August 2012 Portraits

[Pfiltz]

4x5 Graphic View / Arista 100

Screwed the pooch. Over exposed by 4 stops. Salvaged somewhat in development.

That could be an embarassing admission to make... but there is a lot of character in your portrait.

Cool. Just cool.

Whole plate on trophy aluminum, Krista. Still frustrated with the unsatisfactory performance of my lighting for interior shots. Compact spiral fluorescent banks with ~3000 watt equivalent still a 30s exposure and 3 full power pops of White Lightning 3200. About to try a loaner set of Speedotron 2400 to see if I can reduce exposure times.

And now for something completely different..

4x5 Chamonix 45n2, S-K 210/5.6, Ilford 400

Thanks. Brian & SergeiR

I have no problem mentioning when I screw up. Still cutting my teeth on all this 4x5 stuff, especially developing.
