Re: [pinhole-discussion] Biennal in Esztergom Hungary
Ed, Very best wishes for the opening on Friday. The text you wrote to accompany your images is very beautiful. I took the liberty of contacting the museum to inquire about the availability of the catalogue you mentionned. They may suddenly get a surge in Email about the catalogue from other members of the list. I'll post any reply I get from them. Again, best wishes for Friday!

RE: [pinhole-discussion] animated earth
The PolyConic one is sort of an anamorphic version...never seen this before. Its a 31k image though, even if we could legally use it andy -Original Message- From: pinhole-discussion-admin@p at ???

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Re: Pinhole-Discussion digest, Vol 1 #203 - 15 msgs
Mark, I really, really like the results. And I agree, the lens camera could never provide the feeling of your images. Its purpose is to come as close as possible to the 'real' thing! Funny that they spend so much efforts transforming the 'real thing' so that it looks like 'something else' that is palatable and that can be easily commercialized...! I beleive that Chris Peregoy from this list does similar things as you (rephotographing cutouts with a pinhole). But then he blows the images up on transparent lith film and hangs them from the ceiling. This is the stuff he showed at Why Pinhole? in Rochester. Cheers, Guy mark boucher wrote: hi all, thanks for the positive feedback on the images. guy, you had it right as far as how they were done. the figures are normal photos that are cut out, placed in miniature environments then re-photographed with the pinhole. i tried doing the same thing with a lens camera but the results were awful. flat and uninteresting. the pinhole camera has the ability to transform what it sees into something mysterious and unified. btw- a diorama is basically a model, or a miniature environment. mark

[pinhole-discussion] A rose in winter
Hi all, It was the day after Valentine day and the sun was casting a beautiful light in the windows of the appartment. So I took the vase with the flowers I had offered my wife, placed it in the window and took this pinhole photograph... http://www.p at ???/discussion/upload/images/roseinwinter2.jpg The image is printed on Luminos charcoal fiber paper. There is a world of difference in the texture, compared to the RC print I did for my tests. You can get a feel visually, but too bad internet does not allow touching the print, but I'm sure all you fiber printers out there know what I mean...-:)) Best, Guy

mark boucher wrote: the figures are cutouts placed in dioramas or in front of painted backdrops. Mark, I love your images. I'm not quite sure I understand what you did, though. Did you take photographs of these women, cut them out and rephotographed them with a pinhole using a different background? Or do I get it all wrong? What is a diorama? The result is very beautiful, very mysterious. Sort of like Alice in Wonderland atmosphere in them. Cheers, Guy

Re: [pinhole-discussion] WPPD Logo suggestion
Yes, it seems to me that given the creative bunch we have here, a logo contest would be the way to go I was just trying to improve on the design that existed at the moment. Colin __ Do You Yahoo!? Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo! Mail - only $35 a year! http://personal.mail.yahoo.com/
