New From Texas

[SoulfulRecover]

Hello everyone!

Ive shot a little 4x5 in the past but it was far from anything special. I think I am quite bad at it honestly haha. Anyway, I was looking for a weekend project of some sort so I thought I would try my hand at building a 4x5 slowly over the next few months. I came across a lens for basically nothing and had some questions about it which led me to this site. I look forward to learning from everyone here :)

Large format is like anything else worth doing, it takes lots of practice to get good at it. Fortunately, it's a lot of fun while you are practicing! :)
