Bonjour Henri,   I still prefer black and white film (I use almost no colour). The advantages of digital don’t mean much to me. Seeing instant results is not so useful, since what comes out of a cam

 I am finally in NYC as of yesterday and have developed all of my film.  Now I will be scanning constantly until I go back for the summer :)

Here's one from very close to the Dead Sea at the foot of a desolate road that leads to Jericho, known as the oldest city in the world.

Tabs
M-A APO 50 & Macro-Elmar-M
ADOX Color Implosion & E100

An early "sketch" in developing Tabs.  I broke the Josef Albers rules for transparency, mostly. Even so, I think it comes down to translucency. I don't know yet, but it seems that Albers was only using his camera for straight images, inventive early diptychs, but not color studies like his Homage to the Square series. I used walls and paper bags for this study.

What lovely colours and strong composition, Adam. I have a feeling that a computer screen doesn't quite do justice to the vast vista you photographed.

I'm learning so much from your studies Rog, thank you. One thing that struck me when I read for instance this piece about Albers's use of (imagined? apparent?) transparency and that rule was that it seems to be based on the premise that each field is one and the same colour. Perhaps it is a necessary premise, but to my uninitiated mind there is nothing preventing an artist from breaking or adjusting this premise. For instance, when I look at Tabs Diptych V2 it seems the grey field at right has more properties than just to desaturate, since it also 'lets through' the colour green while at the same time adjusting its saturation. And looking at V1 what's to say that the larger field at the right (the reddish brown) is evenly coloured? In fact, what is to say that it is even a two-dimensional field at all? It may be a three-dimensional field which is bent, curving up towards the viewer, at the left-hand side which, in turn, causes a darkening and the vertical band. Adding that third dimension to such studies may open up an infinite range of interpretations.

The sculpural power of the construction is renderd very impressively. Only the tree reminds me that this actually a building with a practical purpose and not a piece in an exhibition. 

 

Thanks a lot Klaus,

 

it is indeed a building. It's the Viadukt Herdecke. I visited Herdecke the first time last sunday and this viaduct is very impressive.

Regards Joerg

Very convincing James. Did you use  a polarizing filter to get the dark blue?

Very interesting superimposition if frames.  I think we need a “making of” video 🙂

Many thanks, Philip.  Yes it i s a shame that the image, which scanned to nearly 1GB, comes out so sh$tty

Thanks, Marc.  The colors are quite funky, indeed.  I think I am going to bring a lot of Portra 160 with me for the day time panos that I will take down there this summer.  Something to be said for the pastel earthy look...

I'm on a good way to overcome this bad habbit B) I use the digital world merely to stress you here with the silly snapshots from my boring vacations. Digital cameras are lying around somewhere in my house and will probably suffer boredom. Sometimes I can hear them cough under the growing heap of dust, though...
