It was the last day, and very overcrowded. Amazing, and you suddenly realise how a small handfull of people in the the last 50 years have affected and shaped the way we see photogrpahy as a medium now. She was one of them.<br /><br />This montage of the entrance hall to the museum was a bit of a hurried job and feels like a sketch for going back and getting it right the second time round.simonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01436153995157255334noreply@blogger.com21tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9033671.post-1136720491703502072006-01-08T11:37:00.000+00:002006-01-18T12:33:01.380+00:00<p id="subnav">::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/11/057.html">PREVIOUS</a> ::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2006/01/059.html">NEXT</a> ::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/02/about.html" class="about">ABOUT</a> ::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/07/elsewhere.html">ELSEWHERE</a> :::<br /></p><br /><img style="border: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 0); margin: 2px;" src="http://static.flickr.com/43/77668730_42da96e36e_o.jpg" alt="merrygoround_montage_sm_lo" height="650" width="630" /><br />I have been neglecting my photoblog!

I have been busy and something had to give. I've still been making images of course, but they just haven't been getting as far as the www. I should be back on track now.<br /><br />In the interim period I have been learning about all sorts. I have developed several b &amp; w films, the first since I was at school, so that's about 25 years... really exciting. I have been using the Diana camera, which my sweetheart picked up for 10 pence at a jumble sale last year, with amazing results and this sparked off a potentially obsessive thread in building my own panoramic (6x12 or something like that) format camera or at least hacking another camera up to make one. I bought an old Agfa isolette folding bellows camera at a car boot sale for a few pounds and that's proved very fun too.<br /><br />Following a post by <a href="http://jcoglan.com/">Jim Cogland</a> from <a href="http://london.photobloggers.org/">London Photobloggers</a> on the <a href="http://blog.photoblogs.org/2005/05/360degree_photo.html">Photoblogs.org blog</a> I discovered <a href="http://www.autostitch.net/">Autostitch</a> and have been using it quite a lot. I really like what it does, often very beautiful results, though quite different from what I have been doing before. I like both approaches.<br /><br />Oh yes, and the other amazing thing is that I sold 8 photo-montages to the South Bank Centre. I will post some info and images on this subject soon.<br /><br />In the meantime I have posted 2 new images (just use the previous button) and I have a whole stack of new ones more or less ready to go, so come back soon.<br /><br />S<br /></p>simonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01436153995157255334noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9033671.post-1119693446389604492005-06-25T10:57:00.000+01:002005-06-25T11:37:13.010+01:00<p id="subnav">::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/06/035.html">PREVIOUS</a> ::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/06/037.html">NEXT</a> ::: <a href="http://photo-montage.blogspot.com/2005/02/about.html" class="about">ABOUT</a> :::</p><br /><img border='0' style='border:1px solid #000000; margin:2px' src='http://photos1.blogger.com/img/273/2330/900/autostitch_tablechair.jpg'><br />The huge table and chair sculpture on Hampstead Heath.simonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01436153995157255334noreply@blogger.com0
