I think I have posted this one before, but it is the handiest LF image I have around right now. Several years ago.

Carbon print (Bostick and Sullivan Carbon Tissue). Taken with an 8x10 camera, Agfa X-Ray film, processed at the hopsital (unknown chemistry).

Here is one of my 5 year old Ehren, now if I could get his 3 yearl old brother Carson to sit still!

Amund: Wow !

May I ask, what kind of lens ?

[George Kara]

Nice shot Amund. Intense.

Okay, enough with the cutesy shots. I know I've posted my fair share of them. It's time to show what being a parent is really like.

My 3 year old son. Bedtime....

Amund: Wow !

May I ask, what kind of lens ?

Thanks Ken and George! It`s not LF....
Bronica Etrs with a 75mm PE lens. T-Max 100 film. Shot wide open... Those Bronica lenses are really good, especially this 75mm...

I used to have a Bronica GS-1, and the 100mm normal lens was quite sharp too. The longer lenses weren't so great though.

I would also like to think that I recognize the signature of TMX in your photo. TMX seems super-realistic to me - more so than other films - from around Zone III to VIII. Below that, the values seem to drop off. (Perhaps it's my scanner). Sometimes TMX images look so faithful to the original, you forget they are in b&w... or is it just my imagination ?

Here's a recent example, where it conveys that realistic quality.

Sheldon - LOVE THAT SHOT. Did you pinch him to get that extra little bit of frown?

[Sheldon N]

No pinching necessary on my part. He had actually just pinched himself on his Legos while putting them away for the evening. It doesn't take much when they're tired.
