Rückblick | Review 07/03/2016

Die Wolkenschiffe fahren übers Land
und lassen ihre schweren Ketten schleifen
sie könnten reißen wenn die Anker fassen
sie zu bewegen umzukehren

die Wolkenschiffe aber lassen
sich nicht bewegen umzukehren
sich nicht bewegen

(Wolf Biermann)

San Francisco has a nice mid-range fine-art print shop called Photoworks (in the Castro District) that makes excellent photographic enlargements.

Up until yesterday, I'd have described them as "high-end," but that was before I found this print shop in Alexandria, VA. I'm moving into a new place, blank walls to decorate, so I sent them three of my favorite files and asked for a quote.

TIL: They don't want my business. My photos don't qualify as "fine art," not by their lights.

Oh, well. 😲

This is one of my favorites: the lighthouse near Bajamar, Tenerife, Spain. El Faro de la Punta del Hidalgo. I rented a room near this lighthouse in Dec 2023 specifically to photograph it. For this shot, I spent 30 minutes late on Christmas Eve taking test shots before I dialed in the right exposure settings.

#Pentax K-S2 with smc DA 21mm F3.2 Limited. ƒ/7/1, 30 FREAKING SECONDS @ ISO 400. CPL used as an ND filter to stretch out exposure time.

All the effort and patience in the world do not, by themselves, confer "art" on a bad photograph. The magic still has to happen.

By my lights, it's a nifty shot. Maybe good old Photoworks back in SF would agree to print it for me?

a color outdoor photograph. a modern, almost minimalist lighthouse stands on a small cliff under the light of a few dozen stars. below the cliff, waves crash. it is a dark night, and the lighthouse is the only man-made object for miles around. the light from the beacon forms a pointed star of flare. there are no people, animals, or vehicles in this photograph.

More photos from Shelter Cove, California. The Cape Mendocino Lighthouse was relocated to this town in the 1980s after the lighthouse was "retired" by the Coast Guard.

#Pentax K-S2 with smc DA 21mm F3.2 Limited (images 1 and 2) and DA 15mm F4 Limited (image 3). The #starburst patterns are typical of the DA Limited line of lenses.

Photographed September 2024. Thank you for looking.

a color outdoor photograph. a short, stocky lighthouse with a red roof and white barrel body gleams in the sunset. the ocean is below a small cliff. a sunlit wooden fence occupies the foreground. there are no animals, people, or vehicles in this picture.
a color outdoor photograph. a short, stocky lighthouse with a red roof and white barrel body glows as the morning sun shines through the glass windows atop the structure. behind the lighthouse are a few sailing masts, as at a marina, and beyond those a low mountain or wooded hill. there are no animals, people, or vehicles in this picture.
