Maris Rusis - May I ask what tripod you use for shots like these? (from up above)

Manfrotto 028B tripod with Manfrotto 3047 3-way head. The feet of the tripod are just out of picture in bottom left and right corners. The use of the Schneider Super Angulon 121mm f8 lens means I can look down on the camera ground-glass easily because the tripod can be set lower and still frame the model.

Thank you


I actually have that exact tripod set up! lol...I'll have to try and find a wide angle in the future

Loving the FO5 film...

4x5"

Lovely skintones and the shadowing is great, much more natural results than your previous shots.

I should try this film, it seems super cheap too!

Lovely results you are getting Emil!

Can I ask how are you using the fo5 film? Are you printing on to it and then reverse developing? or shooting straight onto it?

I use is as a normal negative...
however many times the result is great, but difficult to print directly, and then I print it out as best I can and then re photograph this image on a normal LF film... takes time and effort, but worth it I think
