Beautiful light. Beautifully seen.

Thanks Tim. In my hurry to get the power washer's hands I totally blew the exposure; when you hold the negative up to the light, the left side looks virtually clear. Anyway though, I salvaged it the best I could. I'm no street photographer, but I do love those little moments of serendipity. Thanks again!

I really like the 6x12 format and I know it's only a matter of time before I get into 4x10 BTW, not sure if I loaded the back wrong or if this is normal Horseman behavior because the image was composed as shown but the film lettering is backwards.

Nice composition. Uncommon to see flowers with the panoramic back but I like it.

Now my 6x17 back does that, with the upside-down film markings, but my 612 Horseman doesn't. Your image also looks reversed L-R though? Did you you have the camera upside-down, like with a tripod that you can mount the column upside-down to get lower to the ground?

Pali,

With my Sinar I can install the back with the slider towards the left or right, with the roll film knob or advance lever up or down. If the lever is down, the film is exposed upside down as yours,

Cheers,

Thank you Bryan! This is my first time with panoramic backs and so far, I really like how it makes you look at the scenes. This came from a test roll that I should to make sure the back was good so I rushed through the roll and even made some portraits that look really interesting.

The image (minus the film border) is exactly the way the flowers were if seen directly w/o camera. The camera was mounted the right side up and I think Renato's response nails the mistake I made by mounting the back with the advance lever down.

Thank you Renato - you are exactly correct. I noticed the lever on the bottom side and found it to be odd but the back still felt natural so I didn't think much of it. Now I know how to fix this for the next roll. Thanks again!

Regards,

Pali
