Photography thread

[106-2]

just had a week away with family and I'm now feeling very much re-invigorated, having taken a lot of photos and differently from how I was typically approaching photography (honestly AS Photography has/had sucked all joy out of it for me, taking a creative A-level feels like such a false concept.

anyway...






(I'm aware that this isn't the best photo technically, but I love it on a personal level)









actually looking forward to being able to edit these!

almost a double post (sorry about that), but some stuff ive shot in the last month or so

[zayg]

how does one enter the world of photography as a career in a non-commercial manner without going to school

i'd like to work in the industry in some manner, i don't even mind working in a commercial sector (probably not being directly behind the curator, but working more in a director role) but i have no idea where i would ever even start without deciding to put myself in $100k of debt to go to grad school

[zayg]

i have been featured

got my film from glastonbury developed, made some v quick n dirty scans of them



yungen/the blues stage in the top two, novelist bottom left and one of of my favourites bottom right, of sonic



like the top left here, others are p forgettable imo



the fucking mud in top left, neato prose abt brexit () that was pasted about top right, and a nice one of glade bottom right.



Mac! best two are bottom two imo, although I'm glad I got a decent one of him crowdsurfing (top right)



More Mac! and LCD Soundsystem top right (really love this one, probably just bc of how great they were)



boring ones of camp/arena :^/



classic festival sunset shot haha (+repeated scan)



nice shallow focus bottom right, glad I got a decent one of the flags bottom right



bottom right is a nice one of the flags, its just the "ROAST CHICKEN" sign that ruins it tbh. The sculpture in the bottom left was also really cool, shame I didn't get a better shot of it.



Pilton Palais tent, another cool stature, and a really nice one of the kids of some family friends (in matching waterproof dungarees!)



Before the crowd got in, and a really nice one taken by a 7yo family friend (honestly p jealous he took this)



skepta, he fucking killed it even though it was only like 2pm. top right is my favourite.

Some pics of mine I've really dug lately.

[alby]

tried some milky way shots and I think this is the only one that really turned out. it was a test shot, as I am going out again friday. I still think this was kinda cool. crazy how powerful cameras are.

@jon - not nearly as well as the camera, but you can see the outline of the cloud.

I know it's not the most spectacular picture but sunsets like this make me really happy to live in Arizona sometimes.

Ilford PanF 50


Ilford Delta 400

I was in nyc in july and again in september. the first time around I was still using my digital setup, pairing a zeiss 50/2 with the fuji x-e1. by the second trip i was loading portra 400 into an m6 with the same lense.
interestingly (to me, at least) i used the VSCO portra filter on the digital file while leaving the film untouched after development, just scanning it straight from the negative. I'm quite happy to abandon digital (again) and while the process is painstaikingly long compared to shooting on the m8 i was using for a short while, there's something more charming about not knowing what the photons have done to this sensitive strip rather than rushing to find out what the buzz of electricity was all about.





another shot i took which didn't end up quite as i had imagined. i was too close to the green construction barrier. but it was interesting to see the decay peaking through this little portal into the otherwise exuberant and really ostentatious city landscape.

speaking of digital, this is an interesting report.

a project from last summer documenting a nostalgic day out in british holiday resorts. i plan to take a lot more photos in 2017, i didn't really have the money to buy film and get it processed this year. i want to do a project on Morris Dancers, and the Lake District.














sorry for bare images! that was the whole photobook i made from it

[bels]

how did you make the photo book? It looks good

[surfdude69]

@bels i just laid it out on indesign then printed it on a regular xerox colour printer on ivory paper, then chopped off the white borders on each page. it's a bit rough and i've since gotten better at using a guillotine

[qalandar]

just scanend some TriX 400 on my epson :o

not my favorite for color-contrast landscape shots. in my opinion these become too busy with the microcontrast masking and exagerating the aesthetics of nature. i much prefer smoother subjects on b&w, either intrinsically or not (eg. mist/fog smoothing out the palette). in this case, the winding road is lost among the trees and rocky features, whereas.

Pictures from a camping trip at Guadalupe Mountains National Park last week
Sorry about there being so many, it's a really diverse place and I wanted to try my best to capture as many different sides of it as possible

[anth]
