My Dream lens.

Matt, very nice. The images were beautiful and a joy to help you print during the workshop.

Here are a couple of carbon transfer prints made at Yosemite with the Tri Tran Signature Lens. They were shot in Yosemite and printed in Ansel Adams' Darkroom as part of a workshop with Vaughn Hutchins and Jim Fitzgerald. Big thanks to Vaughn, Jim, and Elizabeth! The first was shot with the 12" element and the second with the 18" element.

Good job Matt, keep practicing. You've got Best Carbon printers mentors.

[Jim Galli]

Awesome Matt. This is the stuff we dream about.

That is a magic lens! The first time I have seen reflections that seem sharper than what is being reflected! The carbon printing process did hold those highlights nicely! it was great to have you in the workshop!

Matt,

That is a really nice picture and congratulations!

Tri,

I need to borrow your 18 inch lens someday to test it.

Thank you Jim , Jim Galli and Vaughn.
I'm glad that you both keep the Carbon process alive and happy to hear the lens has produced adequate contrast for Carbon printing.
Hugo, you can join me to shoot anytime with my TT lens , all focal length are available up to your 16x20 plate. My favorite and most use is 18in from 8x10 to 7x17. Here are a couple 7x17 Carbon that I have made recently. BC, Light Black , Sumi, Umber and Metallic gold pigment was used for these images. Arches Platine water color for final support.

Tri,

I will take your generous offer and these are really glowing images of trees. I think you should make a slight change of your first name to Tree.

[Peter De Smidt]
