    Yup, that was just totally unnecessarily harsh, and potentially way off the mark. Hard to believe that people post stuff like that without knowing the recipient.

    Re: post your urban landscapes

    Funny, I couldn't see 13 towers for the longest time, but when I finally found the missing ones, I ended up with 17! :) Neat shot somehow. Not very traditional.

    Great perspective. I get the distinct impression that the trees are only a few inches tall.

    Funny shots! It would be quite a sight to see a LF camera in the bathroom like this. So, how did you get the rain into your bathroom?

    Great shot, Charles. Since you mentioned the composition, have you tried cropping it slightly at the top and left, maybe a tiny bit at the bottom?

    The Scottish Highlands for me. Perhaps also Hawaii and Japan. Scotland should be doable, as I live in Germany. I doubt I will get to either Hawaii or Japan in the next 5-7 years.
  34. Re: "Just like being there" effect on Panoramic prints

    Vertical panoramas are also really special, but very difficult to pull off. I have seen just a few successful ones, but they were really different.

  35. Re: "Just like being there" effect on Panoramic prints

    A 28mm on 135 has a horizontal angle of view of 65 degrees. A 90mm on 4x5 has about 70 degrees, I believe, so a touch more.
  36. Re: "Just like being there" effect on Panoramic prints

    My feeling is that 6x12 is not terribly panoramic, but you could experiment a bit with cropping 4x5s to get the feel for that yourself. Try going out with your 90 and compose only for the 2:1 strip...
