The recent government shutdown & park closures kept me on the logging roads, such as this one, just outside Mount Rainier NP.

The signs of logging can be distracting, but the scalping, I think, intensifies the experience of gazing up at the sublime volcano, and its diverging glaciers.

This is just outside the Park's western boundary, about 8 or 10 miles from the volcano's summit (by line of sight), and 4,500 feet in elevation. A pleasing perspective, I think: not too close, not too far, not too low, not too high. I had hoped for broken skies, or slope-kissing fog, but no luck this early evening.

Overall, Mount Rainier cradles more than 25 glaciers, and their erosive activity is far outpacing volcanic activity (i.e., the mountain-building type), robbing the volcano, century by century, of a once-higher altitude, and a once-conical shape. It’s so craggy now, it looks like a different mountain from each side, as additional images by people here show. Part of its charm for me.

Two slightly different views of "Abandoned exercise station #8" on a near-by passive recreation trail. I was originally walking along, attracted simply by the texture of the fallen leaves, and then noticed the slightly off-trail pull-up bar slowly aging. Both images are negative scans from 4x5 HP5+, developed PMK, taken with Canham DLC & Rodenstock 150mm.

I have a curious question: What happens in this year with many post about Acadia NP? I didn't see that many post about it few years ago say since 2007/2008, so is it something unusual this year there?

I am not just talking about this forum here, but another forums or sites, at least 5 main forums i use i had many posts about this place, 2 of film forums[including this one] and 3 of digital or general.

Anyway, maybe it is coincidence, nice works anyway!

My answer has nothing to do with the forums... In general people are going to places that are nice but cheaper, Maine is one of those places.

Great shot! Maybe I would like a little wider horizontal view (but keep the vertical). May be, I'm not sure.

I was experimenting with some color negative conversion software I was thinking of buying (and probably won't) and scanned up this image from last fall in the eastern Sierra. For some reason, I had never scanned this one before.

I figured as long as autumn is around the corner, this might be a nice little warm-up. Fall is getting closer and closer.

I was thinking just the opposite, it would work well as a vertical composition. But it's very nice as-is.

thanks guys..
I think the horizontal helps emphasize the winding shape of the dune from left to right. while the vertical format would make this movement more confined.

I see a distinct band of lighter density near the left side. Might this be your copying method or is it a problem with the negative itself?

Somehow I missed this one. Fantastic image, Harley. Looks like it'd be a great print.

Polyglot,

That photo of the meadow of yellow flowers looks seriously underexposed to me. Possibly by two stops.

[polyglot]

thanks, everyone.


Also really great! Wow this is ektar? How did you pop the colors so much!?? Is this morning? The sky looks dark, usually ektar100 seems to blow out the sky for me

No this is Provia. Ektar (shot as a second-sheet/backup/printable), once printed, is even more contrasty & colourful than this and I'll post a scan of the print once I make it.. The sky is dark because I was using a CPL and it was taken at about 3pm in mid-winter.

Under the trees, yes. But with any more exposure, the yellow flowers completely lose detail and saturation. I have another sheet shot at +0.5 and it looks bad.

one is shot the other day, 4x5, 90mm caltar, provia 100. processed this at home with some old chemistry, got some weird color cast.
I think your water is too alkaline, make sure you're using distilled water to mix with your chemistry and do the first and second rinse if your tap water is too basic.

Walking to Swirlyville

An experiment in tilt with the lens wide open. It feels fairly normal as long as your eye is centered on the family walking across the bridge. The plane of focus is roughly along the handrail, but it isn't a flat bridge and the boards swoop in and out of focus.

I don't know how I feel about such obvious tilting and shifting. It might be too pictorial for my taste, and it prevents the eye from wandering around the image comfortably.

It's very neat anyway, I think that it has good and bad points, you're right it does prevent the eye from wandering around the scene, and has that dizzying effect went to much is out of focus, however in the same right it also brings your eye directly to the subject matter at hand, just like this kind of thing is supposed to, and leads your eye that way rather than forcing it there directly from the beginning, so it has a nice affect overall.

Alright, no more shiftiness and tiltiness. A nice, normal shot of a wooden bridge in the Japanese garden, Newport News Park. The light through the trees was really pretty, which made it hard to keep the bridge as the central focus. I wound up shooting it from the backside. The standing stone behind the bridge is actually the back of a dedication plaque (coastal VA isn't known for its glacial erratics).

[bbuszard]

...it has a nice affect overall.

Thank-you, Stone. I'm still undecided. I think it either needs less or more swirliness. I might go back and try adding in some swing to isolate things horizontally.

Thank you! I sold the piece(s) to a couple who are going to put it in the dining room of their (amazing!) new home. I went over with them to the home site and took a look at the room and talked about framing and lighting. Because the wall is finished concrete, the tintypes get lost in the tones, which ruled out a frameless approach. I think they are going to put it in one BIG frame (probably plexi museum glass) floating each piece with about an eighth inch separating the plates. That's the current thinking anyway. On the opposing wall will hang a slice of a giant sequoia tree with something like 750 rings. With a custom table made from the same fallen tree. It should be a stunning room when all completed. I think Sunset Magazine is already planning a story on the house (uber energy efficient). Anyway, I'm happy they're happy.

Here is another from my Yosemite trip a few weeks ago. This is a cottonwood tree along the Merced river.

Autumn trees that still show summer green are a favorite subject of mine – color film or black and white.

The competing colors add a nice tension to the surrounding stillness.

Looks like the smaller plants show the same process of change...

This reminds me of the forest roads in many of my mountain landscapes – the roads I've traveled "to get up here." In many favorite areas, it's not always easy to exclude forest roads from the image, so composing them in an interesting way is a good skill to have.

[Keith Fleming]

Yef,

A super image with great tones. However, while I can see the subject consists of airplane parts, I would like to know if it is a crash site, a sculpture, or what? It sure grabbed my attention!

[Yef]

It's a sculpture made out of crushed military airplane , it's in a forest that full of memorial sculptures .

Luck has little to do with it ... right, Fredrick? One has to get off one's arse and go get it, whether it's cold or not. Lovely scenic.
Nice work. I couldn't help notice the tones and mood are very similar to my original AA 16x20 print of Clearing Winter Storm, Yosemite N.P.

[Fredrick]

Thanks guys!

Jerry, I'd say 95% willpower and commitment, the other 5% is luck for the great light. I'll agree on the similarity between the two of them. The weather conditions looks to be the same as well, but the light in my image is different. I'll admit that I am a big fan of AA's work and I may have inadvertently made it similar in tones and mood, but the image represents what I felt and saw when I pressed the shutter. I'm now jealous of your original Clearing Winter Storm print. I wish that I one day can see an original AA print up close and personal.

[Jerry Bodine]

I wish that I one day can see an original AA print up close and personal.

Stay on the lookout for traveling AA displays. If they're properly illuminated, it'll make your day! I bought my print while at his 1966 workshop (the first of four). As workshop participant, we were offered 25% off his usual price, so I got it for 160 USD (that's not a typo, only one zero), together with one other 8x10 print. I never intend to sell the Clearing (although we all know: if the price is right ...). It's on the wall as a daily reminder/target of possible print quality, framed/matted as he would have. It hangs in my living room amongst my best work. When we remodeled our home, I had the walls in this room painted a middle gray to match a gray card. When guests come I frequently get a "Wow, this looks like Ansel Adams" from those who are familiar with him (most of the world is). I tell them "a couple are his." They usually say "Really? Which ones?" I say this not to boast, but merely to say that I'm coming close occasionally.

I used Ilford delta 100 rated at iso 50 and Ilford ilfotec hc 1:31 for 3 minutes and 35 seconds - N-1 development. I don't remember exactly how I metered, but I use the zone system. I think I rated the dark wood areas at zone 3.

Looking east from Durdle Door towards Lulworth on an overcast misty afternoon.

Not sure why but in the process of compressing into a jpeg the image has taken on a soft and out of focus look. The "Real McCoy" is nice and sharp. Could someone shed some light on this issue? I used Save For Web in photoshop...

So beautiful! From afar it seems very well maintained and not at all an "old mining town".

Also like the way the white has gone a bit purple in the shadows of the houses, this must look nice very big.

Kirk and ckagy, thanks!

Ckagy, it's an amazing wonderland, a cascade of lakes falling into one another in the form of little or big waterfalls,
water pressing through woodwork which sometimes gives one the impression of "swimming woods" ...
There's so much to discover there ...

Spring is also beautiful there, but from what I've seen, for me, autumn and winter are the most stunning seasons ...
Still have to do a winter session myself and looking forward to it!

I've been experimenting with making larger prints (16x20) that depend more on fine detail and close tones than dramatic subject matter.

It's more of a necessity this time of year in New England. :)

Exactly ! The clouds are also different: smaller, lower, more subdued. Soon the snow will arrive and things will become more photogenic again.

[jp]

Everything outdoor is more subdued this time of year in New England. The use of low contrast and simple scene expresses that. I wouldn't call it un-photogenic, but more difficult to show well.

[Andrew Tymon]

Nice one Ken. This one has a quiet intensity about it. To me it looks like the trees either side of the main tree are standing back in amazement and the small tree in the front is bowing down as if to say "your majesty". I like this version but have you tried to aspenize a version of it? I squinted at it on screen and it lowered the low values a little and made separated the trees from the wood. It was just an idea. Hp5 and pyrocat certainly work well together.

I didn't say 3 Rodenstock i said 3 lenses, and i was looking at Schneider options only and ignoring Rodenstock, because also Schneider will discontinue some lenses as well and could be one of those i am looking for.

And i said expensive for film, 20 sheets for hundreds is a lot to me, ofcourse i can buy that, but i was expecting it to be less expensive than that, but i can understand as long those films are discontinued, so they raised the price for something as last stock.

I have normal Velvia 50 packs, i think i have 5 or 6 of those 20-sheets packs, so i am fine for long years, and i am planning to add Velvia 100/100F few just in case if i don't want to run Velvia 50 in few years quickly.

No problem here, Dan. All I have to do is click on your image, then click on it again and I can make it much larger. But to do it "like everyone else's", I believe one does that by linking to an image on one's website or equivilent.

Thanks! Does that count as LF landscape since it's only 6x7? Or is it about the camera body? I'm not criticizing I'm asking because I don't know.

[Professional]

Thanks! Does that count as LF landscape since it's only 6x7? Or is it about the camera body? I'm not criticizing I'm asking because I don't know.

It is "Lardium" or "Merge" format, i also don't know what i can call it, but i think it is medium format because it is about the film at the end, so if it is on roll 6x6 or even 6x17 it is medium format but was using large format gear.

Hmm I was thinking that 6x12 or 6x17 would count as LF since it spans at least one direction "largely" lol.

It's a good compromise right? :)

I am going to buy a 617 format camera later, i would like to do some panos, wish if i have 5x7 or 8x10 then i can use a roll back of 6x17, i don't want to buy 4x10 LF then get 6x17 bcuz this will cost me more than just a body of 6x17 format.

If I shoot a 4x5 negative with my Chamonix Saber (= no movement) is it considered LF? but if I shoot with my ShenHao XPO45 using a 6x12 or 6x9 back is it more or less LF or not at all ?
Soon we might end-up like APUG where one is not sure if using a Jobo and a motor base is analog enough :D;)
I still need to confess that I was very dissapointed when the small format thread became the repository for testing shots with newly acquired digital cameras and phones :p

Cheers,

I am a total sucker for mountain shots so this one is big on my "LIKE A LOT" list.

I really like APUG for many many reasons, but I have to admit, they are certainly persnickety and often a pain with regards to the "acceptable" rules, sometimes I get really frustrated and often confused about what's ok and what's not, glad you guys are more accepting, now I can post some IR shots I took with my 6x7 cambo back, I was under the impression those were NOT ok...

Acadia National Park, Precipice Trail Peak overview (I believe).

Toyo 45a 90mm Schneider f/8
1/30 @f/16 w 77mm B+W 92 IR filter

(which I'm actually selling the IR filter $50 off list price BTW and only used twice, bought new from B&H in January, so $110).

Cambo 6x7 roll film back, Rollei IR 400 120.

here we go again.

this is a picture thread for sharing landscape images. I think there are other threads for Bob Loblaw and his friends to chat.

"For the purposes of this forum, we define "large format" as being essentially 4x5, or larger, sheet film. We do, however, allow what would otherwise be considered "medium format" sizes, IF exposed in a view camera (e.g. with a roll-film adapter), technical, or old-style press camera (e.g. the various Graphic cameras)."

That is indeed very clear and settles the issue for good with a modicum of acrimony.

Thanks! Does that count as LF landscape since it's only 6x7? Or is it about the camera body? I'm not criticizing I'm asking because I don't know.

It is about the camera body (view cameras with movements) -- as per the founder of this forum...with Speed Graphics, P&S cameras using 4x5 or larger, and such grandfathered in.

Roll film adapters of LF cameras also allowed and dedicated, no-movement 6x17's not considered LF.

So it goes. Below is a 6x7 roll film image -- Calumet rollback on a Gowland PocketView 4x5. Photo: Early morning (before the flies got too bad), Gums, NSW, Oz., circa 1995, Portra 160 VC if I remember right. Film commercially developed, printed by me (RA4).
