Yes, I didn't pay attention that Marvin was from the UK. Many years ago at work some contract employees from the UK were hired. We had our fist lesson in the differences in language when one of these guys looking for some office supplies asked where we keep our rubbers.

corn -- what the British call a crop of grain when they don't have a clue what type of grain it is. :cool:

Greetings all. Long-time lurker, but my first post. I've had a Korona 4x5 for about 25 years but for various reasons I've rarely used it. I'm now making the time to do so and have had a lot of fun spending some effort on it. Here's a shot from the Great Sand Dunes National Park last April, just before sunset.

Great Sand Dunes National Park

This was shot on Fujichrome Provia 100F with a Fujinon 90mm f/8. A little back tilt was all I did to get foreground to infinity focus. Meter reading was done with the Pocket Light Meter app with my iPhone (reading on the dunes, then reduced by half a stop). Processed at home with the Arista E-6 kit, plus stabilizer I made, using the taco method. With fall coming, I hope to get a lot more time with the camera.
