Photography by David Ondrik

I’ve been asked to write reviews for photo-eye books. I’m just finishing my first one on Derek Henderson’s “Mercy Mercer.” Look for it soon!

I just got back from the New Topographics show at the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson. Seeing all the great, small, black & white photos has me questioning whether I really want to get into color work. So now a comparison:

What to do, what to do…

Dawn Gardens 2010, originally uploaded by davidondrik.

I’m not super happy with the 3 rolls of film I got back from the lab. I’m not sure if it’s the images, the Portra 160VC film, or what. But I’ve uploaded 2 that I do like to my Flickr page. There’s also two digital shots that are okaish. They’re currently the first 4 images on Flickr.

I shot 3 new rolls of 120 film this past week for the Antelope Lake/Dawn Gardens series. It’s Kodak VC 160 (I think) instead of Ektar 100. I’ll see how it compares on Monday. There’s also 2 digital shots that may be passable.
