The Dent.'s photostream
|

In 1999 I spent a year studying at the university of gadjah mada in Yogyakarta Indonesia where due to a group of obsessed amateur and professionals i was introduced to black and white photography.
After learning to take pictures i then taught myself how to develop and print photos during university breaks while holidaying in Auckland New Zealand.
Then i lived in Japan for three years where i travelled overseas extensively and continued to hone my printing and processing skills in my apartment/darkroom.
On my return to Australia i have continued photographing, printing and processing myself. Printing is hard in a small flat so these days i tend to do the films but scan the negs using an epson v700. I am working through the massive backlog of negs i have scanning and posting onto flickr. seems a never ending task.........
My photographs are mainly streetscapes, shots of urban life & development, industry, travel photography and some skating, breakdancing shots.
i like to photograph all facets of a city. not just the beautiful temples and scenic vistas but also the building that have sucummbed to decay, the places where people live, backstreets and roads that form the arteries of any modern meteropolis.
I only use film cameras. first camera was an FM10, then Canon A1, then Nikon F2. These cameras have all now disappeared they have been supplanted by the following kit which is what i am still currently using: Nikon F5 (15mm sigma fish, 18-35mm nikon, 70-210mm nikon), Mamiya 645e (35mm and 80mm), Fuji GW PRO II (90mm).
I mainly used Tri-x and Plus-x kodak black and white.
sometimes Tmax films, FUji Neopan 400 & 1600. Kodak EIR & HIE, Ilford SFX and Konica IR (now discontinued).
for color i nearly always use trannie film - veliva 50 & 100, kodak 100G & GX.
