t0aster, Well these are well done and disturbing. How about an artist's statement?

He painted himself up, brought out a few prop items to use and we quickly went through the 6 sheets of paper I can carry at a time.

Having never tried paper negatives before, i decided to give it a shot. Wasted about 4 sheets before I got some decent results. Not much luck contact printing these yet, but the negatives themselves turned out better than I had anticipated.
Rodenstock Ysarex 150/4.5, Adox Easy Print RC311 rated at ISO 6
Rear element of a Xenar 135/4.7 (effectively ca. 90mm f/3), Adox Easy Print RC311 rated at ISO 6
Oh yeah, this is 4x5". Trimmed 10x15cm sheets to size using plain old scissors.

Taken with a foamboard sliding box 10x8 camera with a no name brass lens. I have, up until now, only ever shot this lens wide open as I don't have any waterhouse stops but decided to make some from card and give it a go. Seems to have worked quite well.
Great image, let's see some more!

The photograph and the thing being photographed are not the same thing.
Thanks Joe! Want to get it outside now on a calm day, see how that works out.
nicely done
