Graflex 4x5 Crown Graphic, Agfa Solinar 10.5cm ƒ/4.5 lens on Kodak Tri-X Pan Professional 320, EI 250. Developed in HC-110 1:63.

I would have shot that differently.
But I might have been wrong.
Good picture, Brett!

Thanks, Henry. There are many ways to skin the cat.

I'd like to share a shot from the first batch of film from my Graflex of an amazing friend that flew to the other side of the world to tell me it's going to all be OK some day. This is a photo of a 4x5 contact print. It looks soooooo much better in person.

Taken with a 1945 Graflex Anniversary Speed Graphic (from the USS Alabama) with a Kodak 127mm F/4.7. Shot with Kodak Portra 400.

Feel free to CC, it's my first time shooting large format. And I have a long ways to go.
