(I believe that film characteristics are much more important than exposure and developments techniques, although I do respect Adams’ zone system).

Another great "graphic" landscape, though it seems you're kicking yourself for not having your 5x7 along.:) I think it's an image that would benefit from pretty ambitious editing/manipulation before a final print--for myself, I keep being drawn to that point jutting into the water...emphasizing that salient might be a good starting point.
Re: Large Format Landscapes
I know what you mean. But the 4x5 is almost like a point & shoot on a windy spring day! Hard to resist. The fault on composition is all mine however as I was in hurry.

Glad you like, Alan. I like the ease of set-up of the 45H-1. I was not sure I would like a single control for shift and swing, but I am getting used to it. It's a nice light, compact camera for the focal lengths I use and the way I work. Thanks for askin'.

Ha, cartilage is a non-renewable resource, so I've no doubt you're making the right decisions!:) Otherwise, I continue to admire the visual vernacular y'all find out West, where "landscape" butts right up to the abstract...you should have some nice prints by now.
