Hi all,
I've been lurking here for a few weeks, trying to absorb as much info as I possibly can about large format photography. I've loved shooting pictures for a long time now, and growing up in the age of the digital camera, that's mostly what I've used since I was a teenager (though, first digital camera I ever used was 0.9 megapixels and took floppy disks!). I remember shooting film as a kid, but ended up getting a digital SLR, and proceeded to take hundreds of pictures everywhere I went, and I got lost in the avalanche of files.
Anyway, a friend of mine had a Toyo monorail camera that he hadn't used in a while, and gave it to me for a long term loan kind of deal. Bought a 100 sheets of TMax, an HP processing tank and jumped in! I also just ended up buying a Zone VI camera to take out into the field with me this summer (Isle Royale, Alaska, Montana). I'm looking forward to all the great resources on this site, and hope I can get some feedback on my shots.
Here are a few of the first shots I've taken: (they are just negatives scanned on a flatbed scanner, so, not sure how they will look once I contact print them.)
