Hi, Pete,
Personal opinion?
Both could qualify as "street" but neither would elicit more than a cursory glance of cause a breac-in -step in my circulation through the gallery. the first is architectural, and though there are people in the second, they are off to the side, seem not to be niter acting, and all seem to be wasting to go elsewhere.Not he kind of potential story to hold attention.
One guy"s opinion.

Yep,

They are kind of touristy, if that's a word.

Here's one of a tourist.

I think street photography should include an indication of some type of activity usually including people. Here is a "technically" nice photo of a street without people present and another with people and vegetables.

Medium format is not only square. 6.45 x 6, 6x6, 6x7, 6x8, 6x9, 6x12 and 6x17 are all sizes that can be shot on 120 film. 6x7 is my main format. It enlarges to 8x10 without cropping.


Me too

My opinion is # 1

Although I don't know that changing the exposure by pp is actually changing the exposure.

Before photography went digital, there were just a few print sizes. The more popular were 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, and 16x20.

You could have the print fit the frame, or you could have a larger mat to fit the frame, with an opening to fit a picture one size smaller. Everything was simple.

Now I can buy paper in 8.5x11, 13x19, etc. The local Michael's craft store doesn't carry any 8.5x11 mats, so I've decided to buy 32x40 mats and a mat cutter.
Then I will be able to make any size mats I choose. I have a woodworking shop, so I can make custom sized frames.

Can someone tell me what the ideal size mat and frame should be used for an 8.5x11 print or for a 13x19 print?

I know that it is somewhat my own judgement, but your suggestions would be appreciated.

I still have mats and frames using those standards. I generally used the next larger size for the mat. Example 11x14 mat for 8x10 print.

Having said that, please read dpullum's posts. One should not believe these standards are absolute.

Today, if I were going to print something for display I would use a matte finish without covering it with glass. (In my opinion reflections ruin the display). Using an oversize mat is optional.

For the record I am a year older than dpullum (1935).
Everybody wore hats back then but times have changed.

Is it wrong to be completely frustrated with a "photographer" who has no idea what equipment she has nor what said equipment is even capable of? How on earth can you take decent photos if you have no idea what F stop or focal length any of your lenses are and can't even recal the exact type of camera you have? &#128513;
Ok I'm done.


What's really frustrating is when that persons photographs are better than yours.

Hi rpavich

RE: Push processing.

Something I could never bring myself to do. Had to always use reasonably fresh materials.

Even with the zone system I just exposed for the highlights so I didn't have to mess with development by exposing for the shadows.

I am impressed.
