Large Format Landscapes

[darr]

Here is one of a well known classic-Mesa Arch in Canyonlands National Park.

This was taken last fall on a cloudless morning. I got there at 5am (I was the first person there) to be plenty early to have my pick of spots. By the time the sun rose there were 40 people jockeying for position.

One of the hardest things with this image was making sure there were no tripod legs in the image.

Wow! I see no tripod legs!!
Beautiful Darren!

There was no extension (.html) in the quote. Don't miss visiting Cristopher's main site too, it's impressive!

Lovely scene, Alex - well done. Where was that one taken?

Crater Lake

90mm, polarizer, Astia converted to B&W

The choice of the polarizer was just right. The snow is rendered beautifully.

Impressive still life photos on your site, Christopher! Fantastic Light!
I've already seen you 5x7 box and guess what, I already had those photos in a folder!
I am studying the way of building a point & shoot 5x7 and 4x5 camera, and I've been searching the web, by "home made large format cameras" I had already seen yours. Simple, but effective, congratulations. I just didn't understood why you put quick releases on both top and bottom, should'nt be more desirable to have one on bottom and another on one side?
