In response to feedback from Christmas Assessment, over the holiday I tried out a number of different cameras, one being the Fujifilm GW670III medium format 'range finder' camera. It has a fixed lens, meaning it is incredibly sharp, and produces negatives that can be enlarged very big! So far, I have been very impressed with the quality of the images, and plan to continue shooting with it. I shot some black and white films, and some colour, but found the colour images were working best. All images have been scanned using a Flextight drum scanner and edited minimally in photoshop (in no particular order).
This week I have been scanning, editing, cropping, etc, to ensure the viewer is not distracted from what I am wanting them to focus on. I am now considering them as a series, and trying different sequences to find what works best. My favourite is the final set of images;
Our degree show proposal is due in over the next few weeks, so over the next week or so I'll be putting some more thought to that! Planning to go home sometime towards the middle or end of next week to shoot some more films.
