 Sunday 21st November 2011 Environment Urban spaces

Hand processed negatives and scanned images for my initial City/urban image ideas.
Also blogged are some shots taken with the G11, I prefer the camera angles in several of these shots. Unfortunately the RZ67 couldn't be put in the same position due to issues with ergonomics, I suspect I'll need to use a 5x4 camera to get the desired effect.























 Influences for these images are the following photographers:

Erza Stroller;

Ezra Stoller was born in Chicago in 1915, grew up in New York and graduated from New York University in 1938 with a BFA in industrial design. As a student, he began photographing buildings, models and sculpture. In 1940-1941, Stoller worked with the photographer Paul Strand in the Office of Emergency Management; he was drafted in 1942 and worked as a photographer at the Army Signal Corps Photo Center. He died in Williamstown, Massachusetts, in 2004.
During his long career as an architectural photographer, Stoller worked closely with many of the period’s leading architects, including: Frank Lloyd Wright, Paul Rudolph, Marcel Breuer, I.M. Pei, Gordon Bunshaft, Eero Saarinen, Richard Meier and Mies van der Rohe, among others. Many modern buildings are known and remembered by the images Stoller created. He was uniquely able to visualize the formal and spatial aspirations of modernist architecture. The first time the American Institute of Architects awarded a medal for architectural photography, in 1960, it was given to Ezra Stoller.
