Welcome from southern NH. Shooting 4x5 sheet and 120 rollback (6x7 & 6x9).
Thank you so much Dennis, I appreciate that feedback. I've never tried Boudoir before, never mind doing it with LF. But yes, I did really think about this a long time - moved the camera to about a...
I like that - nice!

This weekend I did my first large format boudoir session. Feedback is most welcome, as this is my first time doing this.

My good friends (with a too much tilt by accident).
Camera: Chamonix 45n-2
Lens:...
Did a few shots over the weekend in Ogunquit, Maine along the Marginal Way which hugs the coast. Here's a couple.

Oh man, yes, the tall ships are a blast. I was lucky enough to be part of the crew on the Liberty Clipper out of Boston for a race down in Rockport.
Thanks so much John! Yes, Strawberry Banke is still there - such a great place to shoot.
So happy you're coming along Ed. Now I won't be the only one in "slow motion" compared to these 35mm film kids. Ha ha! Actually a good mix of shooters so far - about half shoot 35mm and the other...
Just love this one Don - what a great exposure.

I am guessing this will count as still life. It was my first go with the Chamonix 45n-2 to shoot something like this. Here...
There's no revenue attachment to my site at the moment, but my articles and reviews on photography average about 300 views a day. Though, oddly enough, I do get inquiries to purchase prints monthly....
Hi Abhishek-
I was precisely in your boots a couple months ago and decided on the Chamonix 45n-2 based on my communications with them and the beauty and design of the camera. All that you...
Really nice Ken, I like that!
Excellent to hear, Ed. I decided to have it early May to avoid the crowds. :)
Thanks all!
Ha ha, no, that was a bonus shot. :)
Ha ha! Well, in Portsmouth, NH, there's an old section and a newer section. ;) I think the UK one is Ye Olde Portsmouth.
Decided I was finally willing to share a couple images I've shot (brand spanking new to large format). I've spent the last few weeks just experimenting with a little landscape in the mountains and...
Awesome, thank you! I am doing a pre-walk of it in a couple weeks.
Also, wanted to share my first handful of shots with the Chamonix. I've done a few test shots here and there (landscapes / portraits), but these are my more serious ones:

I sure do: http://www.newenglandwalk.com/ I am thinking of going all LF for this walk. Usually do something different. First one was Leica M-A, second was 120 pinhole. Might as well go 4x5 next! Ha...
Yeah, either venue sounds good to me too. I'm in Derry, so neither are that far.
Also, that show looks like it'll be good, thanks!
Wow, looking like we have a bunch of folks up for getting together sometime. Spring is right around the corner, I think we should make this happen.
As one to always jump into gear with both feet (and after playing around with several cameras) I have decided to make the move. To raise the funds, just sold one of me Leica's and it covered all...
I appreciate that Larry, thank you. I just may take you up on that! :)
Excellent, thank you. And looking forward to getting access to the buy/sell forum in a month.
Thank you so much David. I'll have a look at that - sounds like a good setup. And I think I'll be the same for 4000+ climbs (bring the Plaubel-Makina). Do you see an advantage to new Shen Hao over...
Small world! I am about to do freelance work for Yankee Magazine in Dublin. And Mt Monadnock is a wonderful climb. Good to meet you here!
Thank you for the warm welcome. I'll do some reading on the Chamonix and some compares. Sounding like another promising body. Thank you!
Another local, very nice! I looked a little at the VI's and like their look, and love they were once locally built in Vermont. Hearing you pack with it to the mountains is very positive in my book.
Thanks so much for that reply Alan, and nice to meet you. Great points you bring up here for me, thank you. It's nice to hear your thoughts on what movements you really use for outdoor/landscape. For...
Brookline - nice! Not far at all. Thanks for the welcome. Sure, fire away about optics as that will go hand-in-hand with the body I decide on. My 2x3 has a Linhof Schneider-Kreuznach 105 which I...
Good Afternoon!
My name is Ray and I am from Southern NH, standing on the ledge and getting ready to make the plunge into LF photography - waiting for the right body to be found. A bit of history...
