I’m in the process of revisiting old negatives, poring over some subjects and projects that ran one direction, and now seeing them with a fresh set of eyes after several years. This started with the idea of exploring several projects that never made it into a final state, book form, that I’d intended while photographing them. So, I’ve put together a set-up for scanning 4×5, 120, and 35mm film with a stable back light, as well as scanning already printed photos that are single prints that don’t exist anywhere else.
This photo is from a series of large format photos during a trip across part of Scandinavia. The large format camera came out whenever we would go for a walk and time allowed for the deep process involved with the format. Whenever there wasn’t enough time I used a 35mm camera for expedience, and that’s a whole other body of work.
