W/NW: medium format street photography

Simon,
the image has to be uploaded in a gallery (like here) on the web. open your image, right click on it, choose properties, highlight the image address getting the whole address to the end .jpeg, copy then come back here and insert it between these brackets


good luck

Todd

my secret joy of a camera, Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Flash, with the lens reversed for effect:

traveling art exhibit, Tmax 100

citywide waterfight, Songkran/Thai New Year's, Fortepan 100

that Songkran shot's a cracker Rick!
Farrangs with high powered water guns blasting everyone in sight
just like that in Bangkok.
 
nice work everyone,
Stet, what does reversing the lens on the brownie do? The effect looks sorta "holga-ish", is that what you were after?

Thanks, Simon. It was madness here. Chiang Mai actually takes a whole week off for it. I first got soaked on Tuesday, and all the way through the next Tuesday. And a lot of times with moat water. eww.

Todd: Yeah, I actually did it on accident the first time, then googled to find out what the hell happened. It's a simple little one-piece plastic lens, and if you flip it so the convex side faces the shutter, it gives a focused center and it blurs out to the edges from there. I think the sweet spot is 6 feet away, giving you enough room to get a good, fairly close chunk in focus. Well, at least as in focus as a 50-year-old piece of plastic can give you.

Getting further OT, but here's a portrait, with Ektacolor 160:

Both, bewy nice.
 
If the camera is big & old-fashioned enough, I think you cross a threshhold where people find you to be a curiosity more than a threat.

Here's 1 of mine:

thanks, Allan. I had no idea that that camera wouldn't be that intimidating, to other people or me. =)
