Eclectic Collection of Images

# Please post any type of Large Format Images on this Thread #

I am starting off with three of my images all are 8x10in. The first "Ephemeral Man" is a single exposure of 8 minutes duration @ f/90 using my 210mm f/5.6 Schneider lens. The second image is of an "Old Railway Bridge" using a hybrid pinhole for 4minutes @ f/250. The third image is of an Old Ironbark ( A type of Eucalyptus tree - we Australian's call them Gum Trees) 10 minutes @ f/90 - 210mm lens. All images were taken on orthochromatic X-ray film to give an old world look. Please click on images to get a larger view. :)

What is a Hybrid Pinhole?

I like the images, just don't know what this is.

Hi Willie,
My wife found the pinhole camera images a bit fuzzy (even though it was an optimum pinhole) so I incorporated a simple single element lens. It gave just the right amount of resolution for her and me.
Cheers Kanga

Hi Tin Can,
Your link is not showing up in my browser. Could you say how to post full size. If you click on the images they will show up a bit larger - the images I uploaded were 2000pix in their longest dimension.
Cheers Kanga (Peter Kinchington)

Seems you fixed your posts

You can post any size that is too big and LFPF will resize

Hi Bon,
Thanks for the info.
Cheers Kanga

Please find attached another two images. These are alternative process images - the first is a Lumen print of a Bird of Paradise Flower made on Ilford multigrade BW enlarging paper and the second is a Cyanotype of Cobra Lillies. Both images were made on 8x10in paper. Click on image to enlarge. :)

Enjoy! Kanga

great photographs Kanga !

I have been here for a few years and I will never post anything anywhere full size. ( full size I see as being giant resolution and giant image size .. 7x7 at 72 dpi is full size enough for me on the internet, no point in any bigger, mainly for a phone ? ) ..

I look forward to seeing more of your image making -
John

ps. a pinhole with a lens behind it is a lens with a tiny fstop, not a modified pinhole :)

Hi John,
I know what you mean about not posting full resolution - if I scan my 11x14in negatives it equates to about a 9 gigapixel sensor or about 84,000 pixels on the long edge!
And yes I agree with your comment about my modified pinhole camera - it has a lens with a tiny f/stop - I guess I was really describing how this camera evolved :)

Thanks for your compliments on my images.

Cheers Kanga

I do my best to scan lite, both my computer and my brain have memory cards that seem close to full :)

Hi John,
Here are two more images for you. I took them as part of a collaborative project with other photographers. Basically participants were sent a Harman Titan 8x10in pinhole camera to use and a double dark slide loaded with Harman Direct Positive Black and White Paper. The contrast of this paper is extremely high even though I photographed the buildings using soft overcast/cloudy ambient light. I exposed both images for 30min @ f/288 3iso rated (150mm focal length). What I particularly like about long exposures in the city is that even though the traffic was heavy in the first image (Flinders St Railway Station in Melbourne, Australia) it does not show up because it is on the move. Likewise in the second image (Exhibition Buildings in Melbourne) - the pedestrian traffic was heavy - but not a single person shows up in the image.
Please click on image to enlarge :)

Treeferns and Mountain Ash,
I took this landscape in the Dandenongs National Park. I used a 300mm f/9 soviet era process lens. Exposure was 15min@f/90. Film was 4x5in fomapan 100 rated @ 50iso and developed in 1:100 rodinal using stand development. Please click on image to enlarge :)

Nice!
I also love how anything below 1/2S vanishes everything that's not nailed down.

Interesting shot - I never thought that Treeferns and Mountain Ash would exist in the same environment.

Hi Martin,

This forest type is known as Wet Sclerophyll - it is found in the Australian states of Victoria and Tasmania - it is my favourite forest type with the ancient looking tree ferns and the magnificent Mountain Ash (Eucalyptus regnans) the tallest flowering plant (angiosperm) in the world they can grow over 100 metres in height.
Please find attached another image of a mountain ash tree in the Dandenongs - locals call it the Monkey Tree because they see monkey faces in the tree burls. This image was taken with my 8x10in camera with 210mm lens on lith film rated at 3iso for 1hour @ f/90. Stand development in 1:150 rodinal. Click image to enlarge :)
