    Is there supposed to be an attachment here? As I've toyed with getting an 11x14 camera, I'm so looking forward to seeing what folks are doing with this format.

    Sometimes having an underexposed 11x14 negative can't be allowed to stand in the way of a good (YMMD) print.

    Silver gelatin print -- some reflections off the print, unfortunately

    Here is another I just posted elsewhere in the 11x14 lens thread.

    Two Redwoods, Cal-Barrel Road, 2001
    Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park

    Taken with a borrowed homemade 11x14 (under 7 pounds) and a 355mm G-Claron.

    My triplet boys were 4.5 years old and around this age I would take them to the redwoods often, with the hope of getting at least one exposure in. I would find a image (in this case along a lonely lovely dirt road and zero traffic) where I could break out the camera, get lunch out for the three boys, and while they were occupied eating, I'd set up the camera and get the photo taken before the boys finished lunch and started to run between the legs of the tripod, or wander off and fall in a creek, or something.

    It was great when they got a little older, became my 'figures in the landscape' and would hold still up to two minutes for photographs in the redwoods, then go exploring while I made more images. I kept it to one image a trip with the boys in the landscape to keep them excited to do it for me every time we went out.

    There was wonderful light present for this image -- slightly diffuse but still direct light coming thru the trees. My Pentax meter read from 5 to 10, exposed at 7 . I used f/64 for 30 seconds on FP4+ rated at 100 (no extra time for reciprocity failure). Developed in Rollo Pyro.
