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:

Re: Large Format Landscapes
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.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Cool lines and scene. You might consider a slight rotation to level the horizon? Looks a little off to my eye.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Thanks Vaughn and Jonathan. I was out for the day shooting waterfalls with a few mates and between falls we came across this field and stopped the car in a real hurry... We all came home with very similar shots... I shot this on FP4+ and on velvia 50. Unfortunately my velvia shots were a bit too dark to work with (metering without CPL and shooting with CPL = disaster.) One of my mates took his shot from 5ft to the left of me, with a 300/9 nikkor on 4x5 velvia 50 and his results were nothing short of stunning

Nice composition. I can't help wondering though how the field and sky are the same uniform shade of gray?? Were you using a yellow filter with yellow grass or something?

If larger on your computer screen is what you mean...Click on the image, click on it again -- then use 'Control +" to enlarge on PC's or 'Command +' on Macs..

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Corran - i didn't filter it at all. This was facing north west in the afternoon. After we left i thought 'that would have looked better with a red or orange filter.. Next time.

Thanks Vaughn, forgot about that... But still, it pretty quick starts to fall apart because of the small filesize

Ever wonder what the landscape looks like in south GA? Well here you go. A bunch of swampy nothing. Sorry I didn't spot the dust off.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Very nice Bryan! I love the small sun reflection on the swamp water... I need to do some shooting in the sun photos myself.

Re: Large Format Landscapes
Thanks...personally I'm not really excited about it but that's because I'm so bored with this kind of view. It's all I see. But I'm sure it's exotic to others living in different places!

Re: Large Format Landscapes
In Kansas if we want to photograph mountains we've got to dredge them up ourselves.
Dredged sand down by the Kaw river.
