture doesn't have to be sharp.

Thanks Vinny, I appreciate the compliments.

Just curious - when you (or anyone else who reads this) clicks on the thumbnails to enlarge them, do they show up enlarged? When I do that I get the following message:
"Firefox can't find the file at /forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=13446&d=1213111455." Kind of strange because when I click on other thumbnails in this thread they all come up as enlargements just fine. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I deleted my first post of these images because they came up too dark, fixed that, and then reposted.

I found one of my older images... :)

This interior image was captured in Windsor, Ontario, Canada several years ago, where this church was originally established as "The Mission of Our Lady of the Assumption among the Hurons in Detroit” in 1728, by the Jesuit missionary, Fr. Armand De La Richardie, S.J.

In 1765, a 60 x 30 ft. church was erected for the Hurons and some sixty French settler families, and a few years later in 1785 the first rectory was built. The present structure was finally completed in 1902...

A beautiful church with a great history.

Great images everyone.

I have once asked to a friend, who is the event organizer at the Getty, and she told me she couldn't help me.
What's your secret??

I took an LF class at Otis College of Art and the instructor (Carol Reiss) got us into the Getty for 2 consecutive years (I went as her ass't the second year). We went on Monday afternoons (the museum is closed) and we got the run of the grounds, but not the interiors. It was a blast. Alas, she no longer teaches at Otis.

I figured someone would ask.

thanks Björn!

it is a zero image pinhole camera. most of the shots above are 75mm "focal length". the 3rd one is wider....maybe 25mm. i have many other LF pinhole cameras that are home built (by my friends). i will post a picture of it tonight.

it is a wonderful travel camera. the biggest issues are the film holders. they weigh the most. next time i may bring some grafmatic holders....the grafmatics weigh almost as much as a few film holders do but they take up way less room. another great thing is most people have no idea what i am doing with the box....great fun to show them the inside.

Hi Capocheny,

Thanks for the comment! Andrew has the location right. This image was made quite some time ago, and apparently the church is being restored with all new shingles and a paint job. Yuck!

Collin,

I love that 6x17 image. Old rustic/antique buildings like that in those settings are so neat to see. Makes you wonder what it was like back in those days when it was new. I'm also partial to panoramic images myself. Stuff like that is very inspiring, especially since I just got a 6x17 back myself. No more (Or at least much less) stitching multiple digital shots. Thanks for sharing!

Jon, which film were you using? Are you pumping up the colours in photoshop?

Jon Shiu
2-Aug-2008, 18:32
Hi, for pictures 2-4, the film is Velvia 50 and it does tend to pump up the colors itself, especially greens. I did do a lot of Photoshop processing (Highlight/Shadow) on the Minkler Store picture to bring out the shadow details. The first picture of the Elk Garage is a pinhole shot with old Kodak Pro 100 negative film.

Hey Darryl,,, All these photos are great but I keep coming back to this one... This one has the most meaning to me..
Excellent job
Regards
Steve

Thanks, I put that image up while I had a different scanner, with a narrow image area. Here's the full image. It doesn't have the same suck-you-into-the-back-frame as much, more of the context of the street, and less of the architectural design. That store has already changed to include a glass-enclosed front and different door. gotta get busy.... :D

Can it be considered as architecture photgraphy? If not, i remove it :)

Sure it's architecture. Love it! It would make a great image for a spooky book or film ad.

A question of qualification.

Are images taken with a Horseman SWD and a MFDB considered large format? (the Horseman is a view camera, and the resulting image is in the > 100Mp range)

Jim Cole:

That's by the Pioneer Museum and the Coconino Arts Center? That's a nice shot. I was going to take that same shot, but looking from the opposite side, back in July, but I couldn't wait for the sun (my daughter was taking a watercolor class there and the class ended before the "right" shadows appeared).

Jim Cole
17-Sep-2008, 22:13
Richard,

You are exactly right. I live just up the highway about 1/4 mile. Sorry you missed the light...it was very cool. It has an M.C.Escher feel to it. If you would have been able to wait for the shadows to form, you most likely would have shot from the same side as I did. Maybe you can catch it next time around.

What an inspiring thread! Steven, thanks for reopening it-I've enjoyed going through the pages. As an occasional architectural historian, I'm enjoying all of these--looking at good pictures of buildings is, after all, the main reason that I got into LF in the first place.

Here's one of my favorites from a volunteer project that I did for the Erie Canal Museum in Syracuse--a powerhouse along the lock in Newark. 4x5, 150mm old-ish Schneider, red #25 filter, Delta 100.

Here's one from a few years ago, what remains of the Farmington Meetinghouse near Rochester after a terrible windstorm in 2005. I did a bit more volunteer documentation when its status was less clear than today. Here's more information on the poor building and the plans to make something of it:

As usual I'm very late contributing to some of these image threads ... I don't take many which I'd call architectural shots but these might fall somewhere close to that category.


The first image is at 350 Euston Road, London. It's very close to where I worked until last year. I'd just taken the image when the security guards rushed out of the building saying I wasn't allowed to take pictures there. Being a bit argumentative sort I pointed out I was standing on a public right of way and they had no right to stop me. After some firm but polite banter I decided to leave - particularly as I'd already exposed my film! I know that more and more photographers are being challenged when taking pictures - but usually of people - but this was just plain out of order. A retrograde step of which we all need to be wary.
The second is of window lights to the left side of the altar in Coventry Cathedral. Unlike most of our cathedrals which are generally well over 500 years old, this one was built in the 1960's to replace the one destroyed in WWII. To me this image has an Orwellian feeling about it.
The third is of a 14th century tithe barn (Bredon) showing the fantastic timber beams which support the immense roof. Some of the timbers were replaced after a serious fire in the barn in 1980 started by a cigarette.
The final image is of a lovely leaded window in a church in Dorset.

All images are from 5x4 Tmax 100 & 400.

Thanks Allen. This is one of my favourites. It's almost unreal with a feeling of foreboding. I think it's something to do with the high small windows looking down as if someone is keeping an eye on you. Come to think of it, perhaps that's what we're supposed to think in a cathedral!

Mother natures architecture: The great Shawnee chief Tecumseh sought refuge at this site. Bear creek carved a deep narrow channel and Spring Creek punched a hole in the sandstone to form a natural bridge.
Following the defeat of his Indian confederation at the battle of Tippecanoe in 1811, Shawnee chief Tecumseh, sought refuge at this site.
Tecumseh died in battle of Thames near Windsor Canada but the exact site where his body fell is unknown.. The surviving Indian's carried his body away so that no whiteman could lay hands upon him..
At this site in the area of the Portland arch grows plants only native to Canada which leads many historians to believe they may have buried Tecumseh in this deep ravine near the bend in bear creek and the waterfall...

I too quite liked the photo of Coventry Cathedral--very evocative, borderline abstract. The tones and texture reminds me a great deal of the drawings/delineations that Hugh Ferriss did back in the 1920s and 1930s for buildings in New York City:

Didn't know here i should post this... i have bee trying this colour thing, seems they invent allkinds of things these days. Who knows, maybe they will someday make a camera that works without film.. :) , that'll be the day.

After 6months of shooting colour, i'm finally getting the developing part right! It's been horrible to shoot completely blindfolded all this time.

Shot on Shanghai 100asa film and developed in Rodinal. Focussing was with the coupled rangefinder, not the ground glass, and all shot hand-held.

Yeah it really surprised me too. That grave stone is leaning over alot which helps with the effect. I'm not sure if I'm totally sold on it but I'll probably keep it.

Barns tend to have more funtion than aesthetic, but still challenge the architectural prowess of equipment and photog. Peter French's P Barn and Round Barn, Oregon. Round Barn was with my widest lens (Rodenstock 90mm) at the time, I need to get back with my 72mm XL. Both are 4+ minute exposures, probably velvia.

And this is from the old cableway central in Longyearbyen.
I had to redo this shot, and this is the second attempt. The differnce in light intensity between the sunlit floor in the foreground and the floor in shadows were huge. With this shot I adjusted exposure and development to get the values where I wanted them.

Acros is a really good film.

When it comes to texture, the print of this image is my most successful ever. The negative is slightly underexposed, rating this film at iso 200 ia a bit high (Fomadon Excel developer). If I continue using this film I will do some speed testing.

I think fomapan 200 is excellent film, really cheap and has really nice sharpness due to the sharp grain it has. I have a feeling that it is at it's best when slightly under exposed. It delivers really nice blacks but doesn't hold highlights so well as it's a t-grain film.

I have mainly shot it in 35mm but some in 4x5, and the 4x5 i under exposed (asa 400) and developed in rodinal 1+50 and it was really good. Then again, it was in flat light.

Have anybody seen this film in 9x12?

I agree, Fomapan 200 is a really good film. I have only used it in 4x5", but i see from the data sheets that the sheet film version has an extended sensitivity in the red area campared to the roll films. Datasheet (http://www.fomafoto.no/div/teknisk/film/F_pan_200_en.pdf)

Fomafoto (here in Norway) has at least Fomapan 100 in 9x12 cm, if you ask maybe he can get Fomapan 200 in that format as well:
http://www.fomafoto.no/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage_fomapris&product_id=1437&category_id=33&manufacturer_id=0&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1

Even if I enjoy Fomapan 200, I simply love Acros, it has become my standard BW-film for large format. And with it´s reciprocity characteristics it is perfect for pinhole.

Eirik and monkeymon, to my information, Fomapan 200 in sheets is not at all available here in the Czech Republic, is only exported. And it's only available in imperial sizes, not metric. (Or, I have never seen reference to metric sized Fomapan 200 in any shops anywhere, and when I inquired the factory directly, I was reluctantly given info only on 4x5 and 5x7 size).

So I'd assume that Fomapan 200 is really only available in imperial sizes, Fomapan 100 in both metric and imperial sizes.

21-May-2009, 14:09
I asked about it from fomaphoto, and they gave me short reply stating only 100 asa is available in 9x12... shame. I have to cut it from 4x5 then, it's seems much sharper and has better micro contrast than the 100 asa fomapan. Fomafoto.no is the only source for fomapan 200 in sheet film i have found.
