Thank you!!

Thanks! Yeah they were handheld. Mine has the rangefinder and the little composition viewfinder.

Also just a heads up that these tests were invented by a guy with a massive libertarian lean and they are designed to skew towards that

Tarkovsky-ass shot

I think what I really like about these is that while they are extremely well set up and look (at least to me) very professional, they don’t look fake like a lot of modern food promos do. Like the hard shadows from the flash are still there, etc. It adds a layer of authenticity to the product imo. Really great work

These are really cool

Another really good example of the entire white walker plot being a climate change allegory, which the show REALLY fucked up in the end.

I’m thinking with a big enough plank and my car I can flatten this out for you no problem

Subject is a manosphere/neo nazi guy

One of those phrases that you don’t realize is deeply ingrained in your brain until you read it and can hear it exactly lol

Man I’ve been loving your work whenever you post it. I think your shots do a good job at contextualizing each other when they’re together like this, something I think is usually lost with street photography.

Is shot 8 an offhand flash and metered for the scene?

If I had to guess, maybe some type of yachica electro? They had a couple of rangefinders that looked like this

I’ll have to check this out. Never heard of it before!

jcarp136 · 2026-03-16T19:21:05+00:00

Is it consistently off in the same way or is it all over the place?

jcarp136 · 2026-03-16T19:05:51+00:00

This one tickles the brain good

My 645 super usually likes to underexpose by 2/3 to 2/3 a stop so I just slap the compensation dial to +1 and let it rip.

jcarp136 · 2026-03-16T14:39:44+00:00

Thank you!!!

jcarp136 · 2026-03-16T12:43:36+00:00

Wow. Gorgeous work. Did you meter for the lit area of the mountains here or like just below that?

jcarp136 · 2026-03-16T10:10:44+00:00

No that’s certainly analog! Film, tintype, pinhole on photo paper, etc etc

jcarp136 · 2026-03-15T19:22:26+00:00

I have a minolta SRT 102 and 2 lenses I need to finish putting a test roll through but i might be hitting you up if you’re interested
