These are all cute and fuzzy until they get into my garden, but then... I won't be shooting IR film any more. Thanks everyone.

Thanks guys. Mike, the 360 shots were done with a kaidan 360 mirror lens. With the rb67 pointed upward, I used a 90mm lens and macro spacer to get 'unwarped' shots like this: http://keithwilliamsphoto.net/dejarnette/content/bin/images/large/dejarnette0409009.jpg After developing and...

S'more... http://keithwilliamsphoto.net/dejarnette

One of my recent shots from the DeJarnette Ctr. Others that I recently completed involved electronic 'dewarping' of a 360 image (taken with a Kaidan mirror lens). Those may be viewed as part of an ongoing set here: http://keithwilliamsphoto.net/dejarnette All were on film using 645 and...

I like the minimalism, very nice and easy to navigate. Looks good on Mozilla Firefox.

Yes, very good eye there!

lol Nope Scott it was real, and it was wondering what the hell I was doing and if I had any carrots. IR wildlife, a new genre for me.

There just aren't enough infrared bunnies on this site. And yes, I guess I did scan it upside down.

Yum.

Indeed it has! (politics notwithstanding ;) ) Let me recommend this brief article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_of_time (you might skip to the psychological/perceptual part) Anyway, my point RE: photography was this: Only isolated events are fully repeatable. I.e. one can say that...

I have all manner of reducing backs for an 8x10 and a 4x10, and I usually prefer to begin with the larger GG. especially if movements are involved... it's a way to see the "big picture" and also for the practical matter of seeing what's happening to my image circle (i.e. to watch out for...

There is one colour c41 film with which I am planning some b&w experiments. It is called rollei digibase.

Wax the paper neg.

Hmm, he looks a bit like that Perkeo fellow I saw in Heidelberg!

Late May is fine for me...

Thanks Mike, I will let it stew for a while!

Thanks, yes, the film is at least as IR sensitive as the Rollei IR, apparently more sensitive across the red through near-IR. Yes, the filter has a cutoff well beyond the visible range.

There are many different reducers... some are proportional and some are not, just read up on that. I suppose one other thing you might do is pre-expose your Pt/Pd emulsion.

Marko, get the lens you can afford, move on, and enjoy your photography. With any piece of gear, there is always a "better" ... this is the OCD side of photography. And yet there is very seldom any correlation between the cost and "quality" of the lens and the effectiveness of the photograph.

Urmas, here is a medium resolution drum scan of a medium format (6x7) shot on velvia 100. See for yourself. http://keithwilliamsphoto.net/mothdrum.tif Please also see this thread: (there was a url link here which no longer exists)

Test of Rollei superpan with #87 at EV+12. This could use some perspective correction at the enlarger. Those of you coming later next month to our Virginia photo gathering: this is one of the places we have on our to-do list. Barboursville is a half hour north of Charlottesville.

Test of Rollei superpan with deep red filter at EV+3. This also needs a bit of perspective correction at the enlarger.

Genius, Suzanne! What a great sense of scale and motion too.

Beautiful work. The small, huddled figure is very effective- the whole scene is about him, but also not. And the snow reveals those footprints in a very unusual way for what appears to be an interior hall. Thanks for sharing, an enjoyable series.

Well... they didn't have photography in the days of Ecclesiastes ;) But seriously, I believe that every moment is something new. And time has been running in one forward direction since the Big Bang. If I really believed that there isn't anything original left to be done in photography then...

Totally different media. I get a bit annoyed when I read about this as X versus Y. It's almost as annoying as digital versus film :rolleyes: As if somebody feels the need to sort us into camps and then sit back and watch us duke it out for the umpteenth time. Which type of film I choose...

Very nice work Cheryl! ...and his look is highly original :p ;)

:o My level of "shocked-ness" continues to rise in this meandering thread! ;) Migrant Mother is just good? Death of a Loyalist Militiaman is just good? Nick Ut's shot of the burnt little girl fleeing a napalm attack is just good? Cartier Bresson's photo of a woman confronting a...

Galah, I don't agree with what you're saying at all; there is a huge library of great photography that leaves people feeling anything but uplifted. The wartime work of Brady and later of Capa... the migrant mother of Lange that I just mentioned... there are so many great photographs that flood...

Ian, I am afraid that if we start to discuss specific images, you will get disparate opinions scattered all over the place. And even though a few people may chime in sincerely -perhaps even a few dozen within a week or two- that's still statistically insignificant compared to the thousands of...
