benqui Posted August 28, 2020 Share #70981 Posted August 28, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) vor einer Stunde schrieb philipus: Pritam and Phil, thank you very much This is a truly fantastic photograph Christoph, very well done. And once more serendipity dips its toes into this thread by placing your and Marc's (also excellent) photos near each other. The selective focus on the subjects' faces is perfectly executed in both. One can even imagine that the girl would eventually grow up to look like the lady in Marc's photo so there's a temporal aspect at play here, too. As is so interesting with photos of children, yours has other aspects as well that elevates it even further. The shadowy characters in the background are a very cinematic if slightly ominous touch. Combined with the girl's pose, these blurry silhouettes and the fact that the girl is hindered by the glass make it seem as if she is trying to get away from something. Then there's the light on and perfect exposure of her face, which also Marc's photo shares. This is what ultimately makes the photo for me and lifts it out of the slightly darkish place that the background tries to pull us into. The girl is curious and confident and quite certain that everything will be alright. It is easily one of the best photos I have seen. Thanks a lot Philipus for your efforts to analyse our photos! I feel honored that you took the time to do it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernest Posted August 29, 2020 Share #70982 Posted August 29, 2020 4 hours ago, philipus said: It is easily one of the best photos I have seen. Christoph's work here jumpstarts an excursion into visual poetry, so metaphoric and labyrinthine in a kind of Lewis Carroll Alice in Wonderland watery world of exploration and rebirth. There is a quiet astonishment here, simultaneously ambiguous and specific. Chiasmus is a common rhetorical trope in which words or concepts are repeated in reverse order, ABBA, for example. "It's not how you mark the book, but how the book marks you." In literature, then, it's an artistic push and pull. Christoph's child searches in a dreamland, not so much threatened, but on the verge of discovery, epiphany, aha! Or, is she caught in a bend of time? This would make a killer one-sheet for a motion picture streaming near you, now. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Ricoh Posted August 29, 2020 Share #70984 Posted August 29, 2020 I’m looking for film with either a weak or non existent anti-halation layer. Any recommendations? PolyPan F 50 was ideal in this regard, but sadly withdrawn a good number of years ago. From my limited research there are very few remaining, one being Washi film F (used in medical analysis and having no halation layer). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The APX-100 that I used that day was, however, not very well suited to the rather dim light. The permanent "exhibit" at the entrance also caught a lot of my attention, and had better (=more) light. PS, I hope you and your loved ones survived the storm well! Welcome, dear visitor!

M5, 35 or 50, APX100 To simply echo words already penned about this photograph Christoph, would do the photo and you a disservice. But what has been said is true and honourable for this is a wonderful photograph. What I would love to see would be a print of this... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dike, sheep, sky and clouds. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! MP, 40C, Lomo Metropolis@100 I like it a lot Phil and being blessed with short memory I'm sure I've only seen it now. I've probably written it before but people in museums, to me, become part of the spectacle in some way and are a great subject for photography. This is a perfect example. You could build a woman of the two pictures on the wall by adding the left-hand one on top of the right-hand one. And then you'd almost get the lady in front. Only a very gifted photographic mind would sense this composition in the micro-second it takes to press the shutter button. On 8/28/2020 at 2:33 AM, stray cat said: Thank you for your thoughts, Rog. I am uncomfortably beginning to get dangerous thoughts about acquiring an "Eggleston special" myself - for that quality of camera, they can be had at a fairly reasonable price, all things considered. However by a stroke of good fortune I still can't afford one while Covid rules the earth! Please feel free to disregard this picture if I've posted it before. Taken at the William Eggleston exhibition in a different world way back in 2017 (during the Australasian One challenge, actually). The exhibition was absolutely wonderful - those dye transfer prints, including my favourite of the girl buying a ticket, really do seem to contain a righteous inner glow. Looking at these exhibited prints is a vastly different experience to looking at the same pictures in a book or even on a screen: ngv, melbourne 2017 M6TTL, 35mm summicron, tri-x Oh the troubled youth.
