hip to be square


Having worked with a square format for years and years, I am still quite partial to it. The digital Hasselblad is not like it's 6 x 6 analog ancestor; it is 6 x 7. I am growing to like that arrangement, but on occasion I find that nothing but the lovely square will do.

It simply means I have to pre-visualize the square when I'm shooting. Sometimes it doesn't work.

But other times it does.

Went to read about Douglas and spent an hour reading and taking in all the beautiful faces. Henry is too much. Great work.!
