Depending on date, I would be interested in taking part in a photography only outdoor art fair in the Bay area.

Great location! And a great time was had by all participants at Tillman's workshop! It was particularly fun when he took out his 5x12 at the end of one day. Tillman's an engaging instructor, and I...
If your travels take you to Southern California I would be very interested.

I am one of the photographers that officially signed up and will be there. Although it is my first "meeting" I can't imagine a scenario in which anyone present would be turned away.

Tri, Jim and Hugo, thank you for putting the "meet" together.
The exhibition of diverse processes and resulting prints was quite interesting, as was the display of the truly "Big Iron" (ultra...
Due to a change in plans due to the Hurricane set to hit the Eastern Seaboard, contrary to my earlier post, I will be able to attend.

I would love to attend, but am leaving on a business trip to the East Coast the morning of the event. Hopefully there will be a second annual gathering next year!

I will commit for 2 boxes.

I would purchase 5 boxes of Acros 4x5 Quickload
I've flown out of LAX numerous times with my LF camera and film, to both domestic and foreign destinations. At times I've asked for a hand check, but recently I simply send my backpack of LF camera,...
In a in the midst of construction of workspace for digital post processing. I will have a 24" desktop, with cabinets built above the desktop. My question: for the Epson 3880, how much clearance is...
Gem,
The SV45U2 is all that I could want in a camera. It is extremely stable and I use lenses from 75mm to 45mm. I also occasionally use a 6x17 back and the camera is sturdy enough that the...
Gary,
I purchased Gem Singer's Ebony SV45te years ago. I too desired to use a 450mm lens, but found that it would focus the lens, but with not much bellows draw easily available. I sold the...
Earlier this year, a group of friends and I took on a project to photograph Colonel Allensworth State Park here in California. Long story short, we ended up with a book layout of 48 pages, and chose...
I have what for me is the best of all world's in terms of camera. I will be taking it to the Eastern Sierra next week to backpack, with most of my time either at destinations in which the trailhead...
In addition to the areas identified above, I would highly recommend Guadalupe, California, which is due west of Santa Maria and just a few miles from the beach.

Prior to and since acquiring a Jobo 3010 I have been trying to come up with a solution to remove the Jobo lid after processing. Certainly the manly approach suggested by my friend Michael Gordon,...
I've shot a few church interiors in the past, and have used Fuji Provia, in large part due to its reciprocity characteristics. I recommend it for the task you have described.

Our group will be at the park on Saturday, February 27. Not only will the park be open, but most, if not all of the buildings will be open. Based on my discussions with the park rangers and docents...
I visited the Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park this past Saturday and decided that I wanted to create a collection of photos for the non-profit organization that supports the park. ...

Does your question (and poll) relate to color, black and white, and/or both?

A big welcome from Santa Clarita to the forum. This is a wonderful, helpful community that you will enjoy being a member.

Harley,
I too have the Kelty Redwing P2 backer system and find it much more comfortable than the LowePro products. From your description it sounds as though I probably carry as much (or more)...
I heartily recommend Joseph Luppino of www.pixelnation.us. Although I reside in the Los Angeles area I send my scan work to Joseph, who is located in Pennsylvania. Joseph also uses the Aztec...
Lately I have noticed the bellows of my camera blocking a portion of the top of some of my images, which results in a large shadow being cast on the images. It most often occurs when I use a 150mm...
Yes, I own an Ebony and would be happy to show it to you. Please see the private message I sent to you.

Brian,
I returned from shooting at the Palouse a week ago today. Neither the canola nor the mustard fields had yet fully blossomed. It is my understanding that the mustard was a few days from...
Steve,
Fortunately through trial and error I have figured out the fix. Thanks for the heads-up!
Rick Russell
I love my SV45U2! I previously owned a SV45TE, but wanted the longer bellows and the assymetrical tilts. The trade-off was the additional weight.
I have grown very accustomed to the...
I'm certainly no expert in the matter, and don't have a dog in this fight, but I understand that the Aztec Premier drum scanner, used by Mr. Eiger and the company I use for my scans, Pixelnation, is...
Great show! My wife and I truly appreciated the exhibit last night. I took the opportunity to introduce myself to QT and thank him not only for this wonderful forum, but also to let him know that I...
I will be in Europe on business in late September and intend to visit Bruges and Gent in Belgium, and Luxembourg City. I have Friday night through Monday night available to photograph. Other than...
I send my both slide and negative scanning to Joseph Luppino of Pixelnation (610) 223-0715 or www.pixelnation.us. He's a real artist with his scanner, and the personalized service from Joseph is...
Try the Virginia Creek Settlement. It offers motel, cabin and campground, and is located about one mile north of the turn-off from Highway 395 to Bodie. I will be staying there next month while...
This thread is quite eye-opening.
Until moments ago, I never considered myself a useless photographer, never contemplated that I outsourced my creativity. Yes, I am someone who sends out...
On balance I thought Foto 3 was good, not great. My frame of reference in part is the fact that I attended the 2006 conference in Rockford, Ill.
It appeared the attendance over the weekend was...
