Where we are at and where we are going

Thursday, you printed your Camera Buddy portrait. If you get one good print out of a 2 1/2-3 hour printing session, then you had a good printing session. Large format photography is all about quality over quantity.

For Tuesday, you are to have a contact print and enlargement of your Camera Buddy portrait (or a portrait of someone else). In addition, you are to have one contract print and enlargement from the first shooting assignment. Ideally, this is on the theme of Landscape and Reclamation.

For shooting homework, you are to shoot:
1 photo demonstrating the use of front swing
1 'freebie' photo on the theme of Landscape and Reclamation

We will spend Tuesday in the classroom. We will have a 'light' critique of the prints due. This will be followed by a discussion of what Landscape and Reclamation means to you. Here is an interesting UT article about a local reclamation group. Lastly, I feel it is important that we review metering and exposure determination. Be sure to have read the London book section on Exposure and the Zone System prior to next class.

Thursday will be spent working in the lab.
