A manual photoshop merge of two 4x5 negatives from the Liddell-Ford Homestead in Basking Ridge, NJ. I will be printing the negatives in my darkroom, and make the equivalent panoramic by mounting the two prints side-by-side. HP5+, Pyrocat-HD, 210 Symmar-S:

Two more negative scans from the Liddell-Ford Homestead, still HP5+ developed in Pyrocat-HD.

The outbuildings made an interesting pattern of triangular shapes:

And windows are always tempting. What surprised me when I developed the negative was that things aren't quite square, even though I squared up the camera. While the horizontal lines (clapboard, window top and bottom) are horizontal, the sides of the window are not vertical. I assume that is due to the age of the structure, unless there is something I did wrong with camera set-up/perspective:

This is at the Lamson and Goodnow factory in Shelburne MA. They were the oldest silverware company in the country till they shut down. Now this site is being redeveloped and construction work is started. It is posted off limits, but through some combination of ancient cameras, amateur use, and friendly talk, we received permission to photograph the grounds, but not inside any old buildings.

Both are superb, as also the other 2 on the 5X7 thread. I'm a fan.
