Really love that foreground Lots to look at here, Philip. I don't know the city but it appears that you have captured a huge part of it. I'll bet the full res version are filled with details galore. LOL! Honestly, I was laid up with the flu all weekend and was praying that we wouldn't get the promised massive snow and miss out. That's probably why the forecast flopped... 😇 Oy! Hope you r feeling better. Good weekend to stay indoors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoop whoop! 🎉 At your suggestion, I just sent a proposal to Steidl and received back an automated email indicating that they are rarely accepting new books these given their capacity constraint. So it is probably a real long shot. Any other top notch publishers of photo books come to mind? I really have no idea... 😂 Thames & Hudson published HC-B's books and lots of others (Harry Gruyaert, Elliott Erwitt etc)... Aperture and Scalo/D.A.P. (The Americans) are both NYC-based and Phaidon has a pretty good selection of books.... If I were you I'd fire some shots towards publishers you'd like to work with then hustle them either until they get sick of you - or until they decide to set up a meeting. Your pictures are that good. I've been looking (a lot) at Saul Leiter's work and I think your best work is on a par. Great work BTW in immediately contacting Steidl! They would HAVE to be worth a phone call or further contact... They are all in it to make money, and great pictures of NYC SELL! Especially something as idiosyncratic as yours - I feel there'd be a rather wide audience with the right distribution. And best of luck with it all! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stray cat Posted January 24, 2019 Share #57536 Posted January 24, 2019 I just wanted to share that today I was able to visit the new Leica Store and Gallery in Melbourne. A very nice, spacious well set-out store, and a little oasis from the ridiculous heat we're experiencing. The inaugural exhibition, which finishes in a couple of days, is by Magnum identity Bruce Gilden - the first time he's been exhibited here according to the very charming store manager). Gilden spent nine days here back in 2011 photographing a local "colorful identity" (ie thug/gangster) with his M6 using Tri-X. The 30" X 40" prints are on Ilford glossy neutral-toned fibre-based paper and look absolutely fantastic. I was so pleased that their first exhibition turned out to be such a fillip for Leica analogue gear! A good time was had by all. https://lfi-online.de/ceemes/en/blog/bruce-gilden-at-the-leica-gallery-melbourne-1739.html 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it depends how much you like looking at grain. I have a 1m X 1.5m print of the following portrait at home (hanging in the garage which is the only place it will fit!) and I think it looks just dandy - the detail (eyelashes etc) holds together remarkably well. The print was made by our son James from the drum scan I've copied here - it was taken for an exhibition on the theme of homeless people my niece and I mounted as part of the Ballarat International Foto Biennale in 2011: Welcome, dear visitor!

philipus Posted January 24, 2019 Share #57539 Posted January 24, 2019 That is a very strong portrait Phil, and perfectly executed, well done. Have you done or considered doing a follow-up project of the persons you photographed? br Philip 3 hours ago, stray cat said: Oh, I don't know. I think it depends how much you like looking at grain.

Popular Post philipus Posted January 24, 2019 Popular Post Share #57540 Posted January 24, 2019 So last summer I am on the lovely island of Gotland returning home from a day at the beach and come across a marvellous large field of buttercups with a number of proud poppies scattered throughout. It's a truly fantastic scene made vividly colourful in the afternoon sun. Car screeches to a halt and out charges a photographer with various cameras, a tripod and a camera bag in hand. Oh boy oh boy oh boy, what a scene, is all that goes through my head. And then I get the film back and this is the result I must have forgotten to change the ISO when changing rolls and so underexposed by quite a bit. Plus the supreme beings of photography wherever they may be have also made sure to include a light leak at lower right (which thankfully and mysteriously has never since shown up again) and some big flare or something at top right. Nevertheless it's an interesting if strange photo. And I still have the vivid recollection in my mind so all was not lost after all. That Forrest Gump thing about a box of chocolate springs to mind.
