Niagara Falls State Park photo exhibit in Buffalo

錄 [memo] 2011. 11. 4. 11:40

I picked up my matted B & W prints for upcoming Exhibit in Buffalo which I participate in. I prepared my humble six prints in the darkroom last two months. All the prints were taken with my film panoramic camera(135 format), Widelux F7. Some of them are candid shots and others are not. But all photos are taken at Niagra Falls State Park(NFSP). Since there were no film holder for enlarger for this panoramic format, I made it by myself and tried in several different ways. Trial & errors. Although I didn't attend any photography class, I believe that that is how we learn about everything.

There are more works about Niagara Falls by other serious photographers.
This exhibit will start from this Saturday(Nov.5th) with reception til Dec.31 by end of this year.

I am learning film processing & printing since February whenever I have time on Saturday, I drove to downtown Buffalo where the free art school is located. Due to my work schedule, I couldn't make it during week days. I can make it only on Saturday 3~4 hours. With limited time, my poor skills and knowledge, I just prepared six prints. :)

This free art school has been established from 1955 by Molly Bethel. Since then she keeps running this art school for free to everyone. I think this free art school is very precious assets in Buffalo.
