Another member wasting film.
« on: April 07, 2012, 12:14:38 PM »
Hello!

I though I should introduce myself. Following and stalking friend around the dark alleys of the internet I found this place I figured I would fit right in.

I'm am right now an unwilling factory worker spending my time in an amazing and chaotic machine hall filled with robots and welding machines where I'm not allowed to even bring a camera. Trying to find a contrast to this I mostly wander around in the woods taking pictures of trees. Somehow I cannot get enough of them. Especially the dead ones.


Mamiya Universal,100/2.8  RPX400 ei 1600 (RPX-D)

I also realized I'm a gear head. There is just too many great cameras not to get my greedy hands on. The Mamiya press system seems to be more or less my foundation in my collection. Don't know why really, but strange looking cameras with large negs appeals to me. Sadly I cannot wet print anything larger than 6x6 yet. Since I'm quite lazy and non-systematic my nice big 6x9 negs often looks like something from a half frame camera someone stepped on. Doesn't bother me though.

I even managed to screw up things with a tripod and a plan! But I usually like the results.

So. What I expect of you is to inspire me to waste even more film and overwhelm me with inspiration. So.. get to it!

Oh, I know that very well Mr Ed, but I thought it might be the Bru that's giving Mr W the strength to snap the trees.  8) 8) 8)

It's the wind I get from drinking a can of the stuff that brings the trees down ;)

Seriously... That Tri-pod is above epic! I wish things came out this good when I screwed it up.

And the dead tree really looks amazing.
