Bowlus Joshua Park

Another show with my 1935 Bowlus Road Chief on our recent trip from Toronto to California and back.  Loved this area of Joshua Tree National Park near Palm Springs.  I did alot of climbing over the rock for different angles.  Sorry the rock is slightly out of focus.  I shot f22 but I guess not enough DOF.  I was shoting most mono (sorry).  For those that are intrigued by my trailer fascination check my Bowlus pages for some other mono (sorry) pics of the trip.

3D World f22 at 1/60 Tripod Provia F

New York Parade

I was hanging out the window of my hotel for this shot.  It was a St. Patrick day parade staging grounds.  Lot of action, a complex image that I feel is stereo photograpy’s strength.  Somehow this image reminds me of Paul Shay’s photographs, on one hand it is clearly street photography but the subject somehow seemed staged, sort of like Jeff Wall’s photography.

3D World Provia handheld (which is rare for me)… I was worried I was going to drop the camera on someone.

Ships of the Desert

My travel trailer called a Bowlus Road Chief was built in 1935 and the house called “Ship
of the Desert” was built in 1936, both of the Streamline Moderne movement.  I set up this shoot early in the morning but didn’t get out the 3D camera until the sun came up.  For those interested in the weird trailer you can find information at my site www.openthinkinc.com/bowlus

Using my 3DWorld probably f16 at 1/125 Provia F

Playing chess, big chess

Does the blur signify motion and dynamism in 3D like it can in 2D, or is it a problem? Do we have less tolerance for movement in 3D? If yes, is it just a convention or do we need to be able to see the entire image clearly for the illusion to work well? I have another shot of this scene without the chess players that is clear but static.

Original slide shot August 24, 2010 at the Hariot Bay Inn on Quadra Island in British Columbia with a tripod-mounted Heidoscop with Provia 100P at 1/100th at f25.

Reaching for the ray of sun

Certain species of trees, such as the Western hemlock in the foreground, tolerate shade and remain small for years in the undergrowth waiting for an opening in the canopy to initiate rapid growth.

Original slide shot August 23, 2010 off the Lupin Falls Trail in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island in British Columbia with a tripod-mounted Heidoscop with Provia 100P at 1 second at f25.
