Thanks for the comments-for some reason I struggle with fog and this is one of the few fog shots I've taken I could live with :)

Ahem, old gals too :)
Just made my room reservation- The hotel said there were only a few rooms left in the group block rate, so better hurry.
I'll be driving down Friday-see you then!

I've had similar problems this past year (some of which I eventually linked to my developer, but thats another story) and have tried several different development methods trying to solve it. I ended...
Don't forget Badger Graphic-$35.99
I'll admit I was surprised by reports it doesn't help much. I bought a fresnel for my Shen hao from Badger, and it works great. I don't really need a dark cloth unless the sun is shining directly on...
I believe it is meant to be used at 1+4 for film and 1+9 for paper. I fix film in it for at least 5 minutes

Hi Evan,
Are these your 11x14 infrared shots?
Manfrotto has tripods that allow for horizontal positioning of the center column-I have used this a few times with the 4x5 to shoot straight up or down, but it was a little tippy-have something to...
Are you talking about the Orton effect? That uses one image out of focus and one in focus to create the aura type effect I think you are talking about. It was very popular a few years back on some...
Some of the rental companies say you can't take it off paved roads-best to check with the individual company.

Adobe has been offering that $299 upgrade to anyone registering Elements for several years. Once they have your e-mail address they will periodically e-mail that offer to you. (I've been getting...
The group's pretty informal-no pre-registration required. Just come to the conference room(look for a bunch of people milling around carrying prints:D ) at the hotel on the appointed day and enjoy. ...
Yes, Canadians are welcome. I believe there is even a forum member from Italy:D so you don't really have to be in the Midwest

Welcome from Jackson WI. And don't let Mike fool you, my shoelaces have matched ever since I switched to shoes that don't have any.:)

Welcome from Jackson, WI
I'll second Evan's recommendation of the Midwest Large Format Asylum-a great group of people to hang out with.

I tend to drop rather than forget.
Dropped the tripod down a small ravine(fortunately easily recovered)
Dropped the loupe which bounced off the edge of the bluff I was standing on(I heard it...
That's funny because driving the interstates in Wisconsin, I very rarely pass a car with Illinois plates-it's always the other way around in that they fly by me about 10-20 mph faster, yet they...
Yes, I know. I was responding to the post before mine inquiring about the 10 sheet box of sheet film being listed as discontinued on B&H.
I remember in an earlier thread there was information that Velvia 50 (and some other films) was being changed from 10 sheet boxes to 20 sheet boxes. Hopefully that is what is going on rather than the...
That last stretch of road is insane, and I wasn't even sure I was still on the road in some spots where it's all rock, but while on the rim I met someone who had driven out in a compact car that...
We're planning on meeting for breakfast at 8:00 at the Flying J truck stop just south of 80/94 at the Grant Street Exit. After breakfast we'll probably head to the church (located at 566 Washington...

If you're familiar with the Midwest Large Format Asylum, there is actually an outing scheduled to Gary, Indiana this Saturday, December 13 -the plan so far is to photograph the abandoned City...
From internet sources(which means who knows if it's correct or not)
"It is said that when the Emperor Constantine had his great vision that caused him to convert to Christianity, he saw the Greek...
Last time I flew, I shipped my Quickloads ahead to my destination and picked it up there(I could never have fit them in my carryon along with the camera equipment so it really was the only option if...
Adorama appears to have the new Velvia 50 in stock in Quickloads-it looks a little pricey. I wonder if they're getting it through some back door source and hiking the price or if it's really going to...
I use USPS Priority to ship film processing orders, haven't had a problem yet(knock on wood)

Mike Crivello's in Brookfield has 4x5 B&W, not sure about their current stock of 4x5color film(though they have carried it in the past). I've found their film prices to be on the high side so I get...
I have the photobackpacker system in a Kelty Redwing women's pack and I found the camera can be taken out fairly easily when there is nothing in the big outside pocket on the flap. Since that is...
I've found that plastic pencil boxes(.49 at Walmart during the back to school sales) hold 4 holders perfectly. I put them all in a cooler in my trunk when I head out to shoot, and when I stop to...
2 hours will get you to the Baraboo/Wisconsin Dells area. There are some very nice state parks there (Devil's Lake, Mirror Lake, Rocky Arbor) and a lot of small State Natural Areas that are very nice...
I bought the Photobackpacker cases after seeing them at the View Camera Conference. I already had the Kelty backpack with the idea of using it for my 4x5 gear-I was still working on different options...
The pdf on the View Camera website looks exactly like the ad, but if you look closely, you will see that it does include the days for the seminars in the listing of seminars offered. (I had to look...
I check here everytime I'm on the computer, which is frequently-but being new to large format I tend to lurk and learn rather than post
