I thought the lines of this image were interesting. This was shot on Kodak Tri-X with a Yashika Mat 126G Twin Lens Reflex.
Hey now, Hay
Haller Fountain and the Ferry Terminal
Both of these were taken on Kodak Tri-X film, but with different cameras. The top one with a Leica M-3 and the bottom with a Holga plastic camera. The Leica is an older camera, but very well made and with an exquite lens. The Holga is a ‘modern’ camera … but cheap, made of plastic with a plastic lens. There are noticeable image quality differences, but both are interesting images. The “lesson” is that it isn’t the camera that makes an interesting photo.
Water Moods
These images of water all have very different moods to them. The one above is taken from Fort Worden in Port Townsend, the middle one is the Port Townsend waterfront and the bottom one is small tributary of the Dosewallips River (Phantom Creek), near the small town of Brinnon. They were all taken on Portra 400 using a Nikon F6.
Brickwork
Port Townsend has a lot of beautiful old brick buildings. They make interesting images … and so do some of the narrow passages bewteen the buildings. These are also images shot on Tri-X using a Nikon F100.
It all depends on which way you look…
I thought these photos were all interesting … even without the fact that they were all taken from about the same spot. (not on the same day) They are all taken from Marrowstone Island, which is just southeast of Port Townsend, WA. The body of water is Puget Sound. I like the variation in mood between these. I especially like the stormy weather shot just below that has the grass blowing into a blur.
I should add that these are all shot on film. The black and white on Tri-X and the color on Portra 400. The black and whites were shot using a Nikon F100 and the color using a Nikon F75.
