Presidio County Courthouse, Marfa, Texas

by dorothy mladenka

This is the original courthouse in Presidio County, Texas built in 1886. It was restored a few years back. Too bad I couldn’t have people in it as it would be more interesting, like a cop taking in a suspect. But this was early on a Sunday morning. I used the TL120. Settings are rarely remembered. Marfa is the town where the movie “Giant” was filmed. Also, it is well known for the Marfa lights, a nighttime phenomena that we didn’t get to witness.

  • Kyuquot Seaweed

I took this with my trusty 3D World with Provia F probably at f11 or f16 which is my standard f stop.  I always use a tripod so exposure was 1/8 or so since it was early in the morning.  I have been shooting seaweed at low tide for about three years now and it always fascinates me the saturation, colour and abstract design.  Kyuquot is a very small village on the west coast of Vancouver Island in BC where I spend my summers.  There are no road and everyone only uses boats to get around as we live on 11 different islands.  There is a post office, general store, clinic, hotel, small restaurant, and boat through espresso bar… what more do you want?

  • Kyuquot Starfish

I also took this with my  3D World with Provia F probably at f11 or f16  at 1/15 or so.  I found this little starfish at low tide and found it arms reminded me of Andre Kertesz, Satiric Dancer.

  • Treehouse

I took this with my Rolleidoscop with Provia F not sure of the exposure.  This is a treehouse room in a unique hotel that is in the trees in Southern Oregon, kind of like Swiss Family Robinson.  The place is called Out’n’About Treehouse Treesort for those interested in an interesting adventure:)

  • Kyuquot Fog

3D World with Provia F probably at f8 or f11,  exposure was 1/2 as it was dark.  I love when the fog rolls in and it is best to stay put and photograp.

Zero Gravity & Rockets #2

Zero Gravity & Rockets #2I’d been to the Puyallup (pyoo AL ip) Spring Fair on Friday night and saw a poster advertising fireworks on Saturday “at around 9pm.” I made the trek the next night, got there early, scouted where the fireworks would be and what I could get in my foreground, etc. My plan was to shoot with the TL-120, and I started capturing other images while I waited. At 8pm I had just finished a roll in the TL-120 when I started hearing boom-boom-boom behind me. Not knowing how long the fireworks would last, I zipped up my backpack, grabbed both tripods with cameras already set, and hurried over to my spot. I would have done much better with the TL-120, since I would only have to wind one camera, and there’s more to check on the 2 Hasselblads. And sync is not an issue on the TL-120.

This is from my early days with my “Don-Lopp-modified-Sputnik.” We try to visit NYC every other year during the winter holidays. This is from a late-night visit to the NYC library. I spot metered around the scene. It’s quite dark there at night, with a little bit of ambient light from the traffic.

Provia 100F, f22, 80 seconds.

I took a photo trip to the Palouse last year. It’s an area of Eastern Washington/Western Idaho that’s filled with rolling hills and old farms. the combination makes for some striking scenery, with lots of opportunities for photo-graphics. That said, a lot of those opportunities are seized using different lenses. Not an option on my TL-120. But I wanted to include a shot from my trip. It’s a well-worn route for photographers, and this truck was clearly left out front for the photo op. TL-120, Velvia 50, f22, shutter speed unrecorded.
