I think Jonathan summed it up pretty well. Really a lot for the eye to see, yet so simple. It's incredible.

Dean,

That's fantastic! What film is it taken with?

Here's my Graflex Graphic View I in superb condition. I just got a field camera, but I think I'm going to miss lugging this thing around for some reason.

Huh, I didn't know farmers could retire. ;) Great portrait.

I've also really been enjoying your X-ray stuff, Sergei! Fantastic control of lighting.

Nice, Richard! Is this with the Portra 160VC I sold to you? A colorize button would take all the fun out of it!

Vaughn, that sounds like a great plan! I'm actually thinking of leaving the 4x5 at home and delving into 5x7 for the first time. I'll bring the AE-1 for snapshots.

Kirk, great thoughts. I've...

Thank you all for the info. I'm actually going a completely different direction; I found non-stop tickets to Iceland for a bargain ($582!), so will be going there for two weeks to drive Route 1 the...

This news warms my heart, even after I just stocked up on a good bunch of it.

Hmm, lots of great ideas! Scott, how long are the mule rides? Does one have time to set up for photos? I'm assuming they're guided, right?

Thanks guys.

Nice, Dave!

Thanks for the replies, all. I shall look into the recommendations. I forgot to mention that I would sort of like to stick to one place, perhaps not even rent a car.

sun of sand, I'm located...

I know this is a very general request, but I'm interested in all your thoughts on a good location to shoot landscapes. I just found out that my boss will be out of town the whole last week of May,...

Thanks for posting this. Very interesting!

Like Roger, the ship date is the determining factor for me. That's my finals week. I'd gladly be in if we could ship a couple weeks after that.

Thanks,

Robert

The depth of this photo is amazing. Beautiful.

This is a fascinating post, and I believe I want to try it. Does anybody have a good recommendation for a step-wedge? I'm not sure exactly which one I should buy. A link would be very helpful!

...

I would recommend the iPod Touch just for its internet capabilities alone. I have an iPhone now, which is basically the same, except it has a better camera, processor, and of course phone...

Thanks for all the replies, everyone! I look forward to shooting some more with this lens soon.

Thank you all for the informative replies; they're very encouraging. I shall look into fashioning a lenshood for it, as I've just been using my hand. Also, the shutter appears to be quite accurate...

Thanks for the reply. I guess I was figuring that a modern lens would handle colours better, or something. Thanks for the info. I shall continue shooting it, and hopefully get some developed soon!

Hello folks,

I have a Graflex Optar 135mm f/4.7, in Graphex shutter. I've used this lens with success on B&W films, but am wondering how it will perform with Velvia 50? I've already shot a...

Nikolay,

Very nice shots. What lens did you take those with?

Rick,

That's interesting! My brother interned with DOT, and he and a friend both work for DEC now that they're graduated. I'm studying civil engineering at UAA, with 2 years left to go.

...

Rick,

What brought you to Anchorage? We had some good northern lights and clear skies about 2 nights ago (I live straight across the inlet from Eagle River). Should have come this week!

...

Great photographs, everyone. I took a few shots of an obscure little lighthouse in Japan last fall with Velvia 4x5. This thread makes me anxious to develop them!

tgtaylor,

If I were anywhere near there I would JUMP at the chance to go. I'm always been astounded by Adams work in Yosemite, and would love to try my hand at some of its sights. Alas, I hail...

That's odd. It works fine with my iPhone 4S with 5.0.1. Have you tried clearing the cookies and cache under Setting>Safari?

Thanks! I forgot to add, any constructive comments are welcome!

My first large format portraits. Any useful comments/tips are appreciated! =)

Thanks for the tips, all!

My first post here. I'm just getting into 4x5, and this is one of my first landscapes. Any useful criticism/advice would be appreciated. =)
