Finally, I was able to shoot over the weekend. I took roughly 5 boxes of film. I ended up getting a little distracted shooting other things while I was in Port Townsend, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to photograph a carnival at night. I used the copystand to document all of the images this week. Since I digitized the images I am considering editing with lightroom and printing archival pigment prints.

SPE Artist
Earlier, Skyler shared Peter Glendinning's photography featured on SPE. It is always awesome to see others using Impossible film. Some of his images are really striking. Although, I have to admit I am really curious why the images are so soft and out of focus, it seems like it could be intentional but something about it seems accidental. However, I do enjoy the imagery and the figurines featured.

An update on what I've got
I feel the need to do an update on what I've got so far.
I have purchased 10 packs of square color SX-70 film.
I found perfect baroque style frames. I ended up buying 3 5x7 and 3 4x6 frames.
I think that I will probably end up using all 3 of the 5x7's and 2 of the 4x6 frames.
I figured I could display them in a series of repetitions large, small, large, small, large.
I have the location booked and plan to shoot on May 21st.
So, I guess it is just a matter of waiting and hoping and praying that all turns out how I imagine.

Mona Kuhn
I found a short video with Mona Kuhn discussing some of her photographs. Really very interesting to hear her talk about her photographs, especially about using foil as a way to abstract the images.

BOOKS!
I got a chance to check out the two books you loaned me. There were at least a dozen photographers who I haven't heard of that have magnificent images in the books, or photographer's work I may not have seen all of. So, I'm just going to list a bunch of the photographers who I found inspiring and then some images. Pierre Boucher, Albert Rudomine, Rosalind Maingot, Auguste Belloc, Bill Brandt, Man Ray, Franz Fiedler, Ralph Steiner, Imogen Cunningham, Florence Henri, Alfred Stiegltiz, and Andre Garban.

Final Book Research
Going through the last few books I checked out from my library venture.
Arnold Newman, Five Decades
I was mostly drawn to his photography because of the portraiture, but inevitably I was more fascinated by his images that are not traditionally shaped (image above on right).
Jeanloup Sieff, The Great Photographers
Sieff's photography is very commercial, with that being said I really enjoy the way he photographs the female figure.
William Eggleston, Ancient and Modern
I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this particular series of photographs. Some of the images are quite lovely, and demonstrate an amazing sense of mundane, while other images look a little sloppy and like they do not belong.
