Found this guy and thought some might enjoy seeing it.

That’s a graceful grasshopper – I like how its greenish-bumpy texture blends into the leaf.

I wish I could report that my two insects (above) remained “friends,” but later in the day, they ran into each other and argued. No agreement was reached, and the result was quite horrifying — the poor beetle was alive and kicking, even as the two ants hauled him to their Queen as a sacrifice. (I’ve reduced magnification to 1:1.5)

If the entomologists can identify any of these insects, that would be kind…

I took this with the canon G11..a neat little P&S I carry everywhere. I was setting this up to shoot with the 4x5 and wanted to see what it "looked like".

I hope you are recovering ok?

Mirror shot, testing whether i could mount & operate one-handed (days before shooting a band).

Long story short, hit by a car (upper arm snapped in half), overnight in hospital. Got bit by a mozzie = infected leg, so operation postponed all month.

Hi Allen, 5 weeks on nearly... I complained after 4 weeks & got a neoprene brace which is a significant improvement to comfort, but there's no improvement to the left hand.

They canceled the op indefinitely, saying it's better to treat conservatively. The infection is totally cleared apart from a scar.

This is the reason I've put the Razzle back up for sale; I may never be able to use it again as I can't stretch my arm straight & can't lift my hand to my face. The radial nerve palsy means the wrist is limp/useless and the fingers/thumb can hardly move at all.

I'm determined all the same, but unable to work & exhausted easily.

Get those risers off that deck! It must ride so high!

Tell the kids to watch out crossing roads. I was on my longboard...
It was my right of way, van stopped to let me across, a taxi in the bus lane hit me.

Board got snapped in half too.

I took a wrong turn in a folder directory and found this old scan from 2004 that I had forgotten about. This would have been taken with a Canon AT-1 and a 50mm 1.8 on some 400 speed consumer film. The scan is unadjusted from a lab.

Holman's department store has been a Pacific Grove landmark since 1924. It was the first of its kind on the Monterey Peninsula, featured four floors, and served its community until 1964. At the moment Holman's has an antique dealer on the first floor, and rents studio space on the upper floors. Owner Nader Agha has ...been trying to sell the building or knock it down so a large hotel can be built in Pacific Grove. It just wouldn't be the same without Holman's there on Lighthouse Aveneue.

Until now, I didn’t know how much fun wide-angle macro could be. For this shot, I was on my stomach. Heck, I was on my chin. Check-out that orange lichen! It gets psychedelic when you’re down here. Who needs LSD when you have a potent mixture of this:

We've been told by the moderators that photos made on roll films used in large-format cameras with roll-film holders can be displayed in the regular forum, without regard to the ongoing variations in the definition of "large format". Thus, if it was a Da Yi 6x17 adapter on a 4x5 camera, you aren't limited to showing your lovely photos in this thread.

..wedge shaped slit to make the sky behave.

Christopher, could you explain this in a bit more detail?

cjbroadbent

14-Nov-2010, 04:33

Panoramic cameras usually expose through a rotating slit. There is no way to use a de-grad filter for the sky.
On this particular 70mm Seitz (for a Venice calendar and the nippon Gulliver mag) I had a permanent piece of black tape down one side of the slit at a slight diagonal so that the sky got only half the exposure. The next Seitz I used (ruins in Sicily for mantle-piece concertina cards for a bank), the 220 film version had a custom-made slit on my design, where the two rollers that made the slit were milled by Seitz, not cylindrical but cuneiform to halve the sky exposure.
Since then I did a couple of jobs with a Linhof 6x17 but gave it up because it is too clumsy. Now I just use a 5x7 point&shoot box (http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/9YzcrqoG1WQTTpjO66jYPA?feat=directlink) with a 120 super-angulon and scan a 6x strip in the middle - which qualifies as LF.

Ben - I've just been using the stock wet-mounting tray that comes with the Epson V750. It actually works great - I am impressed by the quality. Those last two aren't even sharpened. I may try getting some drum-scanned in the future - mainly to just get more resolution. Even at 6400 I can only print ~3x4 since the frames are so small. Not that I would go real big with them, but it's fun to experiment.

Thank you, Bob

For all of my medium format infrared work I use a Cokin 007 filter which claims to have a 50% cutoff at 720nm, if I recall.

I do my metering with a hand held Sekonic meter. For the SFX films I consistently use an EI of 12, although sometimes my densities are just a mite thin. For the MACO/Efke films I use an EI of 1.5 and sometimes 0.5 for winter. The Efke films tend to require more exposure at the lower sun angles. Perhaps the IR is being attenuated because of the longer path through the atmosphere?

I am thinking of making a 25% reduction in the EI to gain more density for each film. I should mention that I currently develop all my b&w films in D-76

One of the things I miss about the HIE films was the ability to obtain the Wood Effect using a Wratten A filter. Thus I could use through the lens metering set at a 320 EI. The grain was a little coarse, though.

I find that the SFX produces good results with using just a red filter. The Efke also does well with a red filter as a comparison of the two examples shows. Note that these are both negative scans with a Microtek i800

Example one: Efke IR film with a Cokin P003 red filter (equivalent to a #25). I used through the lens metering with the Bronica.

http://www.photo-artiste.com/images/lfformat/tonopah02.jpg

Example two: Efke IR film with a Cokin P007 infrared filter. I used a hand held Sekonic for metering at EI 1.5. The negative is a little on the thin side although the darkroom print provides better separation of the timbers in shadow vs. the sky.

Thank you, Allen, for your kind comment.

Bob, it looks to me from your comments that you are giving SFX a lot more exposure than I typically use. Are you doing your metering with a hand held meter?

Using the Sunny 16 rule it appears that you are using an EI of 2 with the 92 filter that has a 650nm cutoff, while I normally use an EI of 12 with the Cokin P007 at 720nm cutoff. So you are giving your 92 far more exposure even though it includes more of the visible region. Perhaps I should be reducing my EI for SFX.

Your fourth image with the 87, if I recall, has a cutoff near the 800 nm mark. There is not much IR left to make an image on SFX, but I like the way that the dam house becomes a silhouette against the light in the trees.

Al: Those exposures were all experiments with different filters to see how the film would respond. I really haven't brought out the SFX much since then. I have lots of it in the freezer but also a number of other IR films. Since then I've done a lot more with 4x5-inch on Efke IR820 and Aura.

So I need to defrost some of the SFX and work with it a bit more.

I also just bought the Cokin filter system to fit my MF camera and given your results, I may spring for the P007. I currently don't have a filter with cutoff at 720nm... just the B&W 092 and Tiffen 87 which are much lower and higher respectively.

I think your exposures are much better and mine will need some fine tuning.

Thanks for comparing notes.

Cheers. Bob G.

Last one for 2010! The Golden Gate is lit by a wintry sky yesterday as seen at Crissy Field in San Francisco, California. It was very frigid outside, but still worth the trip to see our west coast landmark. The bridge itself was clogged with traffic, so my plans to photograph from Marin County were dashed. Crissy Field turned out to be a good second option! Happy New Year to everyone.

Beautiful twilight shot, Sam. What do you consider frigid? Doesn't look that cold to me. We'll be at -11 by this evening.

Where is Crissy Field? The location looks to be very close to the Presidio.

Which reminded me of some photographs that I made there with my Bronica a year ago last fall. The film is SFX with a red filter. I waited with my tripod for over an hour and a half for a boat to go under the bridge. I was concentrating on a sailboat that was going back and forth but never reaching the bridge. I finally settled for this yacht.

What was amusing during my wait was that over a dozen vehicles passed by and they would stop or slow down, the passenger window would roll down and a point and shoot would stick out for a moment. Then they would continue on.

I have had similar experiences with the large cameras as well with people coming over to where I am set up to take their snapshot. I am sure that everyone has had similar experiences and this could be a separate thread. There is something about a serious camera on a tripod that makes people think that is the best location for their photo.

http://www.photo-artiste.com/images/lfformat/goldengate.jpg

Thanks Al. Crissy Field is next door to the Presidio. I'd imagine it was 44°F with a stiff wind out there that evening. Not good for LF at all, but the digi did just fine out there.

I like the SFX negative. I've never had good luck with that film, so I always stuck to Kodak HSIR.

From Kodachrome and My M6:

Yay for Kodachrome! Nice slide.

And here's another Kodachrome of sorts. Southern Pacific was set to merge with the Santa Fe railroad in 1986. Thus a handful of merger inspired locomotives painted up in the colors of Kodachrome took to the rails. The merger was denied by the ICC, and quickly both railroads had to go back to their old paint jobs. Most railroad buffs called these merger painted locomotives "Kodachromes." This "Kodachrome" pulls a local freight up to Davenport, California in March of 1996.

Well I had a vision for telephoto shots into the sun.

But the 500-mm zoom (I don't recall the brand) was what made the shots.

I still use it from time to time but mostly focusing on MF/LF now-a-days.

A few more from the same era.

All on Kodachrome 25 if I recall. I really liked what it did with skies.

Here's an old slide from June of 1984. Southern Pacific 4449 simmers on King Street in San Francisco on its way home to Portland, Oregon while pulling the World's Fair Daylight. This very engine ran in regular service on the Coast Daylight from San Francisco to Los Angeles on SP's famed Coast Line.

Canon TL-QL, Canon FL 50mm ƒ1.8 lens, Ektachrome 200.

Bicycling up and down local alleys with my Holga. I've found that Fomapan 100 just drops shadows like nothing! I can just about always get something with Agfapan, but not Fomapan. Plus it's unbelievably curly. I got maybe three decent shots on that roll. The first two are with Fomapan, the second two are with Agfapan. There's some spots that I'm going to follow up with my Graflex.

With that cloudy sky, the fomapan100 probably just needs more exposure.

It's reasonably capable in the shadows, rated at iso64 and properly exposed and developed.

I'm still shooting primarily smaller formats so I should probably throw something up here every now and then. ;)

Thanks! And I enjoyed your image of the D&S narrow guage. That's something on my to do list one of these days, if I ever escape for California.
