Behind The Lens

Location

This is shot in the capitol of Norway, Oslo

Time

This photo is shot early morning, it depends what light I want for the scene.

Lighting

You can get a good scene in sunrise/sunset, but also with very limited light.

Equipment

I carried light on this day, the Mamiya c330s with the 80mm f2.8 lens at f5.6 1 sek. and a tripod.

Inspiration

I'm always looking for the light to fall in a special or "unusual" way. I'm striving to get a classic feel or mood in my photos, keeping it simple

Editing

The post processing I do, is in the dark-room. I print on 40x50 fiber based paper. The only digital I do is scanning the negative for posting on web.

In my camera bag

What equipment I have in my bag varies what I'm going to shoot, or if I have to carry light. or can bring more heavy equipment. I carry the Mamiya c330s with 65mm,80mm 180mm and 250mm, or the Mamiya RZ67 normally with 50mm/65mm, 90mm/110mm one of the 180mm, 250mm, the Fuji GX680iii with 65mm, 100mm, 180mm, the Fuji GW690 or GW670, both with fixed 90mm lens, or the Linhof Master Tech Classics with 105mm, 150mm, 250mm, 360mm. If I want to carry ultra light, I use cameras that shoots 135 film - Tripod. I use the 1 degree meter Sekonic l-758DR for demanding lighting situations. Then I can place the shadows, mid tones and highlight in the zones needed.

Feedback

In this particular photo I metered the highlights, mid tones and shadows, and did an average exposure. I could also have metered the shadows and lower mid tones, and developed for the highlights. (Shortened the development time of the film)
