Wonderful images, yes thanks for posting.
Tioga Pass is scheduled to open today, May 11, 2013. I'm headed for Tuolumne tomorrow.
Voigtlander apo lanthar 150mm - $300
I stumbled upon this and thought it may be of interest.

I learned to use a compass as a child and used it with the topo maps when I worked as a Ranger in Yellowstone. I would take a GPS if I had one but would never go without a map and compass. I have...
I live in Kings Beach, CA on Lake Tahoe and we are getting more snow; several feet are predicted for this series of storms. In the Tahoe basin we are expected to be at 170% of normal snow pack for...
I upgraded to Aperture 3 which is an improvement over earlier versions which had difficulty handling large files. I have no problem working on files 100mb+. But if I were you, I would try it for 30...
'Fine art' and another vote for bokeh.

A few years ago Joel was a HP sponsored lecturer at Macworld. He talked primarily about his work at the WTC and the post 9/11 clean-up where he documented it with his 8x10. It was a very good...
Watch where you step as a local fell into an abandoned mine shaft in Nevada last week. They could not get to him safely and the shaft was filled and the man entombed in the mine with the consent of...
I's suggest a Horseman VHR. It will accept the horseman and graflex rollfilm backs; I have the 6x6 , 6x7, and 6x9. It can be focused on the GG with a loupe or with a reflex viewer and can be used...
I like and use both viewers. The binocular viewer allows you to set the camera higher as you look straight thru the camera and it folds smaller and is easier to carry when hiking. For most...
I purchased a bino viewer and the foldable reflex viewer for my Horseman FA from KEH. They are scarce.
Thanks Ted for the clarification as I did not read the question closely enough. I did not know such a thing existed. How much does this IIRC cost?

I have one that I purchased from on ebay from a Hong Kong dealer for use on my FA. However, I would be careful when using it with a very heavy lens. I currently have a 240mm Docter lens mounted on...
I was in Yosemite yesterday. Beautiful weather with no clouds and not the best conditions for photos. There were very few visitors which was nice but the valley had very little snow left on the...
One vote for the 90mm --I use my 90 f8 nikkor often and have a 65 nikkor when I occasionally want to go wider.
I recently purchased an FA since the lensboard is the same as my VHR. I too intended to use a 6x12 chinese rollfilm back but find that I am prefering to shoot 4x5 and crop later. I use a 65mm...
I had a 135 repro-claron for macro work but this is a superior lens. Only my second new lens. I purchased a 240 Docter lens 6 months ago, the rest are used.
I found some older threads on this question but wanted more current thoughts. I have a horseman 45FA with 65 nikkor, 90 f8 nikkor, 150 apo lanthar, 180 A Fuji, and 240 Docter. I am considering a...
Ted,
Thanks for the tip. My lens arrived yesterday and I plan on using it this week. I was using a 135mm repro-claron and a fuji 180 A .

I recently purchased a Shen Hao 6x12 back(6x9 6x6 adapter). Does anyone have suggestions on using this back? It has the 2 red windows to see the film numbers. Unfortunately, I used a flashlight to...
