Submission 2014

I wanted to dedicate my submission this year to David Lee, who was a great master of medium format 3d and who I was lucky enough to meet.  His work has been an inspiration to me.

  1. Busan Igidae park, this was a beautiful park, this picture was taken on a windy day with the waves crashing in the foreground, and the Busan skyline, and bridge in the background. This was shot with the tl120 at f/11 1/250.
  2. Gyeogju, this is a hyperstereo with 50 foot separation Fuji gf670w fuji velvia.
  3. San Francisco. I took this picture in San Francisco, please excuse, the ship motion artifacts between the two shots. Fuji gf670w 60 foot separation.  David Lee met me and drove me up to the viewpoint for this shot.
  4. Gyeongju temple:  This is a wooden bell in the temple on one of the excursions of ISU Korea 2015.

Thank you for allowing me to share my work.  I have enjoyed yours on this round

Submission 2014

Thanks for allowing me to share my images.  I’ve enjoyed your beautiful work

  1. San Francisco 2013 Fuji gf670w  Ektachrome e 100g  20 foot separation
  2. NYC 2013 Fuji gf670w  Ektachrome e 100g  30 foot separation
  3. National Railroad Museum Rusted old Dodge.  EFKE 25 processed by DR5  TL120
  4. National Railroad Museum Steam Engine  EFKE 25 processed by DR5  TL120

I was inspired by David Lee’s great hyperstereos to try shooting some of my own.  My first attempt was from the Mark hotel in San Francisco, My second from a rooftop bar in NYC.

The others are EFKE 25 DR5 transparencies shot at the National Railroad Museum in Wisconsin.  We just had a 3rd boy and moved to Long Island.  I also started a new job, so we’ve been busy.  I wouldve liked to attend the NSA this year, but maybe some time soon.  If any of you are in NYC drop me a line, perhaps we can meet for some mf3d or other photography

Thank you,

Nik Sekhar

Submission 3

This is my 3rd submission to the folio.   It is an honor and privilege to share my slides and view the wonderful work of the other participants. It was fun to meet some of you at this year’s NSA and I look forward to meeting you again soon.

 

 

 

 

 

Koi: This was shot at the Mission  San Juan Capsitrano during the NSA field trip.  All are shot with TL120,  This was Velvia 100 at f 16, 1/125

Alice and Mom:  This is my wife and her mother Efke 25, sb28 flash at auto f8.

Flower arrangement: f22 1s velvia

Hummingbird and Quen Mary:  This was shot during the NSA trip.  I was lucky enough to catch this Hummingbird fly into the scene.   I love the contrast in scale.  Velvia f22 1/60

 

 

Submission 2

Ducks Lake Winnebago

Velvia 100 and TL120(used for all)  Exposure f16 1/30

I used the reeds as a 3d frame for the ducks.  I like to underexpose velvia a bit to saturate the color.

My son, Efke 25, Nikon Sb 28 flash on auto f8

I love this film for portraits, grainless with excellent latitude.  Please try it and DR5 if you haven’t yet.

Purple Tree at Riverside Park Neenah Velvia 100

Also slightly underexposed to saturate the color.  I think trees are the perfect subject for 3d,  I think this was f16 1/125

Myrtle Falls Mt. Rainier Velvia 100

I used f8 and 1/500 for this to eliminate the need for the tripod.  Probably one of the few shots that I’ve used the top shutter speed for.  Still adequate depth of field at infinity, but if you are really looking for it. Some forground needles are slightly soft.  I love this place and hopefully will get to use the Tl- 120 in  few more National Parks.  Long Live Slide Film!
