"Anaglyph"
General advice, Click to enlarge and use red/cyan glasses to feel the depth..


A camera, no matter how many features it may have, is a lifeless piece of equipment until the right person uses it. It then becomes a uniquely responsive tool- and extension of the photographer's eye and mind.
Published Photographs are here to give you an impression what a 60 year old lens is capable of...
N O T E : Most people seem not to notice the special characteristics of the Aero Ektar.(actually a g o o d thing) For those who do, it can be the ultimate tool to express themselves!

W A R N I N G : If your only tool is a Speed Graphic/Aero Ektar , every subject seems to resemble a decent Photograph

"Cactus"
© John Lawrence  2007)

Artist comment: Speed Graphic/Aero Ektar combination. The film was 120 technical pan, Kodak, shot with a Horseman roll film 612 back and processed in Rodinal 1:100 ( my favorite combination for film and developer ) and then scanned to make small jpgs.
I tell people that life is like photographing cactus,..........full of little pricks.
I have a website with floral (cactus )taken with the SuperG at: johnlawrencephotography.com
