jankap Posted February 22, 2023 Share #2 Posted February 22, 2023 I missed or cannot remember the numbers 1 to 13. The lens, the f-stop, etc, that were used, would interest me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been a member here for only a short time and it should be possible to track back to the others in the series under the 'People' category. PS I like to crop my images to a 5:4 aspect ratio if possible. Welcome, dear visitor!

jankap Posted February 22, 2023 Share #5 Posted February 22, 2023 Thank you, 35mm f/1.4. Porträt without much cropping. A nice format, I seldom use other than 3:2, 4:3. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A nice format, I seldom use other than 3:2, 4:3. Several years ago, I was privileged to attend a weekend workshop with a photographer named Giles Duley. He is an amazing photographer and an even more amazing human being, well worth investigating. Giles described 5:4 as his favourite format for portraiture and that has stayed with me. I also use a 4:3 camera and prefer that to 3:2 ratio, perhaps the latter requires more skill? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm another fan of Giles Duley. And, now that I have looked at your website, I remember where I heard your name before - that great Taylor-Wessing portrait!

Thanks Paul, that time spent with Giles, his endurance and humanity is permanently etched in my memory. That TW portrait continues to give, only two weeks ago Taylor Wessing said that they will pay the vast amount of £100 to hang it in their San Francisco office, apparently it has been on the wall in their London office for some time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An afterthought Paul given your interest in 8 x 10. During lockdown, my main discovery was a photographer who uses such a camera. Lovely guy and very interesting, his name is Robert Kalman - much to commend: https://www.robertkalmanweb.com 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started large format 4x5 in lockdown. I've only done a couple of portraits (the rest are landscape/streetscape), but I must try to do some more.
