Re: Large Format Landscapes
The second one is very good. So is the third! You hit the lighting just right.

No way, this is color negative film of some kind I'm guessing, or E100G maybe but it has that color negative look.

I usually do not like color but these I have no choice but like them very much.

Outstanding images! Thanks for sharing.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
Nice series skier4life! The second one has a wonderful flow from foreground to background.

I'm impressed you've matched the tones very well.
Also how did you expose? As in how did you choose the exposure, did you spot meter or what? Thanks, excellent.
Thanks! For the last one I had to use Ektar because there was too much dynamic range for Fuji Velvia 50. Either the shadows would've been completely black, or the water and the back wall would've been blown out. Ektar handled it just fine. As for metering, for the Velvia shots, I spot metered the brightest part of the white water and placed that value at +2. All the shadows were brighter than -2 so I knew I was good to go. For the Ektar shot, I placed the darkest part of the scene (the columns of rock to the left and right of the glow) at -2. This put the water at +3 and the glow at +2.5ish, which color negative easily handles.

It was shot in 1990 with the original Fujichrome 50, in the pre-Velvia days. I liked Fuji 50 RFP better than Velvia. It was sure nice to use.

I stand corrected.
Interesting I didn't even know they made a fujichrome 50, only the 64 version.
