Hanging in a Hanger - Vertical

Shot some really great stuff at this abandoned mill/factory. Had a lovely friend and model with me, there are other closer shots that truly do her justice, she's one of the most beautiful and natural women I've ever met, just a joy to have as a friend let alone a model.

Had to climb a wall and hang there while taking the shot handheld, a great adventure and challenge!

I've been shooting like mad but haven't been able to develop in a while, finally got this roll done.

Nice shots Stone. Great location and she looks like she is having fun. Very important. Maybe email me more of the series? Don

Very nice. I am surprised how much I like the sprocket holes. They seem to guide the eye, a bit like a ladder, and I think it works very well for the vertical arrangement.So is the hanger in a hangar? :smile:

Yea, I've never shot an image with the sprocket holes as part of it, I've shot 70mm and framed it with the sprocket holes but the image was still framed with exposure inside the sprocket area, but I've seen some of the newer popular photographers shoot with those holga panoramics which include the sprocket so I wanted to try it (with a much nicer camera) and I think I like it, it didn't mess up the plane too badly leaving the 35mm guide piece out (which cut the light to the sprocket areas) and if I don like them I can always crop them, but at least I have the option.This was a hanger like garage, it had a few collapsed and falling apart boats, but it was some kind of marine factory originally. So sort of a hanger...

The sprockets work really well here, but be careful, they become addictive and it's easy to overuse them. Here they are just perfect. Great shot.

Yes, I was just thinking that sprocket holes can be overdone, but they are just perfect here. What a great location, I reckon that we may see more from here :smile:

Sadly, no more from here, someone called the cops on the flashing, they were kind enough not to destroy my images (or arrest me) but warned that I should not come back or I would certainly be a criminal trespasser... Sad really it was an amazing location. I do have more from this location, just won't be shooting ADDITOONAL work there.
