Here's two photos I did the day after Christmas with two different lenses. 4x5 tmy2 in pmk, speed graphic.
The first is a trioplan 210 at 5.6-8ish. crisp separation between sharp foreground and soft background.
Second is the same scene with the Reinhold wollaston meniscus 190 at f8. Cropped a little because of the shorter focal length. A yummy fuzziness and different sort of DOF.
Me, no preference for either image, just kinda fun to have both.
Vaughn, I thought you swore off silver gelatin printing? Good to see I was wrong.Originally Posted by Vaughn

"WOW! Now thats a big camera. By the way, how many megapixels is that thing?"

Not sure which one i like best!! i have a meniscus too, they are cool to play with, hell I'll just take both.

No, guilty as charged. That is an older print. Printed on Ilford Gallerie, probably grade 3 and developed in Dektol 1:3.
I do admit it would be fun to dive back into silver gelatin printing, but little precious time for printing in carbon and in platinum as it is! I took my three 14 year old boys into the darkroom this past week and had them printing a few of my old MF negatives. Fun stuff!
I did get the 8x10 out today and I photographed some redwoods (with a few alders, maples, Douglas firs, hemlocks and assorted berries sneaking into the scene!). The last image was an hour exposure (f64, 125 ASA)...it is getting dark early!
