Time to show everyone my blog!

[RdEoSg]

Well I have been building it up for quite some time and redesigning it and such. I hope you all enjoy it. I don't updated it every day or anything, usually more like once or twice a month as it takes me a while to finish a roll of film, have it processed, and then scan the images!

Any comments are welcome on the images and if you have any comments on the blog itself you can post that here too!

Very nice work, what film do you like working with?

 

[RdEoSg]

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it!

Tony... er.. is that your name? I think so! I use Trix almost exclusively! I have shot the occasional shot with Tmax 100 but nothing scanned. All of the film shots there were Trix. I think a half a dozen maybe were taken with the Canon 5D and converted in photoshop.

Very nice! 🙂

Great layout, Chris. Very attractive.

 

[RdEoSg]

Thanks! It is based off of another persons design. He made the template and then I altered it to suit my needs and make it a bit different looking!

Nice work and lovely photos! I added the site to my blogroll at the Microraïon project ( http://www.microraion.com ) hope you'll get some visits! I adore the agave shot. bw rules!

 

[RdEoSg]

Thanks Max. I appreciate it! I will put a link on my site as well for you.

 

[darkkavenger]

No worries Chris. I will gradually add more blogs so that the project will not just live by itself, but will also be in a dynamic of sharing and discovery of other photographers' experiences 🙂

Cool, i like the layout. A lot better than mine. A lot clearer.

Chris,
Very nice work. It's been added to my much uglier rffblog, as an RSS feed.

You have some good stuff man! I love some of the lighting you've captured, "Lots O Wires" has to be the favorite one I have so far after looking for a bit.

I enjoyed the "Fox Theater" shot as well though, all those little white hard hats and the one dude paying enough attention to see you.

The Fox Theatre is an old 1920's movie house that we are trying to save in the city I live in. I am the official photographer for the foundation that is doing the renovation so I have complete access to the site! It was one of those once in a life time jobs and I fell into! Most of the work has been simply documenting the deterioration of the site and the step by step process of fixing it up. I want to get in there in the next few weeks and do some fine art work though!

Sounds like your roughing it with that job, 😉 Keep me updated on those shots, I like that kind of stuff.

Thanks a lot!

Peter, I will let you know. I usually make it in when they have work parties. I will be at PMA this weekend though so it will have to wait!

Random thought - I've been playing around with pixelpost myself, and am currently trying to customize it enough to figure out if I like it or not.

It brings up a classic photoblog dilemma, though. Photos by themselves? Or photos with text? You can always have a description, but what about the story of the photo? It's hard to say how to best do it, of course.

Hm.

I started off just doing a brief description but now I kind of tell the story of the photo. Whatever I may have been thinking about at the time etc. I dunno. I think the stories of photos are as important as the pictures themselves. The context.
