Wow, can you believe 2010 is in two months?! It seems so crazy to me! My buddy Andrew co-owner of Needles + Pen's just published his yearly Half-Frame Calendar chocked full of, you guessed it, half-frame photographs. Are you too shy to ask what a half-frame camera is? Oh look at you, you're so cute! Well don't fret, Andrew does a great job of explaining it:
"A half-frame camera is a semi-obsolete device (made mostly in the 1960s& 1970s) that advances each shot only half of the distance that anormal format camera would. The result allows for two shots per frameinstead of one and presto-change-o! - a 36 exposure roll offilm instantly becomes 72 exposure roll. The true beauty of half-framephotography lies in the phenomenon of the ‘happy accident,’ theserendipitous effect of two random images being placed next to oneanother on a single print."
I've seen lots of Andrew's photographs in person and they're truly serene and lovely. You can get yourself, or your bff (cause everybody loves a calender) a copy of Andrew's calendar here.
