mooley, those last two are fantastic. can you PM me a link to high res versions of both of those? would love a new desktop background.

i entered the leica oskar barnack contest in the "newcomer" category, and somehow my series is up on the site's front page. winner takes an M9 with lens...which would be absolutely amazing. so many incredible entries, though. here's a link to my submission:

love the color and tone on all of those. where were they taken, cadillac?

Cadillac Ranch Dressing · « **Reply #2830 on:** March 01, 2012, 05:33:31 PM »

Thanks! The Walter's Art Museum in Baltimore. It's a room called "The Chamber of Wonders" and it's supposed to be modeled after one of the Cabinet of Curiosities things when old white guys from the 1800s would stock a room full of crazy absurd stuff from around the world to prove they were hot shit to their friends.

awesome. the peacock shot is my favorite.

here are a few prints from a darkroom session last night. definitely need to spend some more time with the second negative...

That third shot is so good!

hey guys! since it has become impossible to borrow lenses for pentax in my general area as well as the complete lack of any kind of service partner around here, i am starting to consider a switch to the big C or N.

so i layed my eyes on either the 7D or D7000 plus a 30ish prime. any opinions/experiences on one of those 2? other ideas (FF would of course be interesting, but the 5DmkII doesnt have enough FPS in my eyes, and the D700 lacks video, which i surprisingly use a lot now...)?

all kinds of input appreciated.

say it aint so herc!!!

although ive heard good things about the nikon d700, and alot of people who i know that shoot skating (as their primary function) use the canon 6d. but obviously if you can afford it try a canon 1d of sorts

7D might be more up your ally since it has a pretty good burst shot and auto focus. The D7000 for a Nikon has been getting tons of appraise but the 7D is still more high end and only a little bit more expensive. It's pretty much the best crop frame camera in the market right now.

Liking my p7000

EDIT!:
Almost forgot that I bought this for $3.43

Excited too shoot with it soon.

Not sure if people care but this got anounced today. Oddly it isn't that much better then the Mark 2 aside from a fast autofocus but the Mark 2 was pretty damn good off the bat, so they pretty much just add a few things here and there.

did you split filter for these?
im liking those three shots, they seem a little bright, maybe its just the scanner?

just picked up 7 rolls of film, mostly pictures for a former classmate of mine, who got married ... these two above are not married, but still cute together ...

I've been doing this 30days of helsinki blog for 28 days now. It will hopefully made into a book

^^cool concept, great pictures! following for sure. wanna do a tumblr project together, that a couple of pals from all over the world would join? we could do something dope.

it's one of these days that makes me want to hate my photography so bad ...I liked only 10 shots out of 7 rolls, which is just a small percentage .. so many out of (auto) focus pictures ... wrong choice of film (ektar +portraits + sun = shit) ... let's just forget about this, haha.

An architecture based group project would be sick.
