Pismo Beach is such a great place. Of all the California beaches, it may be one of my favorites. #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #mediumformatphotography #hasselblad #hasselblad203fe #californiabeaches #pismobeach https://www.instagram.com/richardmanphoto/p/BxIoWsonpOO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vp1t3471p1tt

"Chains" seriously, these are some well-worn chains, and oh yea, Golden Gate bathed in golden light. #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #mediumformatphotography #hasselblad #hasselbladswc https://www.instagram.com/richardmanphoto/p/BwpsqxsnB9z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nrvz3amct16n

A major difficulty of doing a portrait project of transgender and non-binary people is just to get people willing to out themselves and stand in front of the camera. I try to protect their privacy by only using their first names or pseudonyms. Nevertheless the project progress is slow and there is a dearth of trans people of colors in the project. I am really glad that Sera agrees to be photographed. She is an activist, responsible for bringing the trans march to the San Jose Pride march. #heartsonoursleeves #transgender #ordinarypeople #genderfluid #genderidentity #gendernonbinary #gendernonconforming #genderexpansivecommunity #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #largeformatphotography #largeformat #gibellinicamera #cookeps945 #portra160 #kodakportra #kodakportra160 https://www.instagram.com/richardmanphoto/p/Bv2xqcElWJ_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1bo18b68zs056

"Storm Over Pigeon Point" I have lived in a few places, and I have never seen rain "curtains" like this except in California. Whether you can rain on or not can depend on whether you can right under a dark band or not. #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #largeformatphotography #largeformat #gibellinicamera https://www.instagram.com/richardmanphoto/p/Bu4ZhRolRu4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=113ezs507r3nx

The Hasselblad 110/2 is one of the best portrait lens ever, ceding the crown perhaps only to the Cooke PS945, but the Cooke is a large format lens. I can shoot film forever because of these two lenses. They are just incomparable. Also, this is handheld at 1/30th, so it's possible to have reasonably sharp photo even at low speed with good techniques. (there is no "sensor shift" with film cameras, of course :-) ) #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #mediumformatphotography #hasselblad #hasselblad203fe https://www.instagram.com/p/BuMojGil1R2/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=k4v6azbfdati

The new TCN45 #gibellinicamera is here! I had to sell my other 4x5 couple other things but looks like this will work out just fine. It's 4 lbs 4 ozs, more than 1.5 lbs lighter than the ACN45 Gibellini and works pretty much the same. I also had the front standard modified so it can do asymmetrical tilt. Like its bigger sibling, it handles the larger lens on the Copal 3 shutter with no problem! I will take it out for a field test this weekend, but this should be much easier on my shoulder. #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #largeformatphotography #largeformat #gibellinicamera #corgisofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BuK3jatlPtW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hltr75wejk5g

Normally I use two different backs with my Hasselblad, but one needs a CLA (Clean Lube Adjust) and I can't afford to right now. I was shooting with B&W film and my wife said. "oh wow, look at the sunset!" I hurriedly finish the B&W and put in a roll of Portra 400 and barely managed to catch this before the sun disappeared. #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #mediumformatphotography #hasselblad #hasselblad203fe https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUNZCKlfxR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1n89ar0fqm75b

Another photo of @jazikinn I only took a few cosplay photos at #ala2019 but she is so good and so much fun. This is on my "smaller" (ha ha) Hasselblad medium format camera. Part of my project "Transformations:Cosplay - portraits of costumers in their costumes and civilian attire, on 4x5 large format film" #transformationscosplay #cosplay #imaconflextightscan #filmisnotdead #ishootfilm #kodakmoment #mediumformatphotography #hasselblad #hasselblad203fe https://www.instagram.com/p/BtT6lV0nwYW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=r5497aeqcj9v

Last photo using the Chamonix F1. I am selling it to finance a light weight #gibellinicamera TCN45. The lens is NOT FOR SALE (ha ha), the un-obtainium Congo 150 SF.

It's complicated. Ward is AFAB (Assigned Female At Birth) and gay. Reworking a portrait I took in April 2018.
