Kilted Photoshoot

The funny thing about this shoot was that he was wearing all of my clothes

That explains why I assumed he was you - the outfit is the same as in your Christmas Parade thread - but on revisiting this I can see that the wearer is different!

For this shoot, I used a Hasselblad 501c with a 80mm Planar 2.8 Zeiss lens, 35mm mask for 4x6 prints on 100 ISO Ilford Delta film, and all natural lighting with a reflector screen (to fill in shadowy areas).

I have yet to scan in the negatives and play with them on Photoshop, but I'm pretty pleased with the raw results.

Excellent equipment.

Great shots. I also like to dabble a little myself as the name aludes to. I supose I need to post some of my photos to.

Not to sound too picky but isn't Ilford Delta black and White film?

Yes, you're right! I was wrong, it was Kodak 100 ISO. I forgot to remove the Ilford label from my film cartrige. Thank you for pointing that out.

No worries - nice available light photos - keep up the good work!

The funny thing about this shoot was that he was wearing all of my clothes, but he's about 5 sizes smaller than me. If you were to look at his from behind, you'd see about a dozen clothespins holdind the kilt up and the jacket tight. Oh, the magic of film.

Oh, so true! For our photos in Boot Camp as Marines they had only a few dress blue 'blouses' (jackets), cut up the back so they could fit several sizes - and they still managed to get decent portraits of our entire platoon of 100 or so!

Ah, the difference between appearance and reality...
