This is an area not far from Sydney Australia. When I visited Australia in 2002 the only medium format cameras I owned were two Sputniks. I shot a number of successful hypers with the two cameras, covering one lens on each and advancing the film one exposure at a time. I think I had the two cameras four feet apart on separate tripods here. Velvia 100F.
Photographed at the Coney Island Mermaid Parade, I think in 2015. I used a TL-120, that camera can take amazing close-up portraits. Provia 100F pushed one stop. I used a Vivitar 285H fill-flash at half power with a plastic diffusor, the subject provided lots of nice reflective surfaces for the flash.
The only way to avoid the crowds around St. Peters is to get up at the crack of dawn. This was photographed shortly after sunrise with a Stereoflektoscop using Provia 100F pushed one stop. Vivitar 285H fill flash used. I was using the “Bulb” setting, probably a two second exposure based on incident metering.
This is a fountain at a Confucian temple in Tai Pei Tawain. Photographed May 2012 with a TL-120 using Provia 100F pushed one stop. Vivitar 285H fill flash used, although I don’t think it had much impact at this distance.

This shot is from 2000, I took it with my carefully adjusted Sputnik with a Vivitar 285H fill flash on a tripod. Probably 8 seconds at f16. This is an example of the terrific results the Sputnik can produce, this is one of my all time favorite slides.
The center island of the Miracle Mile in Coral Gables is lined with these trees. I used a TL-120 on a tripod with a Vivitar 285H fill flash, this was taken after sunset. The fill flash brings out a little touch of detail in the passing cars. I used an incident meter to determine the exposure, hoping to bring out the detail in the trees at the expense of blowing out the store in the background. I think this was a 30 seconds at f22.
This is the famous Infinity Pool at the top of the Sands three-tower hotel in Singapore. You’ll find a lot of images online of this pool that feature the illusion that the back edge of the water drops off to the Singapore skyline, you’d think swimmers were in danger of falling off. This shot shows why they aren’t.
May 2018. I used a TL-120 with Provia 100F pushed one stop.
Photographed with twin Mamiya C220 cameras with 135mm lenses. I used Provia 100F pushed one stop. I’m fond of the surreal effect of slightly hyper images taken with zoom lenses. If I take the time to calibrate the twin release cable the Mamiya shutters are easy to sync up. You can see a bird flying in the distance in this shot with no rivalry.
Photographed with twin Yashica-Mat 124s, Provia 100F pushed a stop.
In 2005 the Philadelphia Center City District used banks of precisely targeted L.E.D.s to “paint” different city buildings with light.
Photographed with twin Mamiya C220 TLRs with 135mm lenses. Ilford Pan-F (rated at ISO 25) with DR-5 processing.
I’m very fond of the surreal results of slightly hyper shooting combined with zoom lenses.
One of the many costumed attendees at the Comic-con.
I used a TL-120 with Vivitar 285H flash/plastic diffusor. Provia 100F pushed one stop. I love the”hyper-realistic” portraits the TL-120 can produce.
This is a smaller pagoda that is near Yangon’s Shwedegon Pagoda.
Photographed with twin Mamiya C220 TLRs using 135mm lenses and a tripod.
Provia 100F pushed one stop, exposure was probably 1/125 @f22.
The Schwedegon Pagoda is considered to be the most sacred Buddhist temple in Myanmar.
Photographed with twin Mamiya C220s using 135mm lenses, I used a tripod. Prove 100F pushed one stop. Probably a 15 second exposure at f22.
This is the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall located 45 miles from Beijing. It is one of the most thoroughly restored segments of the wall.
Photographed with a TL-120 using Provia 100F pushed one stop. No tripod, I get good results with this camera using a waist-level finder and letting it hang around my neck.
