Large Format Landscapes

The first one in particular is outstanding, Nana. The wave pattern looks a little like a treble clef.

May I ask what you're rating the Fomapan at?

Lovely pictures Nana!

Thanks Eduardo. I talked to my friend who lives just up the hill from that shot and he's supposed to call me next time it looks this way.

Nice work as usual. :D

Thank you, Sam.

As to the tripod, not at all, Sam, it's a wooden Berlebach 8043 Report. Those photos doesn't show reality, at all...I never had more than about 8" of water around my legs.

Thank you, David.

I'm sorry but my english is not so good, I don't know what is a "treble clef".

I've been rating it at 50 asa but, yesterday, I tried 64 asa, on these photos, I think I will go back to 50 asa, because the dark areas, which I aligned with Zone III, actually ended more on Zone II than III.
I'm still doing tests with this film, I didn't find yet the right combination Sensibility/Developer/Time.
This is a very cheap film, that's why I keep testing it, but, I use it for almost 2 years and still don't "know" him very well.
It has a major problem for landscape work, it has a tremendous reciprocity failure....:mad:

It tends to "block" the shadows, too, but, it has very nice middle tones.

Thank you Peter, Jiri, JWAddison and Jon.
