About Isabelle Lousberg's The Széchenyi Baths series. These pictures are not pinhole photographs (unlike Castles or Sunflowers). In her introduction in French, Isabelle is just a little more precise about the technique that in her English text ; she explains : Interesting subject for pinhole photography that I chose to cover using an almost normal camera because of technical and time reasons. Human being until then absent in the pictures (because of pinhole technique) now appears floating between two waters Very nice pictures even if not pinhole ones ! I really do not think of any digital manipulation as I can feel Isabelle's sensitivity and way of working through her statements .

RE: [pinhole-discussion] A website pinhole discovery
Must be some rather rugged cameras to be left out over night or, I think she mentioned, several weeks? She would be a nice addition to the group..great work.. andy I thought exactly the same, the water waves are frozen in time and some of the silhouettes seem to me as a bit too big for the image perspective and how deep into the picture they are situated. So it seems there has been some digital manipulation. BTW, NOTHING WRONG, IMO, WITH ANY OF THAT. Now, I am not quite sure the author claims the Baths series were made with a pinhole camera, she says: The Széchenyi Baths in wintertime. Subject for a pinhole project. I chose a more or less conventional camera due to material conditions. It could be that she thinks this is a good subject for a pinhole project but in this case she chose a more or less conventional camera (glass lens) to do the project. In any case, the stuff is Xcellent. Guillermo

Some of these look like paper negatives and double exposures(who knows) I looked at these last night and was wondering how these were done as well (we will never really know - perhaps she would want to reveal her secrets??? LoL) These are again, quite beautiful Wendy

The skies are blocked and yet terribly bright and powerful. The Castles have been there for all eternity and will remain there for the remainder of time. The Sunflowers are suffering and burning under a force that is beyond them. The bathers at Széchenyi Baths are swimming in the middle of a kafkaesque sea, engulfed in the mist and ready to drown in the waves and surronding buildings! Truly exceptional. Thanks Tina! Guy
