Campus Snapshots: Nanyang Technological University"Photography allows me to capture perfect moments in a sequence of events called life. There are no perfect pictures, only perfect moments."--Nandakumar Narasimhan  Credit: Nandakumar Narasimhan Name: Nandakumar Narasimhan, 25Position: Darkroom chairpersonEquipment: Nikon FM2 with 50mm F1.4 lens Genres of interest: Traditional black & white About the pictures: The pictures were shot on Fujifilm Neopan 1600 and Kodak Tri X 400 (pushed to 800 during developing). Shutter speeds ranged from 1/8 to 1/30 second and aperture settings were from F2.8 to F5.6. All the photos were metered off the highlights of the subject's skin and overexposed by one stop to retain details in shadow regions. These images were taken during the last few performances of this touring opera group. They were very friendly and hospitable, allowing me to access their backstage preparations. A simple story follows, and I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. His shots:

Hi,
The darkroom Chairperson is the guy who looks after the darkroom and conducts workshops for traditional black and white techniques. Like the red colour room you see in the movies..
Cheers,
Nandakumar

Hello darkroom Chairperson,
