#57 Sandy King Louisiana born and bred, lover and teacher of Spanish literature, citizen of the world, fine art printer, abstract landscape photographer…..oh and did I mention he also loved staining developers so much that he developed his own? I first became aware of Sandy King as, like many others, I began investigating Pyro staining developers. There is much, much more to Sandy than his work developing PyrocatHD and today we scratch away at the surface. Sandy's links http://www.sandykingphotography.com/ Things we chatted about on the show: As we are chatting I can see Erik Mathy moving his fingers over his keyboard as he sends links to us all via our messenger chat . He seems to be able to pick up on things the guest is saying, do the Google research and send the links over and still keep track of the conversation....clearly he isn't a proper male! http://meetingbenches.com/2020/03/the-perfect-past-jose-ortiz-echague-aesthetics-and-photographic-techniques-of-pictorialism-gum-bichromate-and-coal/?fbclid=IwAR1k9jt-bQqVNegLAwSzeC2BxdQAffWcToBAG_d14ipnyJk4wrYfOs9WGrE https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1144285.The_Keepers_of_Light_A_History_Working_Guide_to_Early_Photographic_Processes?fbclid=IwAR0PklWhjdNfcEg1xoVtEHpBJVYUEYVvBlMS2O5FJ1XiJ3hO57LpUp9tlXM https://groups.io/g/carbon?fbclid=IwAR2deRdt4MKE_ANQBbyE6k2u3Qp4TtCiR2H4E4sIYZbYG8a8FoLEL7QbSB4 https://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/?fbclid=IwAR0x1u-gqvqZ2rDcR5KLD7p7SXVh721RdV8LNy0SzxEaCjniRfdp29PXXd4 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Golden_Age_theatre?fbclid=IwAR2PPay1VXxeem_N5CiYQOw3IJG427SNqdE_fMIVdltX9Nb9AGfq2-f26LY Sandy mentioned Sam Wang a few times – I hope I have the correct person here – either way it's pretty interesting. https://www.alternativephotography.com/sam-wang-review/ Phil Davis, author of Beyond The Zone System is a book that I have but despite several attempts remains impenetrable to me. I was, therefore pleased that even Sandy struggled with it…..at least on the first read. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1751148.Beyond_the_Zone_System?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=tmCGIQZMnD&rank=1 Of course the much mentioned article by Sandy on Pyro developers which is available from his website. http://www.sandykingphotography.com/resources/technical-writing/pyro-staining-developers Also. http://www.sandykingphotography.com/resources/technical-writing/notes-on-pictorialism And PyrocatHD formula and notes from Unblinking Eye. https://unblinkingeye.com/Articles/Pyrocat/pyrocat.html LFPP links - https://largeformatphotographypodcast.podbean.com/ ko-fi.com/largeformatphotographypodcast You can join in the fun at our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2296599290564807/ And now our Flikr group curated by Colin Devroe https://www.flickr.com/groups/lfpp/ Get Twitter updates for the show from Andrew – https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Or from Simon – https://twitter.com/simonfor Email feedback, ideas and questions for the podcast largeformatphotographypodcast@gmail.com Podcast Hosts Social Media presence Simon Forster www.classiclensespodcast.com www.simonforsterphotographic.co.uk https://stores.ebay.co.uk/itsfozzyphotography https://www.flickr.com/photos/125323761@N07/ https://www.facebook.com/SimonForsterPhotographic/ https://www.instagram.com/simonforsterphotographic/ https://twitter.com/SimonFor Andrew Bartram https://anchor.fm/thelenslesspodcast https://andrewbartram.wordpress.com https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper_pinholes https://www.flickr.com/photos/warboyssnapper/ https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Erik Mathy A not updated website. https://www.erikmathy.com/about IG probably best for all things including rabbits. https://www.instagram.com/erikhmathy/?hl=en Stay Safe
#56 Erik & The Tubers Just over twelve months ago, Andrew and Simon were joined by the wonderful Jenny Sampson after being spotted on the front page of the relatively obscure BBC.co.uk website with a striking wet plate image. During an excellent discussion of Jenny's work, we touched upon and fell over Jenny's description of her collaboration with the Rolls & Tubes Collective; a group of photographers taking the inexplicable Covid related toilet roll shortage and recreating some of photography's greatest moments with bog roll. An excellent body of work was created and now Jenny along with Colleen Mullins, Christy McDonald and Nicole White have a sold out publication and success beyond their wildest dreams. To catch up the story, we've sent Erik all the way to California to delve deeper into the project and relive the journey.

Kelly-Ann Bobb is an analogue freelance photographer based in the twin island state of Trinidad and Tobago. She has always had a natural inclination towards creativity. After completing medical school, she fell in love with the unending complexities of film photography. She utilizes photography as a tool of unmasking, telling stories that would not otherwise be told. Revealing as much of herself as the subjects she photographs. Kelly's links https://www.kellyannbobb.com/ https://www.instagram.com/kellyannbobb_photography/ Things we chatted about on the show: We spent a fair part of the time talking about two of Kelly's projects that have received widespread acclaim.“Home Alone” and “Sacred Bodies and the Divine” – go to Kelly's IG page to see examples. https://www.tokyofotoawards.jp/winners/social/2020/Sacred-Bodies-1/ https://www.lensculture.com/search/projects?q=kelly-ann+bobb The “Home Alone” project was born out of lockdown and explores how we handle solitude – its more than that so listen to the show as Kelly explains it better. Gum Oil printing – Kelly shared her experiences and love for all things alternative print making. Both Kelly and Erik recommend the work of Anna Ostania for all things gum oil. https://annaostanina.com/?fbclid=IwAR15CjB-AIrjIBK6Rj3BkRAkgEBCA7cukNciL7uprBqtQ1k6kgQ_NpNursE We had a fascinating conversation about how traditional colour film was balances around pale Caucasian skin. Erik (good old Erik) found an interesting link. https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2014/04/16/303721251/light-and-dark-the-racial-biases-that-remain-in-photography?fbclid=IwAR0shj8MYLWYNS5B4tFfFrDE3v2Fwas2XD9GAp1zsq103EgqBKk4TBprMnQ&t=1628581073284 And Gordon Parks. https://www.gordonparksfoundation.org/?fbclid=IwAR3Mb8WapxD6ex1FZXgiyJ1q7F6kkcDcpzXRlFu1RJY9PXrA-4qCGjtZMZ0 We got talking about photographing in a hospital environment – here are some good books to check out. https://eugenerichards.com/the-knife-and-gun-club/?fbclid=IwAR2ea5luIXeEeudN0a_Y_POV2IjRozyBYC2HhfeXW8Y_4cgABxHRc6vEX-A https://www.staticage.co.uk/post/all-in-a-day-s-work-by-david-collyer Some other Erik Mathy links. https://www.instagram.com/joelymanphotography/?fbclid=IwAR2wnegoVISQnMtKdS3p9BBpbV3OQLRYFMslitl6ZAMq8oiNfKSUeapTUos - well one to be precise.

Just the three of us this week as we recover from the trip to Dave Shrimpton's house. This was meant to be more of an email show but there was really only one we could read out and that was just a brilliant one from Pakistan based visual artist Jahanzeb Haroon. Things we chatted about on the show: Andrew kicked off the discussion with “what we've all been up to”. Shamefully but rationally explained, no LF work from him for ages. The darkroom extension has been an all consuming project and with the first paying workshop customer coming in August the pressure has been on to at least get it functional, and it is now. Returning from a holiday in Northumberland Andrew has a number of rolls of fil m to develop including 4 or 5 127 films, some HP5 and a roll of expired Astia that he exposed in his Toyo 45a with the 6x17 back. The question goes begging “do we or should we take large format gear on a family holiday”? Another reason for not exposing too much LF film recently is the need to nail down rotary processing in his Jobo CPE2 or the new variable speed rotating base recently received from Student Photo Store on ebay. Settling down to PyrocatHD and ID111+1 will reduce the creative choices, and darkroom is needed to play around. Earlier in the year Mat Marrash posted a video all about determining your own personal film speed and “normal” developing time using a Stouffer TP45 step wedge, after years of doing this by trial and error Andrew has taken the plunge and ordered a step wedge. Mat's video and a link to the Stouffer site below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pN-LM1lM8Kg&t=1005s https://stouffer.net/Photo.htm#:~:text=Stouffer%20Craftsmanship%20Transmission%20Projection%20%28TP%29%20Step%20Wedges%20are,concept%20used%20when%20approaching%20the%20art%20of%20photography. Both Erik and Simon have been up to way more exciting things, actually exposing and playing around with LF film and paper. Erik has been deep diving into lens building with Bronica ETRS lenses and more (see Erik's IG site below). Erik posted into the LFPP Facebook group ongoing work with Faux Orotones with some lovely results. The Orotone process was made famous by Edward Curtis and more info can be found on line (OK Wikipedia to the rescue) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orotone Erik is looking for a similar effect using gold spray paint and it works really well. Simon has been busy using his Chroma camera both in and out of the studio with some expired velvia and, in the 6 towns studio, some Harman Direct Positive paper. We have a chat about the challenges of using HDP and its limited tonal range (high contrast). The Ilford PDF data sheet and a recent Ilford video presented by Rachel Brewster-Wright are very helpful if you are thinking of using this great paper for the first time. https://www.ilfordphoto.com/harman-direct-positive-paper-sheets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFUSiRwfOHs On the subject of film speed testing friend of the show Billy Sanford recently appeared on the Sunny 16 presents show and talked about his experience with a Richard Pickup approach to film speed testing – he actually cited our LFPP interview with Richard as inspiration. https://sunny16presents.podbean.com/e/on-location-the-goldilocks-negative-with-billy-sanford/ LFPP listener and FB member Jahenzeb Haroon sent in a lovely email talking all about analogue photography in Pakistan, it's a great email and do check out Jahenzeb's work which he produces very much against the odds. We take off our collective hats and not in his direction. https://www.instagram.com/junk.lab/ And this link all about one of Pakistan's oldest photography practices that is still going. https://www.globalvillagespace.com/zaidis-photographers-pakistans-majestic-kaliedoscope/?fbclid=IwAR3nBFNa8cvo6sJvdxDykAR0MziXteY0Ep05OiOItZHQ5adntspdyGXhkWM LFPP links - https://largeformatphotographypodcast.podbean.com/ ko-fi.com/largeformatphotographypodcast You can join in the fun at our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2296599290564807/ And now our Flikr group curated by Colin Devroe https://www.flickr.com/groups/lfpp/ Get Twitter updates for the show from Andrew – https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Or from Simon – https://twitter.com/simonfor Email feedback, ideas and questions for the podcast largeformatphotographypodcast@gmail.com Podcast Hosts Social Media presence Simon Forster www.classiclensespodcast.com www.simonforsterphotographic.co.uk https://stores.ebay.co.uk/itsfozzyphotography https://www.flickr.com/photos/125323761@N07/ https://www.facebook.com/SimonForsterPhotographic/ https://www.instagram.com/simonforsterphotographic/ https://twitter.com/SimonFor Andrew Bartram https://anchor.fm/thelenslesspodcast https://andrewbartram.wordpress.com https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper_pinholes https://www.flickr.com/photos/warboyssnapper/ https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Erik Mathy A not updated website. https://www.erikmathy.com/about IG probably best for all things including rabbits. https://www.instagram.com/erikhmathy/?hl=en Stay Safe

Simon, Andrew and Yevgeni venture out on their first LFPP outside broadcast. Unfortunately Erik couldn't get a ticket across the Atlantic so we had to use a naked female shop dummy as an able replacement. After two previous attempts we arrive at the wonderful imaginarium where Dave eats, sleeps and breathes creative photography. For part 2 we are mostly in the darkroom where the magic is revealed and the Tintypes of Dave come out pretty darn well. What a brilliant day we had and both of us are hooked. Things we chatted about on the show: Dave works closely with Jeff Perry who has helped him bring his photographic equipment vision to reality and Andrew will be using his 4x5 back and wetplate insert in pt 2 https://20thcenturycamera.com/ Dave goes out of his way to shop locally where he can for his film and chemical supplies.

Doctrine and Covenants 58:2 For verily I say unto you, blessed is he that keepeth my commandments, whether in life or in death; and he that is faithful in tribulation, the reward of the same is greater in the kingdom of heaven. There are really 3 parts to this scripture that I would like to discuss. 1. blessed is he that keepeth my commandments 2. whether in life or in death 3. he that is faithful in tribulation, the reward of the same is greater in the kingdom of heaven Blessed is he that keepeth my commandments Commandments are divinely given rules to follow. And why do we even have them in the first place? For sure we will be judged by them at the great and last day. But surely, there is more to it than just a list of rules to follow just to follow them? If you follow the footnotes it takes us to Psalm 19:9–11 9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. 11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. The fact that the judgments or the commandments being judged upon are desired more than fine gold or sweet honey, is very instructive.

#50 Deborah Parkin An introduction from Deborah’s website. “I live with my family & animals in the beautifully wild North Pennines. My work is rooted in family life & my environment - past & present. I have been photographing for many years & use a variety of mediums - from large format to digital & processes such as Wet Plate Collodion, bromoil, albumen, cyantotype & silver gelatin. My work has been exhibited & published worldwide - including Japan, U.S. U.K, Bulgaria, Iran & China & is held in many private collections from individual collectors (U.S, U.K, Europe, Japan) to museums & galleries - including the Fox Talbot Museum (UK) & the Centre for Fine Art Photography (U.S) & Charlet Gallery (Paris). My books are published by Galerie Vevais”. Things we chatted about on the show: In between talking about Deborah’s life, her past, memories and how they impact her work we discussed so many other influences and hopefully most of them are here.

Now that we don’t have the “bar room” chatter at the beginning of each show these occasional catch up shows allow us to update each other on all that we’ve been up to large format wise, or not, as the case may be. So no guest but, “dang” we enjoyed shooting the breeze and the welcome return of “Ask Erik”. Things we chatted about on the show: Andrew has been in a bit of a photo slump for a few weeks now, and that’s really odd as it’s completely out of character. Dr Erik tries to diagnose his problems. Both Andrew and Erik have been playing around with previous guest Jason Lane’s excellent dry plates. Andrew has been using the ISO 25 (shot at ISO 6) 1/6th (easier to type it than say it) plates in his Rolleiflex and developing with ID11 1+1 with minimal agitation to give some control over contrast. Seems to be working well which is more than can be said for his attempts so far with 4x5 ISO 2 plates – still more light needed methinks but we discuss some hints and tips. Erik has started a little project photographing cars on driveways in his new neighbourhood as a commentary on all things American (way too deep for Simon and Andrew but we humour him). You can find out all about Jason’s plates here, where to buy them and lots of useful technical detail to help get best results (which Andrew needs to read apparently). https://www.pictoriographica.com/ Simon, surprise, surprise, has been buying more cameras this time it’s a Polaroid roll film camera that he will be converting to take 4x5 sheets. Lots of folk convert these cameras but Simon is ignoring all their advice and ploughing his own furrow so we look forward to how that turns out. Erik mentioned a Thingyverse downloadable set of files for 4x5 conversion – a really great website where you can purchase the thing as a kit if you don’t have access to a 3D printer. https://film.kolve.org/3ddesign/3d-design-polaroid-110-to-4x5-conversion-kit/?fbclid=IwAR2Bngul7kjpMMcMoJqeacujr3KfURzcJlcWr7Mg-1v-7jBf3JeYIz3vCzs Simon also purchased a French enlarger lens to use on his graphic camera (maybe) – a Boyer Saphir. These series of lenses are M39 mount and are named after a variety of precious stones (don’t ask). https://galerie-photo.com/boyer-lens-optic.html?fbclid=IwAR1weHjMeJR9kA6V2JkDYPR2ZoIQz6CA-xt2QsmfEckDoWhyL1X2yUkkTQ8 Andrew mentioned David Lago de Montana from the RB67 FB group who is making Instax Square backs for the RB – OK not LF but it formed part of a discussion around 4x5 conversions.

We review them, looking for nuggets of wisdom and even share a few of our own lessons as we dig into President Hinckley’s life lessons. https://spiritualcrusade.com/2021/04/9-some-lessons-i-learned-as-a-boy-gordon-b-hinckley.html Check us out at https://spiritualcrusade.com/ YouTube and Podcast Channels YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/spiritualcrusade?sub_confirmation=1 Come, Follow Me Study - Podcast Channel: https://anchor.fm/comefollowme Podcast Channel: https://anchor.fm/spiritualcrusade Social Media Links Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/spiritualcrusade/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/spiritualcrusade/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spiritualcrusade/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/spiritualcrusad Tumblr: https://spiritualcrusade.tumblr.com/ Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/152962925@N07/
Although not as cool as David Burnett (according to Greg Obst), nevertheless we thoroughly enjoyed chatting with the unique (if not cool) Nico Llasera. Nico has been bringing us the weekly film photography photo news since 2015 and alongside his spin off “Super film support” channel they are must watch You Tube shows. Things we chatted about on the show: How the channel came about (episode 1 from November 2015 is an interesting watch to see how the show has evolved over the years). Nico will be joining the Kamerastore team later in the year so he will be relocating to Finland. You can check out their website and blog. https://kamerastore.com/ We chatted a bit about Orwo film, Reveni Labs and Jobo. https://www.orwouk.com/ https://www.orwo.family/ https://www.reveni-labs.com/ https://www.jobo.com/ecms.php?ecms_lang=EN Nico brought up the New Topographic work of Nicholas Nixon who is also well known for making annual 8x10 portraits of his Wife and her Sisters. https://fraenkelgallery.com/shop/artist/nixon-nicholas Nico’s links Nico’s website with links to YouTube, a route to ask questions and to support Nico’s activities. https://superfilmsupport.com Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/nicolasllasera/ Twitter. https://twitter.com/Nicolasllasera Other News Shrug LFPP links - https://largeformatphotographypodcast.podbean.com/ ko-fi.com/largeformatphotographypodcast You can join in the fun at our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2296599290564807/ And now our Flikr group curated by Colin Devroe https://www.flickr.com/groups/lfpp/ Get Twitter updates for the show from Andrew – https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Or from Simon – https://twitter.com/simonfor Email feedback, ideas and questions for the podcast largeformatphotographypodcast@gmail.com Podcast Hosts Social Media presence Simon Forster www.classiclensespodcast.com www.simonforsterphotographic.co.uk https://stores.ebay.co.uk/itsfozzyphotography https://www.flickr.com/photos/125323761@N07/ https://www.facebook.com/SimonForsterPhotographic/ https://www.instagram.com/simonforsterphotographic/ https://twitter.com/SimonFor Andrew Bartram https://anchor.fm/thelenslesspodcast https://andrewbartram.wordpress.com https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper https://www.instagram.com/warboyssnapper_pinholes https://www.flickr.com/photos/warboyssnapper/ https://twitter.com/warboyssnapper Erik Mathy A not updated website. https://www.erikmathy.com/about IG probably best for all things including rabbits. https://www.instagram.com/erikhmathy/?hl=en Stay Safe
Self-portrait artist, studio portrait photographer, pinhole enthusiast, camera builder and enthusiastically inquisitive about all things photographic sums up today’s guest. Based in Montreal, Canada Nicole loves nothing more than to be out making (usually) large format pinhole self-portraits with cameras she builds herself, usually from foam core and tape – it’s all about the love of creating the image. Things we chatted about on the show: Using a pinhole camera for portraits with a longer “focal length” triggered an interesting conversation. There are some excellent resources including the Mr Pinhole site which is invaluable if you are thinking of making your own pinhole portrait camera. http://mrpinhole.com/ Friend of the show Jason Lane came up a few times as Nicole, Erik and Andrew are all trying to get to grips with his wonderful J Lane dry plates. https://www.pictoriographica.com/ Go to Jason’s website for useful info on using the plates under differing lighting conditions. We go into some discussions about reversal processing, Nicole uses potassium dichromate bleach followed by exposure to light then fixing and second development.

Telling the story of the Exodus is something so simple that we do it every year, and so complicated that we never get it quite right. With all the effort we put into preparation for a kosher Pesach, it is worth dusting off the Haggadah a couple of weeks early in or to prepare for an awesome Seder. Author Mark Gerson joins me to discuss his new book about the Haggadah and how we can best access its energy and wisdom. Photo Credit: https://www.flickr.com/photos/160866001@N07/48228219311
When the USA National Park Service advertised for a large format photographer to come and work for them there were 4,500 applicants. Jarob Ortiz sent in his resume and, along with 18 others got through to interview stage and landed the dream job. Things we chatted about on the show: Before landing the job Jarob was already photographing historic buildings for his personal work – the town of Gary in Indiana for example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary,_Indiana#National_Register_of_Historic_Places We discussed the latest on the Reveni Labs spotmeter on Kickstarter now massively over subscribed but (as I type) still active. https://www.reveni-labs.com/spotmeter We discovered that it’s really hard to see much of Jarob’s work for the Park Service in a digital form as they are a tad behind on the scanning front but you can go look at all sorts of interesting things at the Heritage Documentation Program site. The permanent collection of architectural, engineering and landscape documentation at the Library of Congress consists of measured and interpretive drawings, large-format black and white and color photographs, written historical and descriptive data, and original field notes. The collection captures the American experience through approximately 40,000 recorded historic structures and sites, from American Indian cliff dwellings at Mesa Verde to space-age technology at Cape Canaveral. https://www.nps.gov/HDP/coll.htm Although I was sceptical, there is a really interesting FB page too. https://www.facebook.com/HeritageDocumentationPrograms We didn’t get to talk lenses which is odd but we did chat a bit about apparently clever digital cameras called Phase one (Simon seemed to know something about them). https://www.phaseone.com/en/ After the show, Jarob mentioned to us that he would have liked to have answered a question that we did not ask, so here's the question and answer; What advice do you have for large format photographers? It's great to draw inspiration from famous photographers and their technique, but it's far more important not to chase them. Everyone has their own approach, all of which is unique to that individual based upon their life experiences and the personality as a result. Like in my case.... People calling me "the next Ansel Adams" - give me a break! I'll never be Ansel Adams. Ansel was a master of the craft; a man that revolutionized the photographic process with his Zone System approach. I'll never be that. All we can do as photographers is workhard and hold ourselves to a higher standard and someday (hopefully) we'll be noticed.

When Reveni Labs launched the Kickstarter for their innovative hot shoe mounted meter a couple of years ago it very quickly reached its funding goal. It was therefore no surprise that Matt’s latest Kickstarter was funded within 2 hours. Things we chatted about on the show: A fair chunk of time was spent answering some great emails from listeners and all four of us had things to say. Billy Sanford wrote to us following up our recent discussion around the need (or not) to post to social media and we kicked that around a bit more. Michael Wellman sent in a great email , although we think he meant to send it to our good friend Matt Marrash , all about image circle. We focused all our joint knowledge and realised it didn’t add up to much but we had a stab at making some relevant points. A couple of great books that cover this in some detail are: Using The Viewcamera by Steve Simmons. And View Camera Technique by Leslie Stroebel . Aforementioned Matt Marrash put out a video covering this; https://youtu.be/XkJ__N1Kl4M Chris King wrote to us with some suggestions for LF press photographers, thanks Chris they are on our radar. Simon draws our attention to the interview on Grainy Dayz Podcast with Frank Thorp. https://anchor.fm/grainydayz/episodes/Frank-Thorp-V-gives-us-the-report-e9f4hp/a-a153jq0 Tim Holmes draws us back to our “naval gazing “ episode which led to more chatter and then lastly Michael asked about our hard to find Ko Fi page. Here is the link. https://ko-fi.com/largeformatphotographypodcast Eventually we get around to introducing Matt who gets Andrew very excited with talk of his innovative spot meter launching on Kickstarter.

Talking Classic Talks: #7 - Do Not Fear by Boyd K. Packer YouTube and Podcast by: Kevin Boehmer and Todd Bruce In this Episode, Kevin and Todd discuss a talk from 2004 called Do Not Fear by Boyd K. Packer. In it, President Packer discusses the past, present and future situations which did and will instill fear, anxiety and stress, but reminds us that we have the power to choose to remember that God is in control.

We were honoured to spend time with David and his wife Jackie for this show. What a life! Read and see more here: https://www.apogeephoto.com/octogenarian-photographer-extraordinaire-david-johnson/?fbclid=IwAR2gPD4veOTjGF_HJn3NVMY19cEH7gppmsBnZIxPVh4FJZgZLnDu4Igian8 Things we chatted about on the show: Erik kicked things off by updating everyone on the progress he has made constructing the wooden barrelled lens for Alana Airitam (see show #39). David grew up in segregated Jacksonville and then after a stint in the Navy ended up in segregated San Francisco where he photographed what was known to him, and available to him, the citizens of Fillmore. When David was accepted into the California School of Fine Art it was none other than Minor White https://www.moma.org/artists/6342 who told him how to get the best from his newly acquired 4x5 camera and then encouraged him to make photos of what he knew. David was part of the “Golden Decade” of photographers – here is an interesting article but you will find more if you search around. https://landscapephotographyblogger.com/tag/golden-decade/ When David came out of the Navy he was assisted as a “GI Bill” artist https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.I._Bill a scheme that continues to operate to this day giving financial assistance to veterans wanting to pursue a career in the arts. During segregation in SF black artists could perform but not stay at the Fairmont Hotel – here is a Wiki entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairmont_San_Francisco David’s links See David’s work at the Library of Congress and the Harvey Milk Photo Centre in SF. https://www.harveymilkphotocenter.org/ https://www.loc.gov/pictures/related/?fi=name&q=Johnson%2C%20David%20S.%2C%201927-&fbclid=IwAR3ZQiFDvFCA9GPzgHJcjv5TADn14akpTIVDieIo5ZdkzDYfOsJA35b1sP4 David’s work is featured in the book from the exhibition of the Golden Decade Photographers. https://www.abebooks.co.uk/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=22447813230&searchurl=isbn%3D9783869309026%26n%3D100121503%26sortby%3D17&cm_sp=snippet-_-srp1-_-title1 Other News None to speak of…..

Eric, Andrew and Simon together for the first proper podcast of the New Year, a time for reflection and looking ahead. Things we chatted about on the show: Andrew got a bit philosophical about the addictive nature of social media and to post or not to post and why. Eric thanked folks for showing up to his world premier (in the LFPP FB group) of his slow riding picture taking film. “Amish” Gill and 35mmc came up somewhere and Simon talked about lens mounts for large format photography “wot he is making” – for barrel lenses, projector lenses etc. Bar room chat, how do we still incorporate that part of the show now that there are four of us. Diversity – not for “diversity’s sake” but to force us to widen our perspectives and, quite frankly, not to have too many guests who look and sound like us! Other News None to speak of.

Talking Classic Talks: #6 - Finishers Wanted by Thomas S. Monson YouTube and Podcast by: Kevin Boehmer and Todd Bruce In this Episode, Todd and Kevin discuss Thomas S. Monson’s 1974 talk titled Finishers Wanted. In it, a young Elder Monson uses examples from the Bible of great people who fell short in life, and great people who finished strong despite life’s challenges. He encouraged each of us to hold the faith and win the day. He listed several attributes that each finisher has and how we can develop them in our lives.

Andrew and Simon were all set to see out the year in peace and quiet but a voice from across the pond just wouldn’t let us rest. Kicking and screaming we were dragged from our respective bunkers to record one more show. Erik and Andrew were “on camera” but Simon chose to be the all seeing “Eye of Sauron” , and why not. Things we chatted about on the show: Although we had planned to spend some time discussing the future direction of the Show Andrew and Eric took up so much time at the beginning we ran out of time, apparently Erik has a proper job that he sometimes has to go to. Andrew was excited to talk about his new Chroma Snapshot camera from the super clever Steve Lloyd of Chroma Camera – check it out and much more here https://chroma.camera/snapshot/ Simon tried to shoe horn is new Chroma Carbon Adventurer into the conversation but we all agreed it was far too orange to discuss in detail. Along with the new Snapshot is coming in the post a Schneider Anngulon 90mm f6.8 which is a teeny weeny lens that just about covers 4x5 and is an ideal companion to the snapshot for handheld LF photography. Thanks to Ben Reynolds https://www.facebook.com/BadBeard or Ren Beynolds as his may be known as well for sending Andrew a Grafmatic film holder which will also pair up nicely with the Snapshot. Somewhow we moved on to barrel lenses and projector lenses. All three of us I think have the Leitz 200mm f3.6 mounted for 4x5 and whilst this set up is OK for paper negatives we eagerly await a commercial barrel lens shutter system like the one the aforementioned Steve Lloyd is developing. Erik spoke about the lack of creative spaces in the Bay Area where he lives and the need for such spaces where photographers and printers can gather, use darkrooms, compare prints and generally hang out. Simon tried to convince us that the Six Towns Darkroom in Stoke on Trent , England was such a space but we all agreed it just doesn’t have the weather. Simon gave a shout out to the spin off podcast “Sunny 16 Presents” and especially show all about Caffenol – here is a link https://sunny16presents.podbean.com/e/on-location-caffenol-with-christian-strauf-and-jonathon-becker/?fbclid=IwAR0_DZ5eqh6_BHnVVw9GLMZlLH4aVpKTHxzBDhdp3KaTaQ-xg2Z_Q6KZpLs And finally join us on January 2nd for an exclusive LFPP FB Group screening of the Adobe Create documentary made all about Erik and his epic bicycle ride with a LF camera and dollar bill lens “Ride Slow, Take Photos”. Other News The Six Towns Darkroom was OPEN but is now CLOSED as Stoke enters Tier 3 Covid restrictions.

Talking Classic Talks: We Can Do Better and Be Better YouTube and Podcast by: Kevin Boehmer and Todd Bruce In this episode Kevin and Todd discuss the General Conference talk by Russell M. Nelson entitled, ‘We Can Do Better and Be Better!’ The talk reminds us that we have room for growth and repentance plays a huge role in that! When we choose to repent, we choose to change! When we choose to repent, we choose to be more like Jesus Christ! The world could use a lot more of that! So choose to do better and choose to be better!

From a recent interview with Intrepid Camera. “Nick Brandreth is the Historic Process Specialist at the George Eastman Museum, where he runs workshops that teach people how to create images using photographic techniques that span the whole of the medium’s history. The workshops provide alternative methods of creating images as opposed to simply buying consumer film for people who want to get their hands dirty. “With a lot of photography pre-1900, everything was made by hand,” Brandreth says. “You'd go out and purchase chemicals and mix 'em together and make your own material. And there was a culture, at the beginning of photography, where everything was made by hand. I think people like that.” Brandreth’s hands-on approach naturally suits the experimentation that large format photography offers. With the right attitude, the possibilities really are endless. “Because of the beauty of large format, you can Frankenstein a different lens with the camera and make your own format sizes,” Brandreth says. “It's the best. It's actually cheaper for me now because I have the skills and know-how, so I just make my own emulsion and all I have to pay for is raw material.” https://intrepidcamera.co.uk/blog/nick-brandreth-s-large-format-phantasmagoria Things we chatted about on the show: Nick attended a workshop at the George Eastman Museum on historical processes with Mark Osterman who we seem to mention every show – here is an interview by Robert Gojevic. https://www.robertgojevic.com/mark-osterman/ Soon after this Nick found himself working as Mark’s apprentice at the museum and now teaches anyone who cares to listen through workshops in person or, increasingly these days, via social media. Nick’s recent work was informed by the historic “horror theatre” known as Phantasmagoria – Wikipedia comes to the rescue yet again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantasmagoria The full interview with Intrepid Camera can be read and seen here. https://intrepidcamera.co.uk/blog/nick-brandreth-s-large-format-phantasmagoria And all the images on Nick’s website. https://www.nickbrandreth.com/Seeing%20Shadows/ Nick’s earlier work after leaving college where he studied photojournalism, was influenced by the work of, amongst others, Eddie Adams (you will know the image of the Vietnam Police officer shooting a Vietcong member in the head in the street). https://www.eddieadamsworkshop.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Adams_(photographer) If you have any questions about emulsion making then speak with Nick as he has mastered numerous techniques inspired by Ron Mowry and Nick tells the story of his now hard to find book at the end of the show. http://stores.photoformulary.com/photographic-emulsion-making-coating-and-testing-book-by-ron-mowrey/ If you don’t want to make your own emulsion you can buy it from a number of sources. Andrew uses (with mixed success so far) the Rollei Black Magic Nick mentions. If you are in the UK you can get it from Nova Darkroom and various others. Mel Digiacomo was a mentor to Nick as he strived to express his photojournalist voice. Here is a YouTube video to watch when you have a spare hour or so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHRoOMZjoE0 Erik spoke of Ed Drew’s Afghanistan LF work. https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/photography-blog/2013/jul/22/photography-art And last but not lease Andrew bought a cool looking Chroma Camera Snapshot and Simon bought a Chroma Carbon Adventurer that is mostly orange. https://chroma.camera/product/snapshot-classic-edition/ https://chroma.camera/product/carbon-adventurer-carbon-fibre-technical-field-camera/ Nick’s links Instagram seems to be the place where you can get the best sense of what Nick is up to on a day by day basis. https://www.instagram.com/nickbrandreth/ To see his “Seeking Shadows” and other work we touched on in the show go to his website. https://www.nickbrandreth.com/Home/ Other News The Six Towns Darkroom was OPEN but is now CLOSED as Stoke enters Tier 3 Covid restrictions.

“A traditional photographer, Jim specialises in monochrome Carbon Transfer Contact Printing from in camera negatives. Carbon Transfer printing, a process perfected by Joseph Swan in 1864, is a highly labour intensive process that yields prints of the finest quality. The artist has total control of the image tonality due to the creative blending of pigments used to manufacture the carbon tissue which is used to complete his vision. From this tissue the image is born. Carbon prints require a minimum of four or more days work to produce one finished print. Truly a labor of love and passion. Jim teaches carbon transfer printing and offers workshops in his studio/darkroom at his home in Vancouver Washington”. Things we chatted about on the show: Jim got his inspiration from his friend Vaughn who runs workshops with Jim in Yosemite National Park. http://vaughnhutchins.com/ Making negatives from PyrocatHD a very popular staining developer much favoured by all who use alternative photographic processes. Andrew uses Wet Plate Supplies for ready mixed PyrocatHD here are some links. https://www.pyrocathd.5x4.co.uk/ http://www.wetplatesupplies.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=pyrocathd&x=0&y=0 For more on Carbon Printing, and indeed Pyro developers check out Sandy King’s site. https://sandykingphotography.com/resources/technical-writing/carbon-transfer-process We discussed cinematographer Karl Struss and the unique look he got from lenses (soft focus) and he was very close to Alfred Stieglitz and the pictorial movement. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Struss Mark Osterman of Eastman House keeps getting mentioned and again in show 40. https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-osterman-04594b2a Erik has mentioned Kelly-Shane Fuller before, he was the chap who managed to get Kodachrome to sort of come back to life. https://emulsive.org/articles/darkroom/developing-film/they-took-my-kodachrome-away-so-i-brought-it-back And we give Chroma Camera a shout out. https://chroma.camera/ Jim’s links Website. https://www.jimscarbonartphotography.com/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100011330777143 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/carbonfitzgerald/ Other News The Six Towns Darkroom was OPEN but is now CLOSED due to the current National lockdown.

A student of linguistics and comparative religion led Wayne to follow a path to investigate the roots of beliefs, passions and truths as told through alternative and historic forms of communication. “Wayne is an unconventional fine art photographer that uses historical artifacts and processes as his medium to build intricate functional analogue cameras that are hand-tooled from blocks of metal, and used to engage with underservices communities, highlighting current social and humanitarian issues” Today Wayne lives and works in a converted 1940s diaper washing factory in the dusty border town of Tuscon Arizona. Things we chatted about on the show: Sorry about the mad link (there is a way to smarten this up) Heather Oelklaus and “Little Miss Sunshine”. https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DwsLPJjnq-XY%26fbclid%3DIwAR2nmb6DpRO8UKm87aV101ajWxji2-PIQrNOb0bJ-3XNN0b1RPzWSrXB6y4&h=AT3gLXN9RGXovLgQeMyfNXteNFmpuG1PbpDi1-EPYP4tkF1EHAF-xBhMmC2Du5mEKIMwFY4S9KTTcyyXfn-qedvhEJVBQvq4T4V5pAFTS1TTLfZfoc2yNjrkt1PhpdgBDc1A6f74myNuOWjLQiLkqQ At the end of the show in the email section Wayne talks about the camera he is going to build for his artist partner Alanna Airitum.

A first for the show, the same guest two weeks running. This time we tried to do the podcast intended for part one, did we succeed? I think so. We also discovered how good Erik is at reading and answering our listeners’ emails which we have cleverly called “Ask Erik”. From now on email reading and answering will be handled by someone who turns it into a kind of performance art. Things we chatted about on the show: “Rides Slow and Take Photos” web article for some background to Erik’s Butterfield overland mail trail bike ride. https://www.analogforevermagazine.com/features-interviews/film-review-ride-slow-take-pictures?fbclid=IwAR2EPCPIhFtwFzulEit7Jy-D2Qd7Ws3tnGSLIb3trteOZcprh_f1sTJqjNU Erik sent us several links to things we chatted about on the show and some I don’t think we did! But they all look great. The work of Consuelo Konaga whose archive is at the Brooklyn Museum. https://www.brooklynmuseum.org/opencollection/artists/6641/objects?fbclid=IwAR1YWwpKLgawjEQtplTwDCnpeH6Gp_mLul-TGBNLiwXz7xTRLBzesL9B4TY At the end of Erik’s Butterfield bike ride he ends up at the workshop of Wayne Martin Belger, we chat a bit about Wayne’s “third Eye” skull camera and his “Us and Them” camera which is remarkable. Erik drew our attention to Wayn’e ground breaking “HIV Bloodworks” project, here is a link. https://www.waynemartinbelger.com/index/G00008tmllFKMnBQ?fbclid=IwAR31KEj8oM0Gj5WLSkk9_zYzsZ1yiicCfZAPJQWJ5hZIJL2UnnkLnBNDCR8 Eric said “Also, I didn’t touch on him but I wanted to.

Video and Podcast by: Todd Bruce and Kevin Boehmer Kevin and Todd dive into and discuss some of their favourite talks from General Conference, BYU Speeches, Church Devotionals and any other significant talks that can be found. On this video they discuss, “Within the Clasp of Your Arms” by Jeffrey R. Holland which reminded members that “It is increasingly clear that we must teach the gospel to our families personally, live those teachings in our homes, or run the risk of discovering too late that a Primary teacher or priesthood adviser or seminary instructor could not do for our children what we would not do for them.” Come for the spiritual discussion, stay for the tangents and occasional hockey/pop culture talk.

“My name is Erik Mathy, and I've been obsessed with photography since my Mom handed me her Pentax K1000 when I was 17. While I do own a digital camera or two, traditional methods are much more exciting to me from both an artistic and personal satisfaction standpoint. There is something about combining vision with hands on techniques and then being able to hold the end result up to the light that is incredibly satisfying”. Well here is a show that didn’t go as planned, none the worse for that but it means we have to have pt 2 to discuss Eric’s “Ride Slow, Take Photos” trip and film, his passion for making lenses and other projects. This show is a bit sweary as Simon could not find his bleeper... For this show……. Well I’ll list as many links as I can remember. Things we chatted about on the show: OK so we didn’t get on to this but here is a link to the article in AF magazine (get it if you don’t already) discussing Rides Slow and Take Photos. https://www.analogforevermagazine.com/features-interviews/film-review-ride-slow-take-pictures?fbclid=IwAR2EPCPIhFtwFzulEit7Jy-D2Qd7Ws3tnGSLIb3trteOZcprh_f1sTJqjNU Eric hinted at his passion for cycling which forms the means of transport on his “Ride Slow, Take Photos” epic journey. Check out ands subscribe to this blog which has some wonderful photo journalism by a talented team including Erik with some home made lenses. https://element.ly/2020/04/echos-of-futures-past-part-i-nancy-chipukites-darrell-stiles/ Erik mentioned documentary photographer Eugene Richards and gave us a link (I’m sure I must have been aware of his work but couldn’t put a name to the images). https://eugenerichards.com/?fbclid=IwAR3seIJwcCtJzhWeja0vGYkNI1tzihyDKxBLs7tzYa-jLgCGfeZK3_kTXrY And a Vimeo clip. https://vimeo.com/75177919?fbclid=IwAR2TXU2dTYLfVpRnHQbPg91kezqOkUmBNWleh4-ITJOJWM-6pWIqbqiFuCo And a thoughtful YouTube video interviewing Eugene Richards worth a watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAwV09XgFzo&fbclid=IwAR04xERC5BtJGT5jwlf1mpKtKU2RAwmSwmtTewQWUaVU-agpaHMwtt02EdM Post Podcast Erik also recommended the work of James Fee. https://www.google.com/search?q=james+fee+photographs&safe=active&rlz=1C1GCEB_enGB918GB918&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwizqIT1io7sAhVDWxUIHeFgBwgQ_AUoAXoECBYQAw&biw=1280&bih=610 Kelly-Shane Fuller I this is interesting….. https://emulsive.org/articles/darkroom/developing-film/they-took-my-kodachrome-away-so-i-brought-it-back And his IG. https://www.instagram.com/piratelogystudios/?hl=en Making colour images by filtering through separate filters and recombining came up in this part of the discussion.

“Shane’s work shines on its artistic merit and for its collaborative nature. It is genuine and enthusiastic on a human level. For the folks of many different Indian tribes who sit for his portraits, and who often become his life-long friends, Shane builds lasting rapport. It is this rapport, and the importance of honest collaboration between people of different cultures, that is so vital for our country and is at the heart of moving forward as a nation. I strive to emulate the rapport that Shane has achieved in his art in the work I’m doing in congress. Shane’s photographs are not only beautiful, they convey the best example of good people working together to achieve something great”. Debra A. Haaland US Congresswoman for New Mexico 1st District Laguna Pueblo Things we chatted about on the show: The usual back and forth chatter at the beginning covered “how we value our work” which Andrew is finding extremely difficult at the moment, how important it is to record some info on a photograph and how crap cloud storage is for a long term solution to filing. Shane was very helpful in focusing our thoughts in these areas. Simon made an appearance on the “brand extension” of Sunny16 Podcast – Sunny16 Presents! – not sure if it’s out yet but you can find episodes here, it looks like a great podcast. https://sunny16presents.podbean.com/ We referenced a lot of Shane’s public work and installations including the proposed 7ft mural of Greta. https://www.inforum.com/news/4969850-Bismarck-artist-behind-controversial-Greta-Thunberg-mural-shares-stories-of-support-and-hate The documentary talks about the Dakota pipeline that POTUS authorised on coming into power.

"Ultimately, despite the contemporary subject matter and modern details, we see a unique honesty and are struck by the strength and determination of these skaters. "They are purposeful and courageous, open, playful and supportive. "I admire their respectful and shrewd fight for a place in the world." A quote from the BBC News article that prompted Simon to reach out to Jenny and we are sure glad he did. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-53739203 Things we chatted about on the show: Like a wild animal caged in a zoo and poked at by small children Andrew, goaded by Simon and Jimmy Hickford was given some space to have a mini rant about a few things. Don’t pay too much attention to him as he is old and senile. During our regular catch up section, Jenny told us she had been making some lumen prints during lockdown using RC paper and some old expired colour paper. Lumen prints are some of the easiest ways to make photographic prints and read about them here and see some of the beautiful images created by Natasha Sanchez. https://www.natashasanchezcreates.com/lumen-prints#:~:text=A%20lumen%20print%20is%20a,experiments%20in%20the%2019th%20century. Andrew mentioned arthrotypes which wasn’t at all the correct term – it was Anthotype. https://www.alternativephotography.com/anthotypes-anthotype-process/ Friend of the show and sometime video editor Jimmy Hickford drew our attention to Czech photographer Marketa Luskavova. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark%C3%A9ta_Luska%C4%8Dov%C3%A1 Jenny spoke about Erik Mathy who makes LF lenses from Dollar bills! – he is featured in the upcoming Analogue Forever Issue 2. https://www.analogforevermagazine.com/features-interviews/film-review-ride-slow-take-pictures Jenny is related to Alma Lavenson one of the members of Group f64 View her work on Google. https://www.google.com/search?q=Alma+Lavenson,+photographs&safe=active&rlz=1C1GCEU_enGB846GB857&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAOPgE-LSz9U3MEnPjjcqUQKzkw3Ly5LLtKSyk630k_Lzs_UTS0sy8ousQOxihfy8nMpFrFKOObmJCj6JZal5xfl5OgoFGfkl-elFiQUZxTtYGQGr3JmMVgAAAA&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjDm-32x73rAhV2UBUIHaY8Ct4Q_AUoAXoECBIQAw&biw=1536&bih=850 Jenny is proud to be associate with the Skate Like A Girl organisation http://www.skatelikeagirl.com/ Jenny wishes to thank her publisher, Daylight Books https://daylightbooks.org/ Jenny’s links Check out the BBC article that kicked all this off. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/in-pictures-53739203 Instagram https://www.instagram.com/jennysampsonphotography/?hl=en Jenny has her Skater Girls book out soon and orders can be taken via her website or your local book store. http://www.jennysampson.com/ And last but by no means least Jenny began collaborating with other artists during lockdown to make reimagined pictures of classic photographs, but they all had to incorporate toilet rolls.

Andre is a film enthusiast, there is no getting over that. Those that have followed his progress over the years were overjoyed when he landed a job working with CineStill, couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. But the burning question, the elephant in the room if you will, is will he stick with this new found love and dare I say it, obsession, that is large format photography? This obsession so far has brought two LF cameras and a lovely Omega 4x5 enlarger, is he another Simon Forster, Andrew wonders, loves all the gear but we don’t see many images? Is Andrew being cruel, or realistic or, just maybe we are seeing a new Andre? If this show was anything to go by then he’s off to a great start and so far shows no sign of selling all his gear but time will tell. We gathered together a rogues gallery of former guests and others who just wanted to be a part of this recording which has also been committed to video for posterity. This will be available on out You Tube channel as soon as the file makes its way by pigeon carrier to Simon from our video engineer colleague Jimmy Hickford. Things we chatted about on the show: At the start of the show we chatted about 4x5 colour and Andrew’s issues with scanning. The solutions all seemed complicated so he will stick to colour at 120 size. Andre kind of announced that Cinestill film would be available in 4x5 sheets and also Eastman 5222 stock – this is super exciting. The internet was all giddy over Steve Lloyd showing his beta version of an electronic shutter for barrel lenses – this will likely be a KickStarter so follow along on one of Steve’s social sites (links below). Andre came armed with some questions and we all attempted to answer him, it was fun, but don’t take my word for it. Question 1 – Does (loupe) size matter? Are certain ones better than others. Andrew suggested 4x or 6x max but wasn’t sure why, Jason Lane said if they are too powerful then the ground glass image starts interfering with the focused image. Here is a picture of the one Andrew has but normally he just takes his specs off due to being very short sighted! Question 2 – Fresnel lenses….do they help and where should you place them? A mixed response from our room of experts (definition as ex is a has been and a spurt is a drip under pressure), but if you are going to use one buy one with a focal length in the same range as the lenses you are going to use. Probably aim for 150mm as that is likely to be in the mid range of what you are using. Jason Lane said place it on the photographer’s side of the ground glass with the lens rings facing toward the lens , so smooth side to the photographer. Ethan Moses was very dismissive of them but Steve Lloyd kinda wasn’t (fight). If you buy a cheap one of the net then you may be lucky or not – oh they also DON’T MAKE THE IMAGE BRIGHTER (that’s Ethan shouting at Andrew by the way). Question 3 – Is it bad to leave your shutter cocked or your thick Grafmatic film holder in the spring back? Consensus here was short term say on a day trip all is good but if you are looking to maybe store those lenses or camera for a while then trip the shutter and remove the back. Question 4 – How do you store your film holders to prevent the darkslides coming out? Most (apart from Ethan who has photographer’s jeans) use zip lock bags. Even if those little rotating right angle darkslide retainer thingies are missing the friction of the darkslide in the holder will be enough to keep them in place, coupled with the zip lock bag. Andrew has a 5 holder cascade holder from Dan Stone – his products are really well made but not the cheapest https://www.stonephotogear.com/filmstorage Question 5 – Where do you put unprocessed film before it gets developed? Do you leave them in the holders or transfer them to a box? Most use old 4x5 film boxes. The advantage is that you can segregate the exposed films according to how you wish to develop them e.g a wide subject brightness range >5 or 6 stops maybe then reduce development by 20% or so according to your set up. Someone suggested a pack of black bags like the once that sheet film come in – either B&H or Freestyle maybe? Andrew and Dave Shrimpton tend to take out enough film holders to suit the development tank then process straight away – so 6 sheets typically. Question 6 – Can you split grade print contact prints? In short – yes. You can use under the lens filters or dial in settings to your colour head if you have one. The filter drawer in Andre’s Omega may get a bit toasty so possibly don’t use that. Question 7 – Do you use filters? 10 stop grad? Is fo how do you attach them? 10 stopper maybe not – use slow film and f45 – get a 2-3 stop ND if necessary. Andrew uses Cokin P rings, filters and holders and Greg uses a GELSNAP holder from LEE Filters which seems to be out of stock everywhere. https://www.leefilters.com/index.php/camera-directory/camera-dir-list/category/gelsnap-filter-holder And finally…… Question 8 – What brands of floppy hat do you all recommend. Tilly T3 is the one https://www.tilley.com/uk_en/t3-wanderer-hat.html Andre’s links You can see pictures of his watches (his last craze) here. https://www.instagram.com/andre.on.film/?hl=en He occasionally stays awake during a recording of Neg Pos Podcast – they have a great FB group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2008988399314590 And here is CineStill who Andre works for. https://cinestillfilm.com/products/800tungsten-c41-36exp-35mm-high-speed-color-negative-135 Rogues gallery links Ethan Moses https://www.cameradactyl.com/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/2282531432013144/ Greg Obst http://greggobst.com/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/greggobst Jimmy Hickford https://twitter.com/jimmyshootsfilm?lang=en https://www.instagram.com/jimmyshootsfilm/?hl=en John Money https://www.instagram.com/johntmoney/?hl=en Joseph Brunjes https://www.josephbrunjes.com/index https://www.flickr.com/photos/24021575@N02 Nick Lyle https://www.flickr.com/photos/51834204@N07/ https://www.instagram.com/avynick/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/groups/2282531432013144/ Steve Lloyd http://chroma.camera/ https://www.instagram.com/chromacamera/ Phew Other News The inaugural LFPP Gathering in the forest 2020 was cancelled but you can catch up with the virtual meeting we had recently where we were honoured to have Dave Shrimpton and Kate Miller-Wilson present their work and ideas to over 20 of us on line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQQtnpFib8s&t=113s And….

“The emotional connection we all have with nature is powerful. Nature can be intense and unforgiving as well as calming and peaceful. I seek out remote locations where these true feelings of the natural world can emerge, using photography as a means to capture these emotions and bring them back for all to see”. “The way I see the world is best conveyed through the lens of a large format film camera. The extreme clarity of this traditional medium allows me to capture every minute detail in the scene just the way it was. The rich colors and tones of film allow me to express my vision powerfully, while the technical movements of a large format camera allow for incredible focus and perspective control unlike any other format. Using the mountains and the plains as my classroom, I have taught myself everything I know about photography. I also process and print all of my black and white photographs traditionally in a darkroom. Through this medium I invite you to join me on my journeys and see the natural world through my eyes”.

This week we are joined by circus performer and large format photographer Guy Bellingham. With most of the travelling circus community not able to work and with the future looking uncertain, it is with a passion and a huge heart that Guy is photographing his circus community friends to honour them and to share something of them to the outside world. Using home made large format camera obscura and photographing the image with a digital camera Guy melds the old and the modern in an exciting way. As well as making these hybrid photographs, Guy takes “Figalotype” images where he makes wet plate collodion images of his friends via the TV screen! With focusing Fresnel lights to deal with as well, Guy doesn’t believe in making life easy, but then good art often isn’t. Thanks Guy!

“I never embarked in any one thing to which I have so entirely devoted myself, and to which I have devoted so much time, thought, and labour, and on the success of which I have staked so much reputation, and to which I have so largely committed myself and those who were disposed to place faith in me.” — Isambard Kingdom Brunel A quote that Jack uses on his website and after you listen to this show we are sure you will agree with him. This episode turned out to be quite a bit different from all our previous shows, we didn’t really dive down into large format photography (we will save that for part 2 at some point), but instead Jack talks at length about the struggles, highs and lows that accompany him on this adventure of a lifetime. Thanks again Jack.

(He's better than his dad at Photoshop). Things we chatted about on the show: Simon has a 200mm f3.6 Leitz Wetzlar projection lens fitted to his MPP camera and made a rather lovely image of his Dad looking at a wasps nest. Some care and attention is needed to Simon’s processing techniques but we weren’t too hard on him – and Simon please use some fresh film you cheapskate. Andrew was enthusing about popping his dry plate cherry. Using Jason Lane’s 1/6th plate ISO 25 dry plates purchased from Analogue Wonderland. https://analoguewonderland.co.uk/collections/j-lane-dry-plates/products/j-lane-speed-plates-sixth-plate-film-iso-25 Neil Gaiman’s Wife Amanda Palmer published a book called “The Art of Asking” – this helped Jack enormously. https://www.audible.co.uk/pd/The-Art-of-Asking-Audiobook/B00NLP8GTI?source_code=M2M14DFT1BkSH082015011R&&ipRedirectOverride=true Neil Gaiman’s 2012 commencement speech also inspired Jack and gave him the confidence to follow his idea and just do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikAb-NYkseI Other News The inaugural LFPP Gathering in the forest 2020 was cancelled but you can catch up with the virtual meeting we had recently where we were honoured to have Dave Shrimpton and Kate Miller-Wilson present their work and ideas to over 20 of us on line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQQtnpFib8s&t=113s And….

Our guest this week has many descriptors, humanitarian, conservationist, fine art large format photographer, book publisher, lecturer, legendary photographer and national treasure. Clyde Butcher has been making photographs for over 60 years, the last 35 in Big Cypress National Park which is in the Western Everglades of Florida State. Clyde’s stunning 8ft wide darkroom prints are made to fully immerse the viewer and communicate on a level to help raise awareness of the fragility of this endangered landscape. Thank you Clyde for finding the time to talk with us. Clyde’s links Clyde’s website is a great place to find out more https://clydebutcher.com/ Clyde is on IG https://www.instagram.com/clydebutcher/ and on FB https://www.facebook.com/clydebutcher/ Things we chatted about on the show: Simon and Clyde got off to a great start with a slight disagreement about the origins of something called a Flektogon, Klingon or Emperor Ming, I can’t really recall to be honest. Simon of course couldn’t admit defeat so later came up with this article which demonstrated that they were both right, apparently. https://casualphotophile.com/2019/04/02/zeiss-flektogon-lens-review/?fbclid=IwAR0bIZVpJTceea6uJ0KmupZwygqeCDfO7ngphngQU3pTsukkihMAMNKgxSY Simon and I both missed the presentation that Clyde made this week at the B&H Optic 2020 – here is a YouTube link to hear Clyde and see his work. https://casualphotophile.com/2019/04/02/zeiss-flektogon-lens-review/?fbclid=IwAR0bIZVpJTceea6uJ0KmupZwygqeCDfO7ngphngQU3pTsukkihMAMNKgxSY We both continued to demonstrate our ignorance when we admitted to not knowing who Jerry Uelsmann was. https://www.all-about-photo.com/photographers/photographer/105/jerry-uelsmann Clyde mentioned Everglade photographer Oscar Thompson. https://evergladesonline.com/photos-oscar.htm Other News The inaugural LFPP Gathering in the forest 2020 was cancelled but you can catch up with the virtual meeting we had recently where we were honoured to have Dave Shrimpton and Kate Miller-Wilson present their work and ideas to over 20 of us on line. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQQtnpFib8s&t=113s You can see Dave and Kates work on IG https://www.instagram.com/dave_shrimpton/ https://www.instagram.com/katemillerwilson/ And….

Our guest this week thoroughly enjoyed the words of wisdom that Borut shared with us on our last show (as did many others), not worrying when it doesn’t go to plan, if the shots don’t work out. Own the emotion, learn and move on. Incorporate it into your art; make it a part of the “ritual” of creativity. It was against this background the host of Viewfinder Vikings Podcast, commercial and fine art photographer Svein Olav Humberset joined us to talk mainly about photographic projects, why bother, the challenges, the opportunities and well, you get the idea. Simon is off to photograph his garden from the same spot, every Month for 10 years... Svein’s links See examples of Svein’s atmospheric images from Norway at his IG site https://www.instagram.com/humbersetfoto/?hl=en His website http://www.humbersetfoto.com/ Listen to Svein and Ian Barnaby Nutt at the Viewfinder Vikings Podcast (it’s great) https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/viewfinder-vikings-podcast/id1436597744 Things we chatted about on the show: The "Knowledgeable Simon Forster" was asked to write the foreword to a digitised book of the travel photos of Kurt Hielscher “Unknown Spain” – take a look here: https://large-format-photography.org/ Of course we couldn’t get through this particular show without referencing show #27 with Borut Peterlin in particular the moving video he had just posted in memory of Mike his dog. Grab some tissues and watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fUx-2IB9QA Simon gave a shout out to former guest on the show Kate Miller-Wilson. Kate has moved on from electrocuting herself in the quest for inner realisation and is now making some lovely wet plate images and sharing her journey in IG. https://www.instagram.com/katemillerwilson/?hl=en Svein gave shout outs to former guests Borut (see above) and Alys Tomlinson.

Another show that's been long in the making, and it comes three weeks in to a UK lockdown due to COVID-19, with photographers trying to make sense of it all, trying to find motivation, maybe dealing with anxiety or frustration. Borut Peterlin is a man consumed with his art-work, seeking self-expression through a +100 year old medium, communing with nature, exploring the meaning of rituals in life. Borut’s YouTube channel is a must watch, Simon you need to play it through your TV in your living room, it comes to life then and is much more interesting that Casualty…… We didn’t talk about gear at all, this was a thoughts and ideas show and was all the better for it, but listen and see for yourself. Borut’s links http://www.topshitphotography.com/ https://www.instagram.com/borutpeterlin/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCjjZ-Qc43dF7xHBC92MAuA Things we chatted about on the show: Borut’s latest body of work the New Earth Project which I think is a complete change of lifestyle for him and not just a passing project, was influenced by work shown in Berlin by Cuban conceptual artist Ana Mendieta- here is a link to work that was on show at the Tate. https://www.tate.org.uk/art/artists/ana-mendieta-11167 Writer, thinker and author Eckhart Tolle https://www.eckharttolle.com/ Thinker, writer and philosopher Alan Watts https://www.alanwatts.org/ Other News We didn’t mention this but along with Photostock 2020 the inaugural LFPP Gathering in the forest 2020 has been cancelled. Lets see how COVID pans out over the summer but my guess this will now be moved to Spring 2021. And…. Much to Simon’s dismay the Six Towns Darkroom is in lock down for the time being.

We’ve been threatening to have an email / listener show for a while so we thought this would be a good opportunity to do that in a short show, of course it didn’t quite work out that way.

I am not sure what to say about this other than what a great guest, making great work and with a wonderful story to tell. Feeling very inspired in these dark days of plague and pestilence after two hours with Peter.

Peter’s links https://www.peterdefty.com/ https://www.instagram.com/peterdefty/?hl=en Things we chatted about on the show: Peter came to our attention via Paul Bullock during a conversation that Simon had with him at the Six Towns Darkroom (another plug). Paul and Peter are both members of the Royal Photographic Society Analogue Group. https://rps.org/groups/analogue/ Artist and Ethnographer Edward Curtiss and his documentation of Native Americans. https://edwardcurtis.com/ Mr Cad and his wonderful photo store when Peter was putting together his large camera. https://www.mrcad.co.uk/ Legendary darkroom printer Robin Bell. http://robinbell.com/ Peter said his Outlaw and Miner prints are made to look like photogravure prints – still clueless? https://photogravure.com/process/ Peter sources most of his paper from specialist paper supplier to the art world R.K.Burt. https://www.rkburt.com/ Social Anthropologist Sara Pink. https://theconversation.com/profiles/sarah-pink-109198 Jack Lowe (Grandson of Arthur) has been documenting RNLI crews for a while now using large format cameras. https://lifeboatstationproject.com/ Custom Bellows in Birmingham offer a great bellows replacement service as well as selling Bulldog self-assembly LF cameras. http://www.custombellows.co.uk/index.html Peter uses a piece of shareware to locally manage print tonality . http://www.quadtonerip.com/html/QTRoverview.html Process supplies got a shout out – they are a great supplier for all things film and darkroom. https://www.processuk.net/ Currently our meet up at the end of May is still on, BUT, if you haven’t already booked you may want to hold on a while to see how the plague settles down or not. Why not join us at the “LFPP 2020 Gathering in the Forest” over the weekend of 29th and 30th May. Bracelands Camp site, Forest of Dean (that’s in the UK for those in the colonies) – www.campingintheforest.co.uk Andrew will be arriving on the Friday and Simon on the Saturday. The main “gathering” will be Saturday evening when we hope to share witty tales of large format japes, drink adult beverages and eat burnt food…..what’s not to love. Thanks to all those who donated using the Ko-Fi site and to our email contributors, we finally managed to answer some (well two) before running out of time. And…… Much to Simon’s dismay the Six Towns Darkroom is in lock down for the time being.
