Classic studio light


My studio techniques always fallowed the tenet of keeping it simple. One umbrella and a reflector or just window light and a reflector. My old studio on East 26 Street faced north so I had ideal light. Both of these shots used window light with a reflector. The film was good old Tri-X Pan and the camera was the Nikon F with the Nikkor 105 F 2.5 lens. A combination made in heaven.

This shot was made in Lido D'ostia, near Rome, looking South with the setting sun to the west. It captures "the capturing of the light."

I love this shot

I consider this a true classic that just happened. It was shot with the Nikonos II under water camera that I used during inclement weather and the 35 F 2.5 UW Nikkor on Tri-X Pan film. The place was Hoyt Street in Brooklyn.

Elegant lady

In may work, many assignments bordered on the routine and the prosaic. Nevertheless, I always tried to come home with a image or two that <I could be proud of. This elegant woman was photographed ad a ball many years ago. It was shot on  Fuji 400 color negative film with the Nikon F03 and the 105 F 2.5 Nikkor lens.
