Great atmospheric feel on that photo, Bryan!

Amazing image, Bryan.Originally Posted by Corran
Got around to printing this image from a couple weeks ago, and also toned it in thiourea. Here's a cell phone pic of it - printed on Ilford MGIV Glossy to 11x14 size, matted to 16x20:
This is dope! Love it. I love wide angles and I cannot lie, all those other lenses can't deny.Got around to printing this image from a couple weeks ago, and also toned it in thiourea. Here's a cell phone pic of it - printed on Ilford MGIV Glossy to 11x14 size, matted to 16x20:

This is really fine! That faint detail in the trees just draws you in, a print in person would be stunning i’m Sure.

Short story behind this image. I'm trying to find the absolute minimum equipment package that will let me use my 4x5, as opposed to my usual Photobackpacker pack with 4 lenses, 6 film holders in a PB case, two meters, filters, Gitzo tripod, etc. I narrowed it down to my Canham, 2 holders in a plastic baggie, the Congo lens which is the most compact of my 6 lenses, a Sekonic L-308B incident meter (smaller than my favored Pentax Digital spot), a black T-shirt, and FLM Traveller tripod all of which fit into an unpadded messenger bag. I realized there was a park near my dentist's office, so I could combine an appointment with a "proof of concept." I discovered the stripped down kit was workable, with two inconveniences: the 180 is a bit longer than my most used 150mm lens, and I missed my little set of repair tools when I found out that a bellows hold-down on the Canham had loosened, and the light leaks cost me two negatives (so I needed one hand to hold the bellows securely to the front standard before pulling the slide).

That's almost a universal image, that could have just as easily been taken within minutes from my house on the other side of the pond.
It does still have quite a color cast to it, but that is easy enough to take out.
