I would frame my image from WPPD 2001 and mail it to a gallery for a show, even for a short term show.. I bet I could get one of the local galleries here in Baltimore to offer space, as long as it isn't already committed. Maybe the work travels not like a traditional traveling show from place to place but from the web to many locations and all are open on Sunday April 28, -- HTML HEAD TITLE/TITLE /HEAD BODY BR Chris Peregoy | http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~peregoy | http://imda.umbc.edu/ /BODY /HTML

Re: [pinhole-discussion] Multigrade filters

I have a question on multigrade filters: are the filters used to adjust contrast the set I see at BH that are magenta in color? They cost $20 for a complete set of 3.5 filters. Can I use them when making positves as well as negatives? I'm using Ilford paper for negatives. Thanks. Chris The effect of the filters is the same as when using them within your enlarger. The lesser numbers may be helpful when the contrast of the scene is great. OTOH, if the contrast range of the scene is not great, you will end up with a muddy mess, so run some tests. You can make positives by contact printing your negatives. Cheers - george = Handmade Photographic Images http://members.home.net/hmpi/ __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!

Re: [pinhole-discussion] New Image post ...please note the right-hand corner above the desk
Nice picture, Steve. Your home work space seems much more organized than mine (based on the model of Random Access...). Re: the vignetting, I've long stopped worrying about it and actually build on it to enhance the dynamics of the image. It works well with you picture.

I love old Polaroids I was fortunate enough to use the roll film Polaroid (Models 800 and 900) before the Black and White roll film was discontinued. Good luck. Tell us of conversion methods.

It actually makes for an interesting photo with the vignette there. The e-mail system split the line that the url was on (see copy below), but amyone wanting to see the image can just go to the 2002 section of the glaaery and look for officesurf.jpg to see it.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] polaroid conversion
Ray , Thank you for that vote of confidence! The Polaroid 101, 104 and 210 are fairly common and the world will not cry if these camera are altered. The Model 250 has a Zeiss rangefinder like the Model 100 so and this one to your do not destroy list. You may want to try the Positive /Negative pack film 665 which has an ASA/ISO of 75. Expose for the picture and the negative matches it.

Re: [pinhole-discussion] polaroid conversion
Yes, but there are thousands of them sitting in closets and attics not being used. It is a great camera to use for Polaroid Image/Emulsion transfers. The important thing is that in addition to the (folding!) rangefinder, there is a very nice tripod socket -- an almost vital ingredient of a good pinhole camera. Polaroid called that model the Automatic 100 to distinguish it from the older roll film model 100, which used manual exposure setting. (And it really does say Automatic 100 right on the camera: I own 2 of them.) Mike Vande Bunt james...@aol.com wrote: Mike Vande Bunt said: Look for an Aitomatic 100 pack film camera. The film is still being made and the metal camera body has a tripod socket. I am assuming he meant Polaroid Model 100. Please don't convert a Model 100 because it has a beautiful Zeiss rangefinder that would be rendered usless by the conversion from the Land List website find a cheaper candidate for conversion.

[pinhole-discussion] ground glass
(re messages in December '01) Try polycarbonate resin (GE Lexan or equiv). This is the shatterproof window glazing material, be sure it isn't just acrylic (Rohm Haas Plexiglas or equiv), although that might work as well for this relatively undemanding application. Cheap, lightweight, easily trimmed etc at home, safer to work with, unbreakable (bulletproof?) in the field. Use crocus cloth, available at your local hardware store, lubricate with white kerosene. G Penate was looking for something finer than 600 grit. Crocus cloth is equivalent to about 1200 grit. Dick Gifford
