I really like this new direction of your artistry, Rog. Your choice of Redbird for this frame is perfect.

More photokina 18. There was an enormous focus on instant photography.

Both are fantastic Adam!

Love the dynamic of this scene. One can hear the sea...

 

Thanks, Marc.  I was thinking about another trip with a long lens and infrared film - we shall see whether that will work out!

Thanks, Adam. Astrum is basically Svema. I think Svema old equipment was bought by Astrum to produce fresh film. I had some quality problems with the last rolls but I like the look. 

I learned about this film from Wayne!

Very interesting, thanks for the explanation.

If you travel in Patagonia, you´ll see a lot of ice. This iceberg floats on Lago Grey, two days  walking from the Torres del Paine. On the day we arrived there, it was drizzling, windy and--near a huge glacier, cold. We were glad when the boat arrived.

Wow, that blue is stunning.  Really excellent photo, Klaus.  Inspiring as well!

Beyond stunning, Marc.  This shows how well you direct your subjects.

Notice here what happens with editing out the readily recognizable elements--the bucket handle, the electrical outlet--and moving the composition from a 3D perspective view to 2D flat color field abstraction. Still, the caution zone stripes intrude and create a dimensional 3D aspect, but it's artificial--or is it?--and catches the sensibility off guard, calling attention to the fact that this is manipulated space, albeit with pronounced textures that evidence photo-realism. In the color field abstractions I've been studying, I have tried to underplay textures to privilege colors themselves. I am intrigued by the notion of "transparency" and its implications and how this notion might be metaphorically visualized in art and photography. This is not something that Albers entertained beyond his teachings in color interaction. In critical circles, today, transparency envelops concerns that have to do with individuals' transparency in public and the rights to privacy eroded by data mining. Granted, it's an abstract arena, but there are very real issues being staked out with concerns over transparency protocols, Googlization, merchandising of personal data, preferences, and history.

Yes, blue is an alluring linchpin in our palette; Prussian blue, Cerulean blue, cobalt blue, manganese blue, French ultramarine, and then there's Prussian green, thank you Winsor and Newton.

Love it, Rog.  On the very top of your best IMHO

Really excellent, Steve.    Love that contrast and color scheme.

No, Adam, no tweaking apart from a shallow S applied. The false colours are attributed to the redscalling of the film (in a dark bag I reversed the film in the cassette), so the reverse side of the film faces the lens and the red layer gets exposed first.

Gotcha, and very impressive, indeed!

Impressive metallic sheen. Ridley Scott may like it as setting for his next Alien movie.

Oh Rog, you send me to the dictionary  more often than anyone else in this forum--thank you, food for thought and opening horizons.

Last of the  glacier-pics ; promised 😐

Glacier Grey, or part of it, seen from a boat.  The clouds opened for a few seconds and a shaft of light illuminated the front of the glacier. Seconds later the light was gone, the ship turned around and the show was over....

wow, perfect in every way!  Wish I were there with you!

Well, Klaus, I have been Googling, Binging, and Wiki-whatever-ing--swearing off all of them merchandising consumer footprints--and still wading through the favored Oxford English Dictionary, I can't get past the A's for the one word to describe your work here--AWESOME!
