My issue arrived yesterday. After a skimming the magazine last night, I realized it deserves an in depth review. It will spend next week with me vacationing on the beach in Alabama.

My copy arrived last week, I'm in Australia, so something right is happening.
I too think this issue is very good, I spent last night reading very carefully the three gum colour process.
I love some of the ads in this publication, especially darkroom ones, however I don't think I'll be lining up to purchase the special price $14,600.00 USD enlarger, let alone the other two that are even more expensive

Worse than the photos for the Crown / Speed Graphic series a while back? Hard to imagine but, not surprising given the track record of that publication.Originally Posted by Don Hutton
Mine arrived in Colorado yesterday, one of the best issues in a while. Seeing more of Sandy Kings work makes me want to add one to my collection and the Rabi's images are very interesting.
Well done.
I found it on the newsstand on Monday, and was reasonably pleased with the reproduction of my image included in the Whole Plate article.
Re: May/June View Camera
I received mine in the mail yesterday and thought that the images for the whole issue were reproduced just fine, including mine in the whole plate article.
Nice photograph, Diane...I didn't realize that WP cameras are vertical only...I received mine in the mail yesterday and thought that the images for the whole issue were reproduced just fine, including mine in the whole plate article.)
When I was 16 I thought my father the stupidest man in the world; when I reached 21, I was astounded by how much he had learned in just 5 years!

They're not -- how about this image:

That's a nice image! I didn't realize it was taken with WP. So was half-dome, no? Anyway, I was just joking about it being vertical only because all the shots in the latest VC issue are verticals...sorry if I wasn't clear..

Yes, Monolith was also made with WP:

Just last weekend I had the opportunity to view both an original contact print and later 2.5x enlargement of Monolith at the San Diego Museum of Photographic Arts' Adams exhibition. The glass plate he used must have been slow, since sharpness and grain were remarkably high/low in the large print. Image quality was better than seen in many 2x enlargements from his 8x10 negatives.
You weren't unclear. I just couldn't resist an opportunity to point out that WP was even embraced by St. Ansel.
