a closer look

Today I finally got to try out the coupler I got through the NMSL to attach the Canon 5D to Tanya Dahm's Zeiss microscope. Erik and I shot photos and occassional videa for over two hours. Often we had to expose for 20 or 30 seconds (nicer effects with long exposures). Everything looks so good this way. My concentration is on the grain of the film images, in particular of film images of wheat grain. I will make these images into new videos which I will convert back to film.

that all sounds amazing, and yet a description that only scratches the surface of what you are really doing i imagine.
looking forward to hearing more and eventually seeing.
let me know if you ever want to chat about it. i like it so far.
