Yes the Doldenhorn photo is spectacular & the Washburn prints were superb....before his son-in-law ? took over and made a separate business of it. The one i'm familiar with was a 1999 (circa) print....
DW, The Schmid brothers did the first ascent of the Matterhorn N Face in 1931 (Rebuffat was 10 yrs old).
The adventures of the Duke of Abruzzi and Vittorio Sella are legendary. The Duke of Abruzzi...
I always loved this Washburn photo of the Doldenhorn in the Swiss Alps, but at the time when Bradford Washburn was still alive the silver gelatin print was $500.( a lot of cash for someone with a...
The Vittorio Sella exhibition at the Whyte Museum in Banff in 1999 is hands down the very best photo exhibition i've ever seen, (only the Bradford Washburn exhibition also at the Whyte with both...
I used BW65 (pre-covid) when i used to travel through Montana and was able to stop and pick it up. It was my day to day developer (i saved 130 for exhibition prints). It came in 2 x 1 gal containers....
Beautifully done. You've captured a spectacular space with beautiful lighting.... & a wonderful casual composition. Chapeau!
I've bought many items from Japan. Shipping is always reasonable and fast. Often cheaper than shipping from eastern Canada, and certainly cheaper than from the USA. I've also had exceptional service...
Excellent cameras. I've used them all from the interchangeable lens models to the 6x7,6x8,6x9 both 90mm & 65. Sharp lenses and reliable cameras.

It's not a big expense Pieter. People obsess about many things in the quest to make fine prints. It's a good tool. When you haven't used them it's easy to dismiss it as overkill, because you haven't...
Another nod to the Peak grain focuser.

Yes, good to hear. They are fine folks. At times they've left boxes outside their shop so I could pick them up driving through on a sunday morning. Definitely a friendly & topo notch operation.

Vaughn, it's a small world. The only workshop i've ever taken was with Jay Dusard in Bondurant Wyoming. By that time digital cameras were coming in. A gentleman who owned Ries Tripods and I were the...
Jay Dusard received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1981. His book The North American Cowboy, A Portrait published in 1983 is a real gem!
After the Storm on the Doldenhorn is my favourite Washburn photograph. When I worked for CMH Heliskiing we had a framed 16"x20" of that photograph in the dining room of the Bugaboo Lodge. It might...

It's just a printed sticker.....it indicates the Zone..... but the colour on the sticker is meaningless.
Many stickers were sold that fit that meter. Only the meters sold by Fred Picker were...
Califmike...I'm pretty sure you couldn't get darkroom quality prints with an Intrepid quality printer....
The great printers (people) in either darkroom or digital also have that !0,000 hrs+
