I am bored out of my mind with 6 inches of snow on the ground so I found a bunch of old photos I shot in the late 90's. Probably 96' to 98'. These are all slides scanned and shot on a F4 or a N 90s.
First is a Nashville local, Andrew Paschall. Smoothest guy around. We had an abandoned grocery store with some junk obstacles set up. This is switch.

Next: Nathan Smith on a filming trip for the first Logic video not too long after he won Tampa AM. Downtown ATL hubba.

Next: Bo Turner Switch frontside crooks in Nashville. This is when he was on Balance Skateboards and he came up From FL. to try to get Nathan Smith on Balance.

Next:Jon Newport in ATL. This was from the Logic vid trip.

A little story behind this one- I had submitted and had two of the "Unsolicited" articles run in SLAP and I contacted Lance Dawes about getting into the MTV Sports and Music Festival in Memphis, 1998. Lance was always so cool about helping out aspiring photographers so he sent me a pass or put my name on a list. Anyway, once I got there the MTV people were total a-holes about access. I was limited to shooting practice only at first and they eventually kicked me out. Somehow Ron from Cheapskates in Memphis got me back in and I had to hide my camera under my shirt and shoot on the sly. This is one of the only good shots, I had to guess on the metering and focus and just shoot as quick as I could. Ed Templeton, feeble during practice. Lincoln Ueda, vert practice.

The last one for now is a shitty pic but another story. I went out to East Bay on a trip and managed to get out to skate a few places while I was there. I went to check out Benicia banks and when I got there two guys where just ripping the shit out of the place and this sort of little dude was shooting pics. I wanted to take some pics so bad because this one guy was just blasting kickflip Melon grabs but I was too scared to ask so I poached. Terrible picture but I later figured out I poached Morford while he was shooting Staba with a younger, blonde headed Brian Anderson in the background. I had no idea at the time.

This is Oscar Rambao, you've probably seen him on Skateline. He's Copenhagen local and a good associate of mine.
I haven't done much skateboard photography, before this and I really miss a light set up, but that'll come some day.
The photos are compressed after sending over facebook. I can't really worry about that, but I noticed they actually do quite alright on Instagram

Looking at the code, his looks like it's built off squarespace as well

Cadillac Ranch Dressing · « **Reply #6257 on:** February 10, 2016, 11:40:21 AM »

I use Squarespace and I've had nothing, but good experiences with it.

Some scans of semi recent prints :

The first three are 30x40 on FB mat paper (Ilford) and the last one is smaller RC. I really wish I had a dry mounting press as the taping to a glass pane does not work at all for me. The paper curl is too strong for the tape and I only end up with tape glue on the edges.

Lately I've been ironing them and it's not so bad if you let the prints under a giant pile of books for a few days.

One Iphone pic before The Great Curl :

I've just sent to the printer a little photozine I made about the two weeks I spent in Namibia in early January; I'll post some pics here when I have it.

Since most here have been sharing their insta page here is mine :

Brianwilson, I have to catch you out in LA, digging the work. Trying to meet new people ever since I moved back.

scan of a print i made last week

Really nice tones in that print CDoug. I really like prints with a full tonal range like that, from deep blacks to paper white.

Hercules Rockefeller · « **Reply #6264 on:** February 16, 2016, 05:05:52 AM »

nice one doug! really like the front board as well.

question: does anyone in here have any experiences with a Polaroid 600? i got a batch of film for my birthday and can borrow one from a homie. how is the trigger delay? any chances to shoot (simple) skateboarding with it?

Fongstarr. · « **Reply #6265 on:** February 16, 2016, 12:53:48 PM »

Anyone know of skate photographers selling prints? I have always wanted to start a print collection from photographers. Only one I bought so far is Allen Ying's photo of Puleo. Seemed kind of nice with the bridge and all.

I know of only the guys below that have webstores. Can anyone recommend others? Even lesser known photographers would be rad.

Found out that the Walgreens by my house develops film and returns the negatives. Their scans aren't all that good but they'll have to do until I get a scanner.

I have the Impulse AF which I borrowed from my grandmother but I very rarely use it since I've been really disapointed with Impossible film. I do think there would be a slight delay that's not convenient for skate photography but you can always try. Since you can see the results within half an hour you will know if it's worth it or not. Plus it's autofocus, so it's mostly hit and miss with skateboard pics.
