Below the Falls Mansfield Hollow B+W Film

12.18.2012 by Peter J. Crowley // 1 Comment

Nikon F-1971 1999 at Mansfield Hollow Dam. Jump forward a couple years and I brought this image in to the class I was teaching at New London Adult Ed. It was one of the images I used to lead the discussion on contrast. Everyone wanted to know how I did it? How long did it take? Few asked about post process but it was 2001 so my class was filled mostly with film people. My answer was 1/125 second, most chuckled and said really? I explained that I knew where the light was time of day and went there found my spot and shot 1 or 2 images this one printed easily in the darkroom probably took less time than scanning and adjusting the scan to meet the quality of the print. My PS Elements 10 wanted a color profile for everything is color and many of the functions in post process don’t work in gray scale [B+W]. Black and White prints are not about color they are an emotional visual poetry. No artificial emotion in my PS. and no edge like film. enjoy pjc

High Key Figure Study

02.07.2012 by Peter J. Crowley // 1 Comment

This image made on Ilford SFX that is a film that is Red sensitive so you shoot it through a RED 25 filter giving similar results to IR film. ISO 200 shot at 800 processed in Rodinal to produce a grainy effect almost to the point of a drawing. I love grain when used correctly.

Photographic Art Another High Key

More of Western Washington later today or tomorrow.
