Very nice contrast, both literally and figuratively. And interesting subjects, both near and far. Great concept and resulting image!Quote:

Thank you guys, this is actually an image I've been able to print fairly easy. I apologize if the title is incorrect I thought I had the highest peak lined up but it was so many years ago I took this I wasn't really sure.. I think I'm pretty sure about the lens I used but not totally :)
Steve, it looks to be a little longer than a 90mm lens, but my visual memory of the size relationships could easily be off. The first couple times at Alabama Hills, I thought that was Whitney, also! Nice image -- I am surprised the open shadows of the rock do not have more blue in them.
Amazing landscape, really wonderful tones!Quote:

I've never seen a scanning back image, are they all that unsharp?Quote:

as far as unsharp?
the first is shot with a Veritos lens.. soft focus portrait.. so it just doesn't get sharp wide open

the second. i'm not sure how much sharper you want it.. here's a 100% crop of the bark (from the original color IR shot.. the b/w posted is after contrast adjustment and b/w conversion.

Jim, the Henry Collum path shot is stunning both for the composition and the rendering of the lens. The magenta cast adds even more to the feeling of antiquity and romanticism. Great stuff there. Thanks for posting.

Could you comment on the noticeable tint in the Henry Cowell path shot. Is that an effect from the lack of the "hot" filter ?
With a scanning back is that filter usually required / desirable ?
Thanks
Even better than the closeup you posted in the other thread! Nice!Quote:

yea.. when you shoot without a hot filter, you're capturing both IR & visible light. If you notice the tone of the leaves, you'll see they're *very* pale green. Normal digital camera's have the hot filter already in place in front of the sensor, so you're already removing the IR light. The Leica M8 had an issue with having too weak a hot filter in front of the sensor.. adding a cast to higher IR surfaces/colors. In the case of the M8, it had the side effect of making it an excellent IR camera (by adding a IR pass filter in front, which blocks out visible light).
With the Betterlight, it's supplied with IR hot filters that you 'd place behind the lens ((best placement) , or screw onto the front filter threads.
With no IR hot filter, it adds an additional 3-4 stops of light.. so in vary low light situation, if the end result is either going to be B/W, or I don't mind the 'look', I shoot without it. Makes for very fast scan times

I'm not following, what can't you believe FP4+ can do? What aspect of the image do you struggle to attain from your own FP4+ experiments?Quote:

Stone I would love if pan F+ was available in LF, that would be awsome
I agree, I've spoken to Simon at Ilford quite a few times, they wouldn't even cut some for the ULF run because of the thin-ness issue, I get it, but it's upsetting, he did indicate in a PM that anything is possible and "noted" my request in public. We shall see next year if things change for the ULF.Quote:

I haven't got any experience with HP4 in LF, but in 135 or medium format and I can't do that :-)
I will learn with your experience.
Happy new Year!
I believe I may have used a yellow filter for this, also forgive me it was my second time ever using a LF before and attempting tilts etc.Quote:

I like that photo too. The dark shade in the stone, the detail of the clouds in the sky and the mist are perfect to me. So, I think the exposure is right with the sea foam.
It is another photo to look at for a long time. ;-)
