February 2012 portraits

[Corran]

Thanks! I'm still fighting fine focusing with extremely narrow DOF, so I didn't want to risk it. I need to get a new ground glass, the 100-year-old one just isn't cutting it!!

That is very cool. I like the comment about it being 1940's. Exactly what I was thinking.

A selfie with the 8x10 on Delta 100 :-)

[Tom J McDonald]

Great Sean. How did you trip the shutter?

Not strictly new, but rather newly rediscovered in a box of older 4x5 negs. My wonderful younger daughter some 24 years ago. More of a snapshot than a portrait, but I still love it (and her). I well remember shooting this with a terrific old Korona with a really nice Velostigmat.

Sean-
That shot immediately reminded me of Ned Ryerson from Groundhog's Day.
