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

Sad news. My show at Great Falls Discovery Center came down on the 27th

Sorry due to a combination of weather scheduling and health I chose to take the show down on Thursday. Art is hard to move in torrential rain. So am I. To those who missed the show I am sorry.

The folks at Great Falls were wonderful hosts and I can’t thank them enough for working with me to arrange this exhibition. Their first communication to me came shortly after a long hospital stay and was just what I needed to push me to create. Thank you.

The Great Hall where monthly exhibits are shown, but this is not just a gallery it is a wonderful natural history museum with many speakers, programs and dioramas. It is a wonderful day trip or more if you look into the area lots of art and music venues. Thank you Laurel, Paul and the staff.
