A very nice composition of Buachaille Etive Mor (The Great Shepherd) with a different foreground (I'm assuming that's a pool in the peat moor) from the usual River Coupall.

Capel Curig is the 6th wettest place in UK according to the Met Office. First place held by Dalness, Glen Etive, Highland region, Scotland (average annual rainfall of 130.16 inches).

I'm using Nikon Scan with a Coolscan 8000 and have never suffered from banding since always using 'fine scan'

I would ask the webmaster to give me the link to the official announcement, I wouldn't expect a webmaster to be knowledgable on the status of Fujifilm products and wouldn't accept his reply to you as...

Fuji Japan have consistently stated that Velvia 50, 100 and 100F will continue to be available in 4x5 sheet film, only the quickload versions being discontinued.

See the announcement (translated...

This is where I recently purchased a large supply of Velvia 50 from - http://www.macodirect.de/fuji-velvia-50br102-127cm-4x520-sheets-p-1716.html

Price has increased by €20 since I ordered from...

Ok, I'll get back to you on that.

Sorry, that is my fault for using the term emulsion which I concede can apply equally to film or paper, Salgado specifically said 'modern films' and my report of his statement was not precise enough.

Unfortunately the interviewer was more interested in the emotional impact of his photographs than technique and materials employed, and failed to ask Sebastiao to expand on this statement regarding...

Please listen to the interview ... he is NOT talking about paper.

At no point in the interview did Salgado mention photographic papers being the reason for leaving film to switch to digital.

Salgado was interviewed on BBC radio recently where he described the main reason for abandoning film was due to the declining levels of silver in modern emulsions and he just couldn't achieve the...

I would have preferred the Nikkor-M 300/f9 as it's much smaller and lighter for backpacking but I didn't have the bellows extension (M 293.8mm vs T 261mm), and therefore had to opt for the Nikkor-T...

I don't know if it's a characteristic of the blogger site but everytime I click on an image to view a larger version and then hit back it reverts to the homepage and not the gallery I've navigated...

"very small apertures." ... perhaps I should have said 'relatively' - I'm talking about f/16~22.5 (as opposed to f/4.5) where there is no discernible loss of quality (I am well aware of being...

I have a Schneider Super Symmar 80XL which was manufactured in 2002. It has slowly been developing haze on one or more of the internal elements over the last few years, but does not seem to have...

The last time I looked (a couple of days ago) the petition had reached something over 1700 signatures. Will Fuji take any notice ? ......

Yes, the one time I managed this the resultant transparency looked as though it had been shot through a red filter of factor something in the region of 6+ stops.

+1. The landscape just exudes that early morning post-rainstorm lushness. Well worth a the 03:30 start and rain sodden trek!

The LPOTY winner was IMHO an unnatural looking badly-executed example...

I have not seen the discontinuation of Velvia 50 announcement on any official Fujifilm website outside of the UK, it is certainly not on the Aus site (or US, or any other European Fuji site). Seems a...

Great shot - reminds me of the Monty Python sketch "... we lived in't cardboard box in't middle of t'street ..."

Rob

Insane indeed, given that 85% of blogs on the interweb are never read by a single person other than the author.

I'm not suggesting for one moment that your blog will not firmly be in the other...

B&H had run dry on Velvia a couple of weeks ago (even though their website indicated it was in stock) so I was only able to get FP4 & Acros to bring back to the UK. Absolutely no problems with...

Great composition. I've only seen this bridge before on an episode of Wallander as some Johnny ciminal attempts to escape the long arm of the Swedish law.

Rob

I use colour film currently more than I use B&W (only just getting back into monochrome after a 30 year gap). The cost of buying, processing and get a good professional scan of 4x5 film makes me...

maps.google.fr finds Besançon just fine, not far from Dijon. And putting 'Besançon, France' into 'maps.google.co.uk' comes up with the location, no problem.

Rob

It should have been something like "Make me one with everything but leave out the Chinese mushrooms" ...

Indeed, but as yet I've not met another LF photographer whilst I'm there ...

Sounds approximately the same ratio as Antelope canyon which also seems to yield rich reds from the reflected light in the photos I've seen, e.g Jack Dykinga, Joe Cornish etc. However at 1000ft the...

Wow the colour of that rock is unreal - great capture !

Rob

+1. And thank heavens you found it - it's a cracking shot ! I'd guess it wouldn't be bad in colour either.

I think the horizontal works well too but I find the dark background on the right-hand...

Don't you go back to the previous state and use the History Brush just to paint in the filtered result where required ?

Rob

Indeed, so much wonderful architecture that I never got the time to visit Peterhof, Tsarskoe Selo, Gatchina or any of the other great Palaces outside the city.

And soon you will have the White...
