God, it seems like a lifetime ago. I had this idea to enter some of my 3D film photos into this Austrian photography contest. Figured I’d take a chance and see if there were any decent results from it. Well … Those were the photos I entered. And yesterday, I checked the competition’s online website…

And off go my entries to the 2020 3D Photography Competition…
Deadline came up quickly. But between all my various setbacks this year, I’m still harboring a desire to compete in Competition Season 2020, no matter what or where that “competition season” might entail. And right off the bat, I’ve finally decided on my entries for the 2020 International 3D Stereo Photo Contest in Vienna, Austria. …
Read MoreA sharper focus with a set of bellows
I’m currently working on sharpening my skills with macro photography. I’ve invested in high-power macro lenses, I’ve bought a macro focusing rail to move the camera into sharp, tight focus, and I’ve improved my focus stacking capabilities. But I have a feeling that the one new item I’ve acquired may help me really claim a…

More 3D tests … and I promise to cut down on the flashing images
Last week, I packed two rolls of Fuji 400 film into my two Nikon EM cameras for another test of my c’est schisse 3D film photography experiment. And before I post these images … I am going to apologize to you, my beloved blog readers, for giving you headaches in past blogs regarding this experiment.…

The Dry Test at Saratoga Harness
Okay. I’ve got my “new-to-me” Nikon EM cameras – which I’ve combined in a c’est schisse format to hopefully create stereo photos, and now it’s time to test out my photographic plans. Work with me on this. First, take a look at the frames from this vintage 1960’s-era View-Master photo set. Well now. These are…
Read MoreMy Homemade Nikon c’est schisse Camera System
What, you’ve never heard of the Nikon c’est schisse camera system? Let me explain. I love three-dimensional photography, and over time I’ve purchased various single-use cameras to help me create this effect – the Trio3D and the Nimslo and the Kodak Realist, for example. But these cameras are not as strong as I want. They’re…
Read MoreA new competition in 2020, for three-dimensional images
I’ve dabbled in three-dimensional film photography for several years. I’ve never really won any awards with these prints, but that hasn’t stopped me from continuing to do what I can. And I’m thinking that the only way to make this actually work to my advantage is to take my three-dimensional photo skills and aim them…

Five Tickets to Ride Day and Night
After my recent success in mixing vintage Verichrome Pan film with Kodak Instamatic film (88 Minutes in Chinatown), I wanted to try this splitfilm trick again. And I wanted to create something that was a “day versus night” exposure, using the lights of an amusement park or the midway of a county fair to build…
Read MoreA return to the “Ladies Entrance” sign
Last year, my model friend Muse posed in front of a distressed sign on North Lake Avenue in Albany. The picture, Ladies Make Their Own Entrances, later found its way to the Historic Albany Foundation’s BUILT charitable auction. The other day, as I’m testing out some redscale film in my Leica M3 camera (“Leica Green”),…
