Thanks, in a way this whole series is about finding the last traces of light in these old churches, once filled with light and prayer, now left as a monuments, often bereft of life, witnesses to passing crowds with no interest in stability...

Gorgeous, mysterious and moody; bravo, Andrej!

Thank you, Ari.

Andrej that is really stunning. Your description of the series describes this print very well. I really like the glow of the window.

Thanks, Scott!
As for description, I don't think this was really my intention in the first place. I'd rather say I see (and print) them in this way as a result of a meditation (or whatever one would call it) when looking at length at these images...

I am not a big fan of the format but your last images are just incredible Andrej.

Thank you, Ramiro. I still don't know much about the 4x10 format, with these images I am still only feeling my way round it, so to speak, but I have to say that I'm beginning to like it (but oddly enough, all the four by tens that I am content with are vertical...

)

This is the Tower Bridge in Sacramento.

Calumet 4x5 with a Schneider Symmar 150mm lens. Ilford HP5, shot at 200. I was trying to work on holding the range in tone. The shadows under the bridge were on Zone II, and the towers came out at Zone IX and a half. So I had it pulled one stop. I think it should have been pulled more. The sun was really glaring off that bridge, which is painted "gold" (yellow). This was with an orange filter.

I bought the lens used, and it had fungus haze. I had it cleaned by Schneider, and this is from the first set of exposures after cleaning. It seems to work better than it did, but maybe not quite as well as the one I used to have a long time ago, which was from the same year -- 1970.
