this is brad evans, talented street portrait shooter.

last weekend a group i’m in on flickr held a bar-b-que in golden gate park. i brought my burke&james camera and holders loaded with 320TXP. i shot portraits of some of the group using the gundlach rapid rectigraphic. these are contact printed onto ilford mgd.1m paper with a #3 filter. these dark images are so nice on paper in front of your eyes, and i can never get the scans to look just right.

coy, with his partner erwin.

it was also wonderful to spend time in the darkroom again. i vowed to not post negative scans as much, while producing more physical prints this year. the negatives from this set turned out very evenly exposed, so printing was very easy. i think the 8×10 is my favorite portrait camera by far.
