  • DIY How To: Through the Viewfinder Photography

    This is a ‘how to’ do the through the viewfinder or ttv technique written for all of you that have expressed interest recently. It is by no means a rule book because I think each person would approach it differently but this is how I manage it..and remember with ttv really there ARE NO RULES :) It will require you to use that creative imagination but this is honestly half the fun of it!! I should give you some background info firstly, it is rumored to have first been thought of by Mr E on Flickr back in 2005 but there are is no hard proof of this just speculation on my behalf. TTV is still really huge on flickr with hundreds of groups dedicated to the different styles and subjects of ttv eg nature, black&white, manipulated, ferriswheels, self-portraits, etc etc So firstly ..what you are going to need, the essentials; / 1- a twin reflex camera eg. Kodak Duaflex, Argus75, or any other camera that has a large viewfinder. NB Most can be picked up from flea markets or ebay for as little as $5. Most take 620 film that is no longer made/available so this is why they are so cheap plus they are a dime a dozen as they were mass produced in the 1950s & 60’s. / 2- a digital camera with a pretty good macro so you are able to zoom in nice and close to the viewfinder / 3- a tripod certainly helps but isn’t essential / 4- something to block out excess light from above that shines onto your viewfinder glass, this can be a specially made box, a round piece of cardboard, or anything else that will do the job that you have laying about. / 5- a good sense of humor and a healthy dose of patience!! Here’s some of my twin reflex kids / This is the argoflex 75 and the kodak duaflex / This is an ansco and not my gun shells there ..its goose shooting season here and I have included them for size comparison. I wouldn’t recommend the ansco to start with as its really fiddley!! / This is looking down at the ansco’s viewfinder. / This is zooming in as tight as possible with my macro lens. / This is the image that has been cropped and is now ready for what ever colour adjustments or processing you wish to do. / OK so this isn’t my image of choice here but you get the general idea.. / This is a random piece of cardboard tube that I now use to block out excess light reflecting on the viewfinder glass. / Here is the side view..if you insist on being really anal about it you get some ideas for building the exact fit to your camera from flickr here If you would like a really indepth tutorial I can recommend Russ Morris’s here A few other points I’d like to add….some may wonder why go to all this trouble when you can do all of this with photoshop (fake ttvs) well my answer to that is I really like being able to see what image I want to create in the field and quite frankly it is so much more fun and creative to be actually ‘out there’ doing it! Secondly I don’t think all images or concepts are suited to the ttv style so this will be a matter of trial and error to see what fits for you. Lastly -the ttv style is all about embracing age and the antique-look of an image so think carefully about your post processing. Alot of ttv actually looks wonderful all on its own and I think many would be shocked at how little I actually do to some ttvs. Please use this link if you wish to find out more about the different processes and for free photoshop downloads here / that help achieve the vintage, grungey look. A great one to start with is urban acid :) Here’s a few more … / An urban acid ttv There you go…I think thats it?? Let me know if you need to know more or perhaps I’ve left something out…and don’t forget there is a Through the Viewfinder / group for ‘real’ ttvs when you are all ready to go!! Cheers Everyone!!

Im playing with differnt angles & light to see what looks best. I’ve been asked to provide some images of it to put up for sale. So I would love your feedback good & bad…..............please :) Old Port Willunga Jetty / These old Redgum Piles are all that is left of the Jetty at Port Willunga, South Australia. Officially opened on the 6th February 1868. It was built at a cost of 5,300.00 Pounds and replaced previous structures that had failed to assist in the transport of wheat and other local goods such as slate from Willunga. By 1900 all trade using the jetty had ceased and the structure was severely damaged in 1915. During WW2 the remainder of the jetty was destroyed by the Australian Army. Port Willunga Beach Caves / These are the handywork of Bill How, famed local fisherman, also responsible for the lookout atop the cliffs.For decades, Bill and his sons netted scores of fish, with Bill directing proceedings from his cliff top lookout. The caves were used for storing fishing boats and equipment. Bills experience with the 3rd Australian Tunnelling Company during WW1 gave him plenty of practice for cave construction. / / PLEASE VIEW MY GALLERY @ Glenn Alderson Photography Abstract Sunrise & Sunset Ruins & Derelict Buildings Farms & Countryside All Seascapes Botany – Flora Childhood Black & White Birds & Creatures of Flight / © Copyright 2008 Glenn Alderson, All Rights Reserved. / Please note: The watermark shown above will not appear on purchased products.

  • Wooly bugs his eyes as he asks you to repeat your age for him. / Of course, in cat years, you’re probably so ancient he doesn’t believe you could still be alive, hence his stunned expression. RESCUE Wooly was a rescue from a yard sale. He was free. His birth family has died of neglect- but for the last surviving birth family member, the vet scolded me for Wooly’s being obese. Wooly gave him the same look, as in “WHO are you calling OBESE?” Wooly and I were a majority, so we stalked out of the doc’s office in high dudgeon together.

  • Taken with a Canon 50D, Sigma 10-20 lens at 10mm, F11, shutter speed 1/50 second, ISO200, tweaked in Photoshop During our walk on Sunday in the hills around The Old Man of Coniston we were very fortunate with the weather, the fells in the distance with the clouds above them were where we had been only an hour earlier, the contrasts between the sunshine we were in near Dow Crag and the hills around Swirl How were amazing!! If you look very closely when viewed large you can see a white speck about 400 yards away on the ridge which is a person which may give you a sense of scale! We did not get wet all day!
