Description
"the photographer will loosely prepare..." these friggin' descriptions just floor me!i'm not a boob guy.
that said ... once i was able to stop fumbling with my equipment (read: cameras) and focus on salmas face ...
well ...
honestly, they are large. like really fucking large.
'twas hard to focus on her face.
but ... her face is so lovely.
so is she.
we were backstage with robert towne who was showing his movie -- a movie that i can't remember the name -- and i asked her if may make some photographs in b/w.
she was totally into it.
so ... once i got past her obvious attributes ...
i made a few.
that's what's so nice about leica glass ... you really don't need a lot of light to make something interesting.
not only that ... but ... i didn't want a typical photo of her.
she was on a couch in the green room ... i backed up enough for a higher than normal position ...
and made this one.
leica mp. leica apo 75/2.0 summicron aspherical. 1/60th at f/2.0. ilford delta 400 (plus 2 at 1600) for some lovely grain.
this is a scan ... you should see the fibre print ... my God.

He he he, yeah I forget mother mode when I have been at work (i USED to work in an office that was all male except me) and also when I've been at uni...... lol, but yes you can tend to give yourself more lee way with parents, as they tend to give out just as good as they get.

it's actually a difficult time to make photos ... but ... sometimes it works.

A GREAT ONE. its a nice choice to up the iso to 1600
so grainy....me likes,sir! all hail Grain!! hehehe
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
love 1600! grain on a real photographic print is lovely...
because ... it's not about grain ... not about sharpness ... it's ALL about content.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i agree.. even digital camera can't make a great grainy...hehehe
thats why i choose film SLR camera rather than a Digital one..
yes i see your photo on salma a little bit out of focus right sir?
so i get the point.. the content! not only the sharpeness.
btw, i also want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for featuring my deviation "hanya aaku dan kalengku" for Daily Deviation on February 13,2006. thanks

i focused on her right eye and the print looks right on ... scanners ... well .. they're not perfect.
no worries for the feature!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1

thats the point,sir. same like in Indonesia there not lot of good scanner.
sometimes i want to stop using film because of that, thanks god i'm still survive..
even i wish i can buy some digital camera..amin...hehehe
