What a lovely experience this was. Quite a long hike to get to this spot. Who says you can't use Monorail View Cameras in the field?

That’s beautiful, Daniel. Great tonality.

Thanks Ben!

I fail to see any difference between landscapes taken with Large Format equipment, and anything else. It's just a lot more work with the camera, and somewhat less in the darkroom.

And a lot more detail, texture and tonal separation. The work in the darkroom is just as much, and often more.

Cruising files looking for shadow images for a show at Fotorelevance in Houston. 5X7 from Shiprock.

Never been able to print this one to suit myself, but learned a new trick that helped. Also working on my file system. Went through and looked at all of the shots from every morning that I was on this ledge....proofs laid out together. Almost an exhibition's worth.
