Salt Flats, southern california timing association

so I went out to the salt flats on friday to do some shooting at the end of speed week.

people were incredibly friendly and it was really cool to see all those cars and speed cycles. a friend told me he did 401mph out there.. thats pretty incredible.. most cars burn alcohol mix. the salt always provides a fantastic enviornment for shooting.

my camera.

this is a beautiful graflex 3x4 super D and really an absolute joy to shoot with.

it has a 1930s cooke f/2.9 lens and a modern graflock back allowing me to shoot 4x5 sheet film or 6x9 on 120.

this is a great camera for so many reasons. mostly because it allows me the larger 4x5 format with the ease of the handheld SLR and also the use of the beautiful cooke lens.

more polaroid 690

so I guess since these are all from state st. thats the name of the series. we have a total of 17 images ( i think) all shot on state st in SLC, Utah with polaroid 690 film and the polaroid 420 camera with plastic lens.

enjoy.

I am about to send out another editorial email promo. I put up a jpeg of that. I hope you like it.





ok so I have been shooting a lot of polaroid lately. I went out and shot a pack of 690yesterday. I got some things I really love. I think content wise, I have hit the nail on the head. here they are for your enjoyment. cyan and flat and nice deep black points. yum yum.
