The always fantastic Milosz Wozaczynski with “The Personal Trainer”   Wozaczynski is a Polish photographer who primarily works in large format, this piece is shot on 8x10.   I find his work playfully surreal with a much cleaner, less cluttered feel than Joel Peter-Whitkin or Jan Saudek.  I find his work is at its strongest when he has several models to work with as his way of finding a relationship between them is impeccable.   His blog (in Polish) can be found here: http://wozaczynski.com/blog/ His portfolio site is here: http://www.wozaczynski.com/ View high resolution

Storm King from Cold Spring waterfront.  Paper negative taken with a Shen Hao 4x5 using a 90mm Schneider Super-Angulon.  I took this one just after dawn.  My first day off in over 6 months and the first thing I do is get up at 6:00 am and lug a field camera and tripod onto the train to go wait in the cold for the sun to rise.  I think there’s something very wrong with me sometimes.  View high resolution

Still Life, Paper Negative: Still life of dried branch. Two changes. Using Ilford Grade 2 paper instead of variable contrast and changed my paper developer from Edwal Ultra-Black to Platinum Plus. I think this works much better as using VC paper just blows everything out. Paper negative shot on Shen Hao PTB with a Schneider 150mm f/5.6
