    Do not worry, you are doing great. I remember my report regarding steel pipes where I wanted to "steal pipes" and few times "sheet" and "shit" got me in to some kind of trouble. In case you will have any question that may appear too sexy you can always PM me in Polish.
    Karkonosze is a nice place to shoot landscape. I used to ski in Szklarska Poreba.

    Aww, I've been speaking it my whole life and I'm still having problems with the English language, especially when speaking to my wife about my large format habit. Welcome, Michal!

    I know that feeling as well. When I made my first enlargement from LF I undersigned the picture: For my beloved wife...

    Have you considered using a roll film back while you are practising the cameras movements and generally getting used to it. L.F. is a big step from 35mm of M.F.
    best wishes,
    Pete.

    Hi Pete,

    I have 6x9 horeseman back and I'm using it a lot, it is much cheaper to waist 120 film than 4x5.
    I also practised with my friend痴 Technika before I bought my own camera. My friend is teacher in one of the best photography schools in Poland, he teach basics of LF Photography and Introduction to Zone System, you can see his photographs in the net, search for: Michal Jelinski. He is always trying to convince me to B&W, but in this field I知 very difficult student.

    I hope you do not waste any film, including 120.
    Nice link. If you know any polish LF galleries or LF photographers sites based in Poland please provide. I haven't found anything specific for LF, although there are some very good www galleries for smaller formats.
