15mm Heliar gallery

Michael, Jeff is correct, you have to publish your photo somewhere

else on the web first, than copy-and-paste the html from a WORKING :)

post, edited with the URL address of your published photo.

 

<p>

 

There's lots of places to publish photos on the web for free. Try

Geocities or Photo.Net. Most ISP's provide free web publishing space

on their server as part of your Internet package.

 

<p>

 

As for my last two posts - how embarrassing! I first pasted the text

into a "Test" Lusenet forum, and it worked perfectly! I don't know

what went wrong. Maybe there's an open tag in a previous message, but

I couldn't spot it. I emailed Tony to please delete those two

messages, 'cause it sure looks ugly...<p>

<i>Not to worry; all fixed now. Thanks for posting your image! - Tony</i>

Thanks, Joe. I haven't received the email yet because I'm out of

town at the moment and not receiving mail at my current location (my

parent's place in Fairbanks). I'll be home tomorrow to check it.

<p>

I wish it were easier for folks to post photos. It's a bit

cumbersome no matter what tricks and shortcuts one learns. Jeff and

Joe are certainly correct... you have to have your image published

some place already. In other words, you have to be able to type in

is address and filename into the "Go to" or "Address" field at the

top of your browser. Once on the net, it is "relatively" simple to

post the image on a greenspun.com forum such as this one. The way

you do it is with a bit of html.

<p>

The simplist way is with the img tag, but I would do what Jeff

mentioned and just "View->Source" of a post that contains an image

and just copy that. Once copied, change the address and filename to

reflect your target image. I like to center my image posts with the

center tag. Hope all that helps. It would sure be nice if it were

easier, I know. Let me know if you have difficulties or further

questions.

<P>Well, that's just weird. I don't know who has the domain

<P>I've been using the Heliar for nearly a year now and I love it,

it's a great lens. I like it much more than the Zeiss Hologon I had

before. The Hologon is techniclaly better corrected and with its

graduated ND filter returns a more accurate negative, but that makes

it an f/16 lens which is a pain to work with. The extremely short

lens mount makes it very hard to take pictures with and not get your

fingers in the image. The Heliar is much friendlier, faster, and just

a lot of fun to work with.</P>

 

<P>Here are some links to images I've made with the Heliar that I

enjoy (the first is a larger version of the image I've attached

here):</P>

<P>It really is a fun lens to work with and very sharp. I am going to

do a lot more with it on this summer's trip to the Isle of Man.</P>

Here's one I wasn't expecting. I call it 1,000 portraits. Note that

the folks in the foregroung had no idea they were in the picture, and

therefore didn't start looking self conscious. The original negative

shows the expression on most of the people here, almost to the back

row.

I happened to be looking through some contact sheets from a few

months ago and found this one I'd never bothered with. Sometimes

that happens...<p>
