Re: Large Format Landscapes
Thank you.
It is a bit stupid story: after I shot this frame I was walking with camera and noticed that lens was not stopped down, so I assumed that I overexposed this sheet by 2 2/3 stops. Decided to try to save it, by pulling at least 1 stop... Now I'm looking and I actually don't know if I didn't stop down lens, or I did. Or I calculated exposure completely wrong. Or I pulled more than 1 stop :) Anyway it worked out nicely in the end. Some kind of magic or may be simply luck. :)
Another thing is that I think Velvia 100 has to much of contrast, so I have an idea/plan to try it as ISO 50 + pull, may be I will like it more this way.

Postcard printed on photo paper. Contacts I expect, by the hundreds. This one a very righteous image of El Capitan in Yosemite. Morning light. About 1936. I've got this jewel propped up on my bedside table right now so I can learn something.

What format was this shot on? Lens?
There almost seems to be a softness about it, yet it seems to be a larger format than 4x5 but that could be the lens that's why I'm asking.

Welcome to the LFPF.
Exquisite Image... I like!!! :)
Your 'humble' choice of lens, shows us that it is 'Not' the lens...
But rather, it is the person behind the camera -- Which truly counts!
I look forward to seeing more of your work.
Best regards, -Tim.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Just got done scanning this one in. Shot two weeks ago at a local reservoir, the Horsetooth. Its a great place to go boating, or just riding.
Taken with a Zone VI 4x5 and Ektar 203mm F7.7 lens. Shot on Foma 200 and developed in Pyrocat MC for 8.5 minutes.

I was using some old T-Max 400 (tmy2) I bought off ebay and this was my first time using Pyrocat MC with it, so the negatives were pretty thick (14 minutes with 5 inversions every 4 minutes), so I need to drop the time down some.
Shot on my Zone VI 4x5 with a Fujinon W 125mm F5.6 lens and using a 2 stop graduated ND filter. Shot on some pretty fogged TMax 400 and developed in Pyrocat MC for 14 minutes.
