If you make any prints, please share them with us. I'd love to see some scans of your results!

Oh man, let me know if you ever need to get rid of any! I've been searching for some 8x10 Rapid for a couple of months. It's beautiful when used for lith prints.

I would love to see some more pics, I think I might put an order in.

Amazing portfolio and I agree, the PDF presentation was nice and clean.

Same here, Andrew. The composition of the windmill photo is especially good in my opinion.

Wow. Maurits, that's a great shot man, very cool.

Your comment about the image being off-centered is definitely what I needed to hear about this photo. I guess I never thought about it, and I definitely have a lot to learn about really observing the...

Thanks Rick, I agree, the top is rather distracting. I've clipped off some of the top and taken a little away from right as Ken had done in his version.

Thank you Ken for the insight and edit. I...

I love that last shot of yours h20man, it's my new wallpaper. I too would appreciate any help with composition, I've cropped it down a bit to get rid of excess shadow area, but if someone would like...

Great photos, I've just found my new wallpaper for my laptop.

I like it a lot Stephane, the composition looks smooth to me. I love the high contrast, do you mind me asking what film/dev you used?

Amazing, Spiky.

People contributed their methods in this thread as well.

rco3, do you go to the university? I live here in Gainesville too.

Ben, that's a wonderful portrait. I like the soft lighting as well as the contrast between her and the seat. I'm rather new, but I think we all appreciate that kind of contrast in a black and white...

Beautiful Rhemz! The composition draws me in, as does the motion captured. Great job!

Jehu, it was absolutely worth it!

I agree with him Richard, what a stunning depth you have captured.

Oh yeah, and HDR's...

Agree with Jeffrey, the way people use 'photoshop' as a verb can really be dismissive. It's pretty hilarious when HDR's have become so overdone and accepted, yet a landscape photo still gets...

That makes sense. I like the tape idea as well, I might make an attachable card to the filter itself, that seems like the most attractive technique at the time.

Lachlan: A windy day on the river is the reason why I started using Velcro, gravity doesn't always beat out the other forces. :)

Vinny: That's a good Idea, I see how that would be easier to slide...

Hello, I'm rather new to LF photography and film photography in general, but after struggling with seeing the edge of my grads on my slow wide angle lens, I came up with a system. I've no idea if...

Adonis, that's an extremely beautiful photograph you have there.

Haha yes, I don't seem to have trouble remembering the darkslide, but I have had an instance where I forgot to close the lens before removing the darkslide. But hey, everyone needs to get a...

Thanks Ed and Vaughn, I appreciate the speedy response. I guess I'll just add that to my things to keep in mind before taking the shot.

Do any of you have to adjust your bellows to keep from blocking a portion of light from getting to the groundglass from the lens? I bought the universal bellows upgrade with my 4x5 chamonix, and I've...

Sean, those are amazing. I love the third one, what film is that?

Larry, the Portra 160NC looks very unique, I'm about to order some VC but I think I might have to try NC as well now.

Absolutely inspiring, thanks for posting this!

Now I have to learn how to make such good sepia portraits.

Amazing photo Joel!

I think it looks great like it is, well done.


Edit: In fact, after looking at your flickr under fuji pro 160c, I think I'll buy that for portraits instead of portra.

Spiky, that last one is really great. What kind of film did you use? Portra?

Luckily I don't plan on using my camera as furniture :) I understand why people are considerate of the wood that is being used, but coming from using a piece-of-shit plastic Nikon D40x, I think Teak...

I'm sorry to awaken this thread after the problem has been resolved, but I'm new. I have everything I need but a tripod (on the way) and a lens wrench (forgot to order.) So I'm under the impression...

Thanks Shadowleaves, I've gone through those threads already and have pm'd one of the users. His and your explanations were very helpful, I think I should be fine. I'll be shooting mostly f/22 for...

Does anyone have any experience with Maxwell Screens being used on the 45n-1? I've heard they're tremendous screens even if you don't have focusing errors, but maybe they would be more accurate for...

Just got mine yesterday, what a beauty! The picture that Mortensen posted is much more accurate in color than the other photo. I'm curious about the Fresnel focusing issue, is the problem well known,...

Stunning photos, I bookmarked your site for inspiration.
