4x5 Crown Graphic, 150mm Sironar, Shanghai film. Scan from an Epson 4990.
I meant to say one of the few backpacks that can comfortably handle both sizes.
F64 BPX backpack. $209 @ B&H. The only backpack I've seen, except for the PhotoBackpacker, that can handle a 4x5 outfit like mine, (Crown Graphic, 3 lenses and a bunch of other stuff) as well as an...
Check out the YouTube videos by Ben Horne. He has travelled extensively through Zion and the Colorado Plateau with an 8x10 camera. Very nice videos showing various areas you will probably be going...
[QUOTE=FredrickSummers;1340581]I just recently shot a few frames of it and started a test comparing a number of films. I will post the results once I'm done. I don't have any 50 shots to show just...
Very nice saturation with Velvia 100. Have you tried Velvia 50? And if so, do you see much of a difference?
67 years old, got my first 4x5 in 1963 (I was 14). At least now I have the time to shoot. Back in the day, I worked for a couple of photographers, and learned lots from some Art Center (College of...
Forgot to mention, 4x5 Crown Graphic, Velvia 50, exposures were a couple of seconds with an ND and Polarizer.
This is Division Creek near Independence, CA in the Owens Valley. The Bush Lupine were blooming on the banks and the High Sierras loom in the background. 4x5 CrownGraphic, 90mm SA, Velvia 50,...
Well, I finally got my chromes scanned and the Iris and Lupines look nice. The Iris shots are just outside Bishop, CA off Brockman Lane. The creek shot is at Division Creek, near Independence, CA....
I couldn't find you guys either. I'm staying in Bishop, sitting in a field of wild iris. Good weather here today. 150573
With your stories, I could sit around a campfire for hours.
Well, I'm leaving tomorrow AM and should be near Lone Pine in the afternoon (I'm kind of a slow driver). Who knows?
I was thinking this vantage point might be on the Reservation near Brockman off 395, but cruise around I will. I lived in Bishop for a few years in the late 70's and my first trip back there in over...
Gentlemen and ladies:
I've never been to one of your Owens Valley outings and this year we may just pass each other as I'm leaving Orange County tomorrow AM 5/5/16 for Bishop for the wildflowers....
Thanks. What a coincidence. I wanted to go to their campout last year but couldn't get it together. I will check them out.
On her FB page Ms Molnar says it was near the Brockman area, I presume near 395, sort of NW of town.

I saw some FB pictures from the Owens Valley showing some wonderful blue Iris fields that were in full bloom last week. It's looking like time to take the drive North. Is anyone in the Eastern Sierra...
If all else fails, send it to Richard Ritter and he will make it right. Www.lg4mat.net
He works on mine and is the authority on Pentax Spot Meters.

Bishop Creek near South Lake in the Eastern Sierra. 4x5 Crown Graphic 150mm Sironar, Ektar 100.
I agree. My f/64 holds my entire 4x5 kit with the tripod on one side and 2 side pockets for 10 or 12 film holders on the other side. Feels good on my back too. Using Photobackpacker lens and camera...
Anyone like some Buttermilk?

4x5 Crown Graphic 150mms Sironar, Shanghai 100, dev in D-76.
Seems the older I get the less I'm concerned with what the world thinks about me and how I smell. Maybe that's the "old man smell" I hear about. After a week camping in the Sierras, I'm more...
I have to say, the Velvia 50 I used last month for fall colors produced some wonderful colors.

Lundy Canyon, a shaft of sunlight on these trees caught my eye on an otherwise dreary morning.

90mm Super Angulon 1 sec. f/45
Please give me your opinions...
Even if I hadn't taken a single pic, it would have been great. Love the Sierras.
And thank you for the compliment.
I like this composition better, but I seem to have caught some lens flare. I'm just beginning to learn about scanning with my newly-acquired Epson 4990. Maybe there's a way to get rid of the flare...
The next day, 10/9/2015, was a dreary overcast morning in Lundy Canyon. On the way back from Lundy Lake, which was really pretty, but no good light, I spotted a shaft of sunshine on this patch of...
This was on the road to North Lake, 4x5 Crown Graphic, 150mm Sironar, Velvia 50, 10/8/2015.

Well, here's the first scan of the Fall Colors I found on Oct. 8, at Bishop Creek, just below Lake Sabrina.

4x5 Crown Graphic, Sironar 150mm, Velvia 50.
I've seen too many people look silly taking 8 or 10 pics of their dinner, or pie. I'd be embarrassed. It was much tastier in my mouth than on the plate.
Made it back home yesterday, Saturday. Not as much color as I had expected, but just below Lake Sabrina was glorious, North Lake was ok, and Lundy Canyon to the north had some nice patches. The...
Thanks, I'll check that out in the morning. I'm staying at the Horton Creek Campground, really close.
Good colors near Lake Sabrina yesterday.
