november portraits

[karlmartini]

Here's my very first ever large format photograph. Deardorff 8x10, f5.6, 1/30th, Fomapan 100, bath-tub dev in trays. Not very ambitious but it's a start. This is my neighbor who kindly stood in the cold while I fiddled with the unfamiliar knobs. The plain of focus transects her head and falls on the ground about a meter behind her (not by design). I need to get a proper dark cloth and a loupe. It's very hard to see whats in focus on a dull day. I heard somewhere that 4x reading glasses work. Not for me.
