Les Dix - My Entry for FADU 2010
My entry for FADU 2010 - Les Dix For the Exhibition Clematis and Dish This was one of a series I did on clematis flowers from my garden. I took various photographs during the life cycle of the flowers, most of them after taking them indoors and photographing in diffused sunlight. I have to give credit to John Blakemore’s darkroom book in which he described his tulip journey. This gave me the idea to attempt something similar with a different type of flower but I have a long way to go to produce the kind of work he did! This is the only one of the prints that was produced on fibre based paper. It was an added bonus that this appeared in the Silverprint Exhibition. Clematis Seed Head For the Book Winter Sun Paper Shapes Equipment Used If In case you want to know about the equipment etc I can say that the images were recorded on 35 mm Ilford film using a Minolta MD mount camera, except for Winter Sun which was taken on 120 Delta 3200 (hand held) using a Seagull twin lens reflex camera. Apart from ‘Clematis and Dish’ they were printed on Ilford resin coated paper. It was sad that the exhibition could not take place but I think having a book is an excellent way of showing the world that we produce good, traditional photography rather than just sit around talking about old cameras. For that reason, why not have a go at FADU 2011? Les Dix. Last edited by Dave miller; 1st February 2011 at 03:52 PM. |
