Union Station #2<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

Another shot of Union Station in Los Angeles. This is a beautiful place fallen on hard times. It\u2019s still busy, but people in L.A. don\u2019t use transit service like they do in New York, and trains just aren\u2019t part of the mix in California. Still I\u2019ve take trains out of here a couple of times, and it\u2019s always interesting. It\u2019s also a fabulous place to shoot, but don\u2019t take my word for it-look for Union Station on television. It\u2019s used for a lot of shoots. Consequently the management is difficult about using a camera, and won\u2019t let use a tripod at all. I really like the way the super wide effect changes this building, and I also like the way the people appear in the shot. I particularly like the child on the left side of the frame.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Super-wide<\/a>

Super-wide Camera<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n

This shot was made with the super-wide camera I build. I used the same one for shots at El Matador and other places. I\u2019ve included a scan of the original negative so you can see the way the lens cuts the corners off on a 6X6cm piece of film. This was always an interesting camera to use. It wasn\u2019t possible to really predict hos the camera would see, or even if the negative would be sharp. So it was always exciting to see the film. You can check out an article I did on making cameras at this link<\/a>. I hope you\u2019ll check it out.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
