My wife gave me a subscription to LensWork for Xmas. Today I got the issue #56, which has a portfolio by Olivier Meriel, who shoot 8x10 and 11x14 - he is French (with a name like that what else?), and I am really impressed with the work in the magazine.
Would those of you who are much advanced be so kind as to look at the prints-he makes contacts, and see if you can figure out how he made these?
I can do a crude approximation of the dark sky etc in Photoshop, but he is working in contacts, something I am getting into-got a box of AZO from Michael White, etc.
I have never heard of this guy, but he is really really really good!
I can guess about sepia, etc, but would be groping in the dark.
You can download photos from www.lenswork.com, titled "Inland from Normandy" one of his best is on page 13.
