MONOMAD PHOTOGRAPHIC CHALLENGE - bold and lonely tree. (series of images)

bold and lonely tree.

I love to come to this tree from time to time, to make a company, to take some same but different image of the same tree but the different mood of mine, different weather, different camera. I photographed these images for few years with different cameras - both film and digital.

Fomapan_400_6_Holga_by_Victor_Bezrukov-4.JPG

Taken with Holga 120GN plastic film camera. For this one, I used Fomapan 400 film and developed it semi-stand in Rodinal at home.

Behind the scene moment - you can see my Hassey 500cm in action in fields in front of the tree.

And again Holga 120GN and the same Fomapan 400.
A few days I had this image in my imagination and finally exposed it exactly like dreamed.

Hasselblad and Bergger Pancro 400 film, somehow damaged by the light that exposed the frame during rewinding.

Mobile image - long and sharp like a blade.

The last one and the most successful on film, even i have some ideas and doubts about what success is exactly when we talk about ART.
How clean or how sharp should be expressed the subject of our storytelling?

A beautiful series. I recognized the Holga before I scrolled down far enough to see that that was what you had used. I agree, art doesn't always need to be clean and sharp.

Thanks for taking a look. I'm not sure how closely one can emulate a specific film. The R/G/B numbers are not that different for Agfa, Kodak and Ilford. But, it is fun to fool around with it, although you can find that you end up wasting a lot of time :-)

i will say to you even more. one can get very different results and the look of the results in the same kind of film exposed differently developed aggressively or fragilely, with different chemicals, different dilution, different scanners, and scanning programs.
