I like the way they are currently presented, however I will ask you, have you tried stitching them in Photoshop to make a single image? I am just curious if there is a reason you have chosen to leave them the way they are. (Not saying there is anything bad with the way they are currently presented! I still love it.)
Thank you,
Dan
Hi Dan, thanks for your comment!
Indeed, the two shots complete each other, giving a sense o cycle of water.
But I didn't try to stitch them, actually I think it can't be done since they don't overlap (also means that I can use all the area of the negative). My intention was it to be done this way to reinforce the feel of "window" to the landscape.
I've read your post about going through all the landscape pictures and purchasing a 4x5 camera and would like to say I'm a beginner in LF to (started this year). It can be very intimidating, but watching others pictures is a great way to learn, along with going out to shoot and making mistakes.
Cheers!

Thanks, the exposure was 1 second, witch I find is the best for capturing moving water in most cases. It's not possible every time, but in this case I got lucky.
Cheers!

George and Eskinazi,
Nice images, both. Of course if I were to hang them on my wall, visitors would gravitate to Eskinazi's, dismissing George's image as "just a rock." But there is a lot to look at there! I think most people just look at things quickly, recognize (or not) what is there, and move on (even if it is grand and striking). It is a shame that they can't spend more time with an image. And as for your presentation, Eskinazi, I keep thinking I should do that kind of thing, but it never seems to occur to me when I am "on location."

Re: Large Format Landscapes
All of these are very arresting, and each says something very different from all the others. Thanks for posting them, guys.

This Canyon is called Cānion do Itaimbezinho, and it's located in the border between the two southern most states of Brasil, Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina.

Indeed George's photo is great, that rock looks like a skull, great finding!
As for the presentation, I've realized that the limitations of large format (and of my one lens) actually added to the creative processes.
