Wayne, I really like this kind of photography. these places have something of lost places. A bit of sadness and loneliness and melancholy. Great work!!

Very nice Patrick. I'm often amazed how different a person looks from different sides. This could almost be two different persons.

Very nice!

 

 

A pleasingly captured scene.  Kennet & Avon?

 

 

Thank you both.

 

Keith, it's the Staffs & Worcester at a place called Newbridge on the edge of Wolverhampton.  This section was the first opened around 1774 and now forms part of a local nature reserve called the Smestow Valley.

Whilst awaiting delivery of my diptych monster (the gothic Pen f) I'm wondering whether an unmodified full frame camera would be up to the job. It would be nice to use the Leica M with the excellent glass, however diptychs look better with the black frame, IMO. Any pics to prove or disprove?

I'm awaiting mine as well, but would toss this in.

If the only reason to buy half frame is the diptych/triptych then simply "make" a black frame within Photoshop, and use the Leica(s).

Keith's M7 shots show it is just as effective, white frame and all.

Not the only reason, but a good one you must admit - it's about photographic narrative. Actually I ordered the camera prior to diptychs, that came later having read reviews, i.e. after the horse had bolted.

Personally - with emphasis on this particular word - I like seeing the inter-frame division between the two halves (in black having been inverted) either 3x2 or 2x3.

 

Edit: I wonder what the doctor would say with regard to using photoshop - I can only guess, but I'm fairly certain my guess would be close.

Right now, even with his scathing comments about "uncorrected" it would be good to have him back, the thread still rumbles on, but not like it used to.

 

But thinking back to the days well before Photoshop, I was known to print more than one neg onto a single piece of paper, effectively making the diptych etc. And we dodged/burned/cropped etc, so well before computers, we were correcting.

 

Having better than normal lenses just meant an extra step in the darkroom, normally stocking material in a frame held under the enlarger lens for part of the exposure, to give the soft glow, or petroleum jelly on a sacrificial filter to give the dreamy vignette.

 

Nothing really new.
