That is a lovely shot Kev, those tones are so warm and the composition is first rate especially with the group of toadstools to the left almost like an audience.

This is a bit of a funny/weird one I took last year of a tree on one of my sites, and I wondered why I wasn't finding anything.......the evil eye.

Does this count?  Only black and white 'cause it was at night. The last total eclipse of the Moon.

Photo manipulation at it's......umm........best lol. Great portfolio Ceri but whatever happened to real photography....I'm getting old.

Post by: staterchaser on November 12, 2010, 06:42:27 PM
What's real? It's just replacing darkroom skills for Digital? Sold all my darkroom stuff on ebay last year, havent looked back!


Title: Re: BACK & WHITE PHOTO
Post by: Chef Geoff on November 12, 2010, 06:51:58 PM
Don't worry Ceri I'm only jealous as digital manipulation is something I am only just getting to grips with, but it does seem easier than the old skills. When I did my studio assistantship it was with a photographer called Sam Haskins who was a master in the darkroom and I just don't think that many of the digital experts that are out there now could even get close to perfecting something like Ansel Adams' zonal system. The skills have changed but I just feel that like many things they have got easier, which is never good news for the professional photographer.

Geoff, your Bang on! One good thing is that students studying photography in college now have to go through the darkroom process. They call it 'old school' frightening really as I feel it was only yesterday I was working under a safelight. I'm glad I experienced this process, and the so called fibre based digital paper nowadays is nothing like a hand printed black and white paper. All said, digital is a lot easier, healthier, cleaner and quicker. All the more time for me to dig some holes!
PS. Did you see the Tor pic? I was back down there last week to do some more images. Working on them now. Special place that!

Don't you miss the smell of ID11in the morning lol. Yes I saw the pics of the Tor, brilliant.
Special place? ummmmmmmm, well it is when you visit it, when you live here it seems like a special hospital at times lol
