    During Virus Time - a new series by Stephen DiRado

    https://stephendirado.com/during-virus-time-2/

    The last picture shows Stephen DiRado with his camera - the original version of the Phillips Compact 8x10.

    Thanks Oren! Some very interesting and strong work on his website—I'll explore more when I have time.

    At the end of his beach portrait series is a photo of him with a different 8x10 camera. And a short video— https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBKJIhGOKj4&t=8s

    It's the same camera, actually. The wood just looks dark and orange under that light. Like Stephen himself.

    I thought maybe he stayed out in the sun too long...

    It's good to see that he's still working.

    I'd dropped in on Stephen D. and Frank Armstrong a few times at Clark University...where they run a truly stellar photography program, with great facilities for both analog and digital. Very active with lots of students present working on various projects.

    Stephen and Frank also wanted to offload an 8x10 Durst enlarger...but it was too huge for me to transport - much less fit into my darkroom! Oh...and a horizontal enlarger also, sliding atop what looked like railroad tracks - again, too huge!

    Stephen has a great video of himself and his dog...which is happily lying down as Stephen drags it by its leash across the grass! A bit disconcerting to watch...but the dog loved this!

    At any rate...I'll plan another visit at some point, and in the meantime I hope they're doing well.
