Show off your Large Format camera!

Yes. I thought it would give a magical kind of feel as out of focus leaves etc, in a big print you'll also notice that the wheat fields in between will also be out of focus, I planned that the wall and the house are the only two planes in focus.

Pics were great, equipment was enviable (by me) choice of music was great too!

After lugging my Marion tailboard around for a while I happened upon this Tany (Japanese) which is the same build as the Vageeswari, just a logo change I think. 10X12 rat eaten wood replaced and bellows by custom bellows U.K.

My first LF setup - Linhof Kardan Color 45 S with 210mm G-Claron. You may notice the improvised lensboard - a bit crude but will have to do until I get a proper one.

Whole Plate Chamonix, dodgy 14 inch commercial ektar, but some how commercial ektars seem to have magic no matter how dodgy they are.

Nice camera!

Until you have to carry it, then its not so nice. But for close, it always gets the run. I tend to work with 5x7 and wholeplate together until the 5x7 takes us down the trail. Notice the countdown frozens bag for holders and the foursquare carry all for glass.

The countdown bag was the first thing I spotted on your picture! I understand your problem. I could neither find a satisfactory solution to carry all my LF gears (linhof 5x7) but this will change as I just bought a carrier frame I will adapt for LF photography. If you are looking for a suitable solution to carry your film holders, I would suggest to have a look at Briscoes Thermos bags. I bought one of those bag on sales last year,and they are perfect for carrying 5x7 film holders. A 6x cans size should do 8x 5x7 film holders! Might be a bit too small for whole glass plates!
