Scanned and inverted negative 4x5 direct print from camera.
Shooting Stats:
Shutter Speed: ???
Aperture: F/8
Bellows: 11 1/8th in.
Dist. from Subj: 22 3/4 in.
Processing Details:
Developed: 15 secs (yikes!)
Stop Bath: 1 min. 30 secs
Fix: 2 min.
The story with this print is that sometimes the shutter release cable gets a little stuck halfway to closing... well this time that happened and i didn't notice until looking into the lens and noticing the open aperture. So I'm not even remotely sure what the shooting speed is haha.

Skull 1
Scanned and inverted negative 4x5 direct print from camera.
Shooting Stats:
Shutter Speed: 2 secs
Aperture: F/5.4
Bellows: 13 in.
Dist. from Subj:21 in.
Processing Details:
Developed: 15 secs (yikes!)
Stop Bath: 1 min. 30 secs
Fix: 2 min.
This was my first real photograph from my 4x5 camera. (just getting the hang of it so far.) I was really worried when i put it in the developer and in less than 20 seconds it was rapidly getting darker and darker. There are a few chemical markings on the print but other than that and its being centered I'm pleased with it. :-)

Sub-Urban
7/17/2008
Scanned Print
Film type:
Ilford HP5 400 speed
Print on fibre paper
For this image I chose to make a diptych that contrasted the urban setting with the suburban setting. My favorite aspect about it is the shallow depth-of-field in the lower picture and the texture of the road’s surface.

Patco Ride
Scanned negative.
Film:
Ilford Delta 3200 speed film
Shot @:
Aperture: F. 11
Shutter: 1/125
This was my first time shooting with Ilford Delta B&W film and I absolutely loved it!
I know a lot of people who would prefer to shoot down around an ISO of 50 or even 25 because they absolutely hate grain. I, on the other hand believe there is always a place for any type of film out there, otherwise why wold they make it. Personally I enjoy taking shots in the city with higher speed films because i think the slightly visually unsettling qualities that accompany large gain work really well with my idea of the city. I grew up in a small town in the suburbs and ya know how they like to keep those areas as clean and pleasant looking as they can, well for me cities are the opposite. They've got this really down to earth, tough, dirty, nitty-gritty, appearance to them, and I love it! So whenever I go for a photo shoot in the city I always try and make sure i've got some 3200 speed film with me.
