Thanks!

Thank you. Adding 4mm is to give a bit of breathing space (2mm each side) for the print and the backplate.

@ thanks! Appreciate the reply!

Glad it helps! These are pure personal ratings and as an advice for a beginner, I suggest you try to rate your own work too (if possible without comparing it to any other photographer's images) to find out what you like and what not. Always ask the 'why' - before and during composing, while editing and when assessing your work.

Sony A7RIII with adapted vintage lenses. Here the Olympus OM 18mm f/3.5 and Contax Zeiss 100mm f/2.

Danke!

Exactly.

My pleasure!

Haha, I know too good what you mean :) Glad the video was helpful! Cheers

Danke für das Lob! Genau weiss ich es nicht, aber ich tippe mal auf Gipswände. Es hält (hier) auf jeden Fall - hatte es auch schon oft genug mit störrischen Wänden zu tun :) Gruss

Thanks!

Thanks for the hint! I might measure to make sure, but as long as the miters are cut exactly, the frames have always been square so far.

He's cutting at 45° at each corner. 45+45=90. As long as the angle is correct, it has to be square.

With precisely cut miters, the frame becomes square by itself when glued together.

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Thank you very much!

No problem. There was just a similar question and I'm not sure how this tape is called in English. But after some research I think it's electrical tape.

Thanks! I guess that's a translation mistake then. Maybe it's called duct tape? The main properties are a certain elasticity and that it sticks well to the wood, so there is enough tension to glue the corners together.

I did some research and I think it's called electrical tape, which is more elastic than duct tape.

@thomasrhinow it looked like you were using what’s known as ‘masking tape’ in UK English.

@@22jo222 Not sure - isn't masking tape used to cover stuff before painting, the one I used to fix the MDF back plate to the frame? If so, this is not strong and elastic enough to glue the frame together. Meanwhile I'm pretty sure it's called electrical tape.

@ Ah ok, thanks for the clarification.

Awesome, thank you! I've also been thinking about making a post-processing video, but it's a question of how much time I have available. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Thanks! I really enjoyed this shoot.

Thank you :)

Thank you!

Hi! Glad you liked it and let me know. Thanks!

Thank you! The Fuji XT4 with XF 16mm/2.8 is my main filming setup, I'm also using the Sony A7RIII for B-roll as well as a range of vintage manual focus lenses (Contax Zeiss and Olympus OM) on both cameras. And always the Rode Stereo VideoMic X microphone, which is responsible for the great sound.

Thank you!

Many thanks for your motivating comment! Will do, as much as time allows :)

Thanks a lot, I’m glad my work is able to feed your soul 🙂 ! The wind turbine shot is by pretty far my favourite shot of the lot. I would have loved a longer lens than the 100mm I had with me, the image is quite strongly cropped in. But finally an opportunity where the A7RIII's obscenely large files pay off 🙂 Cheers

@thomasrhinow Ahhhhh.... that's helpful about the camera setup. The crop IS fabulous (says this 35mm film shooter 😉). I often try to zoom in to your videos to see what length lens you use. I know my scenario and situation would be different, but it IS an interesting and helpful reference! 😊 Keep up the wonderful storytelling, Thomas. Thanks for the reply !

Yes, I agree. The most difficult was to transform the mood, these kind of landscapes put me in, into photographs. It didn't turn out like I hoped.

Ich auch :) Das war halt in den Ferien - musste mich um die Freunde kümmern ;) Ein paar Szenen sind tatsächlich überbelichtet, aber die Helligkeit sonst kommt vom Color Grading - hab etwas rumexperimentiert. Ich liebe öde Landschaften, da geht mir das Herz auf!

Glad you like it and thanks for letting me know!

Thank you for always stopping by and leaving a nice comment! Really appreciate it! Just 3 miles away? I guess these dunes lost attraction for you over time then, as it (sadly) often happens with nearby places one can visit any time (even just having the possibility is enough not to go)? I wish you a great Christmas too!

@ I will go over the holidays, thanks for the inspiration!

Thank you!

Hi and thank you very much! Psychedelic? That's interesting. Do you refer to the videos or the photographs?

That's so nice to hear! Thank you very much.

Your welcome 🙂

No instagram, I have my own website at thomasrhinow.com

Thanks for the tip!

Yes, it was a very enjoyable day. Bicycle, ferry, the sea, the harbor and the relaxed sunset mood. Can't ask for more :) Cheers

Perfect day!

Neither can I - at least not all 4 corners. But I'm satisfied with getting close. If imperfect 45s catch the eye, the image might not be worth framing :)

Thank you!

Glad you like it, happy frame building!

Great that you take the time to watch my videos! Without a macro lens, it's best to look for subjects that are slightly larger but still have an interesting out of focus area around them. You can try to compensate for the lack of focus peaking by shooting in burst mode and moving very slightly forwards or backwards while the camera is firing - however that's not really budget friendly when shooting film. Another way is to use a tripod and shoot non-moving subjects, so you have time to set focus.

@@thomasrhinow Thank you for the thoughtful reply, Thomas ! I Definitely need to get over my reluctance to carry a tripod. And that is a great point about the focus area around the subject. After watching this video, I did go on a little macro video mission. Fortunately I was able to contain myself and not make any hasty purchases! :) Although, perhaps some extension tubes for a vintage 50mm I use are in mind. :) Either way... your videos are food for the mind and soul and I will probably watch this one several times. Carry on, Thomas !

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like it!

Thank you very much Rolf, I am glad you like it!

Haha, yeah the world can be amazing with a close look and a bit of imagination :) Glad you like what you found here!

Totally agree! Too bad the place is 1000km from where I live, so a revisit won't be soon - if at all.

Well the more time it passes the more interesting a revisit would be than!

Glad you like it! I have hope I can fix my printer soon - can't wait to start the new wall with those prints.
