Don't discount where you live. It looks like there could be a lot of interest in those rocks, and I think I can spot a tree with some real "personality" in the upper right?

That’s a brisk wind in those trees.

:cool:

:p

Not sure where to put this image so I guess it'll go here. I tried to shoot some HP5 in Ruby Falls Cave and it was difficult, obviously. I made one image at the falls braced against some railing that came out okay - about 4 second exposure at f/11. Cropped slightly to square, as I did not like the lights in the pool.

A better composition/image was back further up in the cave but nothing to brace on, it was a bit blurry.

Very nice.

View from Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire.

4x5 dry plate coated with a faster (~ASA 25) version of my emulsion.

1/10s @ f/16. Schneider Symmar 240 f/5.6 on Graflex Speed Graphic.

This is unsensitized - neither orthochromatic nor panchromatic but I was still able to capture clouds. Just had to meter it right and get lucky with the UV levels that day.

Nice! Did you visit Megalithia while you were up there? I want to go over there and check that out. A few other secret spots on that mountain too. (the spy cave, eagle's nest, etc.)

I didn’t. The kids were with me so that puts a limit on where I can explore.

Wonderful job with the Ektachrome! I've managed to acquire a couple 50 sheet boxes of (S)aturated Ektachrome that I'm saving for an early spring trip out the Big Bend Natl Park.

Lucky you! I’ve never shot that stock but I’ve always wanted to, I’d be interested to see what you get!

One of my first images with the Deardorff V8 and also one of my first self developed images (as a contact print of course).
Sorry for the phone shot but as of now I have no scanner available.
Still learning but I am very happy about the first results...

WHO sells the Mercury 4x5 and where? I've tried to contact them a dozen times without any response.

I haven't talked to Zach in awhile. But there is a fairly active Facebook group and he usually responds there. I assume you emailed him through www.mercurycamera.com . I don't know why he hasn't responded if so.

Many thanks. I detest facebook, so that option's out. Yes, I emailed through the company website directly.

Thanks very much for the response!

I know some folks who just have an alias on FB with no other info. It's really not that big a deal. The user group is a helpful place. But you do you of course.
