I'm lost
« on: July 22, 2009, 09:32:15 PM »
This chappie fella me lad has loaned me a fine 8x10 camera thing and I could not resist shooting off a couple of paper negs [Silverprint proof]. Great fun. These are digitally inverted but I have two contact prints drying as I write. Am I lost?

How very special!

Do you think you'll go rambling with the big camera on your next trip to Skye?

Ha, sure to. The biggest problem here is that the wind blows often very constant and often strong so i'll need a better tripod - and an anchor or two. Skye would be easier !!!!!

Andrea,

Not that I am trying to teach grandma how to suck eggs but keep in mind that for the 'St Ansel' clones the effects of wind on and inside the bellows is anathema but with your style the sensitised material (especially paper) shifting in the holder due to turbulence inside the bellows could impart something quite serendipitous.
