...
The next day I took my new camera and a peanut butter sandwich into the woods and fell in love! The thing that struck me the most was that I could really see what I was photographing. Instead of peeking at the image with one eye through a little hole, I was looking at it with both eyes and the difference was a quantum leap. WOW! I knew in a minute that I could not go back to peeking through that little hole. It was a while before I found a 4x5 enlarger that I could afford, but when I did, I was hooked for good. Once I printed from a large negative it was all over for the 35mm.
... But the people looking for actual Art, know the difference and appreciate the quality of a selenium toned silver print from a LF negative. That is my market, but I don’t do what I do for them, I do it for ME.
