I shot some of that 8x10 Portra100T too from that generous seller, but mine didn't come out quite so nice...

I thought so, too. Here is a quick crop:

I think it looks beautiful like this, and extra-otherworldly with the tungsten balanced film.

I would buy a print of that. That's stunning.

Yes agreed!

Never even considered a crop... Looks great, like a group of art consultants

Sinar Norma 4x5 [HP5+ HC110 Dilution B]
90mm F16
Grad ND + Circular Polarizer

Netsoft: Really nice exposure control, from maintaining detail in the dark woods to the moonrise and sky tones. Your note about the Grad ND and Circular Polarizer "looks" so casual, but the number of things you had to do very well to get this image, from metering to development to using the filters seems to me, at least, quite remarkable! A beautiful image.

Nice work, everyone!
