How many you out there have ever shot with slide film? I know when I was just starting out at 13 I never ran a roll of slide film through my camera.
One I had no idea what I would need slides for and two I was afraid that "it didn't have as much give" as film did.
Of course over time and as I became more educated about slides I understood their importance. The colors were better than film, the slides held up better over time and the overall quality was just superior. I also found out that most pro sports photographers were only shooting chrome.
Slides were not something that you would generally turn into prints. That meant they lived as they were and normally did not get cropped. What you saw is what you got and you really lived with it.
When I cam across the photo book called Slide Show from Sports Illustrated I was truly amazed at the moments captured. What I love about this book is you get to see the original slide and mount. You can read all of the information that editors over the years have written. You have your X numbers, dates, dots and so much more. All of these things have their own special meaning and that is explained in the book.
I was fascinated to find out that so many of the images were cropped and cropped heavily. In sports photography that seems to be something that is the norm. There is nothing wrong with it, let me repeat just because I don't personally crop my work doesn't mean there is anything wrong with cropping. If the image is still good enough for the cover of Sports Illustrated it's still good enough for me.
I love the details and the stories that are told with the slides. This is one of my favorite books in my collection. Not only do I love sports but when you combine sports and photography you can't go wrong.
