Thank you, Greg.
Good work Brandon.
Hello everybody,

It is a small beach in Normandie (France), on the Channel coast near Mont St-Michel, I was fascinated by the variety of textures and layered tones of the rocks, an evident subject for monochrom photography.
On the second view, the walker silhouette increases the impression of gigantism given by the low and wide angle (150mm focal length), but in reality it is a bit less impressive. :-)

Thanks Steven. Good work on the GC image. I think that shows the strength of color neg over chromes. There's more foreground interest here than your other GC images IMO.
Here's an image I made on a short roadtrip this past week. This place is called Shaking Rock, and is located in Lexington, GA. This huge rock at one point could be moved with one hand as it was precariously placed on top of the granite outcropping. But at some point it finally succumbed to gravity and is no longer movable. I stop here every time I pass by, and this time finally had my 4x5.

I like this Corran. Did you put the big rock on top?
Early sunset from Cape Royal. This was a little northwest of the actual point. If walking towards the tourist trap viewpoint, it would be on your right about 50-75 yards before and down a slight hill. 4x5 on Portra160, f/32.

Wonderful image Steven!
Thank you Jon.
Here's a recent photo from one of my hikes. This was early into a seven-hour trek, so I could still climb down to the lower part of the falls. If you've never used RPX 25, it's absolutely amazing. I tested it's dynamic range against TMax 100 and New 55 Atomic-X and it clocked both of them without trying in terms of the amount of image data in the shadows and highlights. I tested each at equivalent EVs, box rating. It may be my new favorite black and white film.

Hoo mama that's a pretty one.
I shot these over the weekend on a camping trip. Complete stroke of luck that the night exposure had the North Star in the frame.

Spent last week at a conference in Banff, AB. Saturday I was able to get away for a drive up to Jasper and back, and get in some practice with my DIY 4x5:

Late afternoon at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon from Lipon Point. 4x5, 75mm, Tmax100 with red filter and grand ND filter. I believe this was at f/32.

Thanks Randy. I only hope I can get it to print as well.
Color version of the bw I posted. I like the bw better. Something is off about this in the sky. This a shot where I used a grad nd filter and exposed for the shadows. I should have developed at N-1 or -2.

The smoke from the fire is more evident -- does not read like that at all in B&W.
Not at all. I forgot about the fire till I saw the color version.
