I started off as a fine arts photographer, and one of the projects that I concentrated on was urban landscapes at night, shot with a 4×5 camera on film. It was grueling work, but very rewarding. As I got busy with weddings and portraits I stopped working on that project for a long time, but last Saturday I decided to push myself again. The night was beautifully foggy and I couldn’t resist. I left my apartment at 10pm with my 4×5 and came home at 6am. In those 8 hours I produced 8 images, and these are the results. Most were shot in Everett and a few in Somerville.
Disclaimer: these were scanned at home on a crappy scanner and not worked on much. As such they are not complete. I will be printing these myself in a darkroom, at which point the final version of the images will reveal themselves to me.








These are excellent man. Very dreamy. Not that I’m much of a photographer, but these are totally shots I’m always trying to take.
Have you been to the salt pile and meridian street bridge in chelsea? you could get a lot of these – especially when the large tankers are loading or unloading salt on that pile.
