  • Black and white film photography | Dandenong Ranges National Park
    In this video, I gave a few new things a go.
    If you've seen some of my older videos you'll have noticed I'm not very talkative when I get out with the camera, but this time I've tried to explain what I'm doing as I go.
    I also shot, developed, and scanned the photos I took completely independently.
    And sorry for the garbage audio, I'm working on that, I promise...
    Let me know what you think!

    Hi, g'morning Alex. at least for me, it's morning. I'm in Barbados . Yeah, I did enjoy the video. As you said, I also liked the first 2 images but in reverse order...as for the 3rd and 4th, I'm thinking just a hint of a burst of flash from the left as we viewed the image , especially #4 or you could try the image at a differenttime of day to get that back lighting...here in Barbados we don't have areas as vast as you do in Australia but that's the sort of photography that I love, so keep shooting and I'll be looking out for your images in future..have a great day safely...

    You are so lucky having those Lyrebirds come out to feed, I've been going up to the ranges for the past 50 years and have only spotted them three times , never have been able to capture an image though. Like the tree shoots.

      Thanks for watching, Mike!
      Wow, I didn't know it was so rare to see them out that way! It was a really lucky coincidence I happened to have the camera in my hand when I saw them, they were there for a quick moment and disappeared into the bush soon after.

    Super zdjęcia. Fajne kadrowanie. Bardzo dobry sposób przedstawiania całego procesu wyboru ujęcia. Naprawdę genialne! Podoba mi się. Dziękuję za ten film bo jest bardzo pouczający dla mnie. Kciuk w górę :)

      Thanks, man! Still need to work on talking to the camera, but it was good trying something different and being a bit more talkative this time around. Definitely, something I'll keep working on in the future.

    Great pictures. I am really into B&W photos. I like how you went step by step to how you created your shots. I t gave a greater understanding of the craft.

    Nice video Alex! I really enjoyed seeing your photography in an Australian forest. It brings back memories from four trips that I took to Australia between 2008 and 2012.

    I really liked your photos and that developing effect when presenting the image was too cool.

      Thanks Bruno! I'm glad you noticed that, I thought it worked well too.

    Thanks for sharing your photographic journey
    Lovely to see pictures from places I probably never experience with my own eyes
    Have you tried pushing your bw Film about one or even two stops - I know it’s an open secret but personally, I really do like the look of it
    Love to photography from Germany :)
    Thank you

    Top work, mate! Very nicely done and an informative video.

      Thanks, mate! Appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. I tried to do this one a little differently from how I had before with a bit more commentary.

    Nice video, and that location in Victoria looks like a calming place to walk around. I actually liked the third photo as my favourite from the set. Keep up with the videos

    • @alexforsyth4786
      @alexforsyth4786  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It really is a great place for a walk, with or without the camera. Thanks for watching, Nick!

    Nice photos and very inspiring video (plus, this park looks amazing! hope I can visit someday) greetings from Spain :)

    • @alexforsyth4786
      @alexforsyth4786  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Mariana! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It's a beautiful park, I'm sure you'd love it if you ever get the chance to make it all the way down here from Spain!
      I'd love the chance to see a few places out your way too.

    I’m new to your channel & enjoyed your video. talking through your settings on each shot is great. I have only shot a couple of rolls of Pan F on 35mm but love the way it renders tones. Your photos have encouraged me to try it on medium format. thanks for sharing & keep going Alex!

    • @alexforsyth4786
      @alexforsyth4786  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much for watching and for your kind words, Andrew!
      It's a great stock and has become my favourite/go to black and white roll, you should definitely give it a go on medium format.
      It's been a while since posts because of lockdown here in Melbourne, but stay tuned, now that things have opened up again, I hope to be out again and shooting more stills and videos before long.

    Not sure if I'm here for the photography or to see the amazing Australian landscapes that I still miss after 15 yrs 🤔...bit of both perhaps

    Beautiful video. I am not knocking the photos you took (long low branching, dead and rotten tree trunks) but the light filtering through foliage just after you enter the park is exquisite. I am jealous. Kinda shows the capability of the (digital) video camera. Looking forward to seeing B&W photos from within the forest. Don’t be afraid to use faster film

      HA! Not a completely unfair assessment. Thanks for coming by and watching as far as you did anyway.
