Windows, Bermuda, 2007

Michael, Another nicely seen photograph. Thanks for posting.

Cacophony of windows? Is there such a thing? Nice humor in this one. It kinda reminds me of the south side of my house... It's a real mutt!
Michael, how large do you print these? I would imagine an 11x14 would be real nice.

Thank you for the comments.
I usually print anywhere from 4x5 to 20x24. I work with a print and get a feel of what is a good viewing size. The Bermuda shots were taken with a hassy and can't be enlarged much more than 11x14. Or 11x11. But some are 8x8 or even smaller. again I will print starting at 8x10 and if I feel it will support a larger print and look stronger I will print it that way. I don't believe in larger is better. Or if it isn't a strong print, print it large. Remember, Weston and Strand's Contact Prints almost all there contact prints of 8x10 or smaller and look how strong that work is.

I definitely agree on print size. I shot some portraits a couple a weeks ago in 4x5, and thought I'd be printing large, but about 6x8 or so seemed to work much better, so I stopped at that.
I too think there is a craze about everything having to be large, so your opinion is refreshing to me. I did, however, think that the nice details in the windows and the wall would look good a bit larger.
Thanks for sharing your opinion.

Very nice series of photographs, Michael. I think this one in particular has a lot of character. Very well seen.

All the best,
