    Re: Bridal Falls Provincial Park

    Much obliged, Andy—I might burn a couple of sheets, then call it a day. :). Otherwise I look forward to more
    YT content…last time I was surprised to learn BC had cacti!

    Re: Bridal Falls Provincial Park

    Really enjoying all of the videos dropping lately, Andrew. A question that I had from this one, though: what’s the best way to goose HP5+ into a density range appropriate for, say, salt printing? ...

    Ha, given that Sloss Furnace has become a photo destination of sorts, I could have staked out the territory ahead of the crowd since it was within walking distance of my house. (Otherwise, most of...

    Re: Hello from Alabama!

    Excellent, my wife and I taught at UAB during the 90’s before moving up the road to UT-Knoxville—Alabama really is a great place to explore. Given your mining project, I’m assuming you’re in the...
  5. Re: Help me make a decision... Sinar Norma or Toyo.

    The Norma will always take up more space than the Toyo, but I doubt the later will give you much in the way of weight savings like, say, a Chamonix Alpinist would. As for ease/speed of set up, check...
  6. Re: New Daguerreotype - With magnified image detail

    Thanks for elaborating, Francesco—you’re providing a great introduction into what that medium is capable of.
  7. Re: New Daguerreotype - With magnified image detail

    Excellent, that is impressive work! A mundane question, though: how are you fabricating the metal border for the glass? I’ve seen some photographers use caming as you might for stained glass, but...
  8. Re: I would like some advice on what type of camera I should buy for a long photo tri

    Since everyone seems to mentioning shorter lenses, I might put the Walker Titan Xl on your list:

    Re: Make water look wet

    That’s a great question—like Vaughn I’m working under canopy, so factoring in reciprocity flowing water has a tendency to turn to froth. One approach you might try is to segment your exposure time...
  11. Re: Long Process Lenses for Landscape? 24" RDA? APO-Nikkor 610/9?

    Excellent, thanks Drew—I will admit that I’m a bit of a lens snob when it comes to my MF kit, but still more “bang for your buck” when it comes to LF lenses. Definitely good to know options, though,...
  12. Re: Headed to Köln for 5 days tomorrow…

    It might be a longish day trip, but I could spend a lot of time photographing in Trier….great Roman architecture (the Porta Nigra, Dom, and baths) as well as the Electoral Palace…the countryside in...
  13. Re: Long Process Lenses for Landscape? 24" RDA? APO-Nikkor 610/9?

    Excellent, those are some impressive lenses, Daniel—for myself, I’ve decided that an extra 18” rail is about all I am willing/able to handle under field conditions….definitely could see how the wide...

  15. Re: Long Process Lenses for Landscape? 24" RDA? APO-Nikkor 610/9?

    Ha, the Ektanon is precisely the lens I ended up with….I actually sent it to SK Grimes to get it mounted and threaded for modern 77mm filters and still came in for much less than what a 600mm RDA...

    At any rate, don’t let me scare you off—especially if you’re willing/able to go in by headlamp.
  18. Re: Fall Colors trip in the Blue Ridge Mountains?

    Ha, out of Christian charity I might advise you to make a U-turn and fetch up in the Guadalupes for the duration—we locals shelter in place starting now through Thanksgiving.;)

    Re: Large Format Landscapes

    This one has definitely captured the essence of the Southern Highlands—the patch of light upper left especially packs some soteriological heft for us trout bums. ;)
  23. Re: Wind movement in scenes especially with large format photography

    If you’ve not already, check out John Blakemore’s work—conveying the effects of motion in both wind and water was a preoccupation of his in many of his series.

    Definitely! That shot is about 200 yards across a little creek bottom—the tree was about 7 or 8 feet DBH (though of course hollow as a drum)…I actually heard it come down from a mile and a half away.

    Nice to see you’ve been out in the field…the leaf resting in the cupped root bole is a great detail, but I have to say the texture study in the second makes it my favorite—good luck with your prints!
