So, I am writing this posting from a bus traveling from New York City back home to Allentown. It’s becoming quite apparent to me that we’re living in a world that is becoming simultaneously more interconnected and more mobile at the same time. The bus I’m riding on has WiFi and I’m connected to myContinue reading “Photo Mobility”

salted paper prints
well after about a full day of curve design and some tweaks this morning, i finally got a curve that produces a fairly linear curve for salted paper prints. the salted paper process was invented by William Henry Fox Talbot, known as The Father of Modern Photography, in 1833 while he was on his honeyContinue reading “salted paper prints”

Ringing Rocks
this chaos is killing me just a few frames from what turned out to be the last roll we shot that day. shot on Ilford Delta Pro 400, pushed to ISO 800.
4 rolls later…
and with 2 of them dry, i was able to scan a few frames last night. this was shot out at beltzville again with Keira Grant. i think we were at 1/30th or 1/15th of a second with a mild breeze. so, there’s some motion in the young ferns.
