Sometimes it is sure luck. I exposed the first 4x10 on the 8x10 sheet, but thought it was not worthwhile to try again on the other half due to high winds. This is out in the open on the top of Fort Point, unprotected from the strong wind through the Golden Gate except by my body.
4x10 neg with 300mm lens, so the bridge is not far away. Ended up just fine and dandy. Chances are a second attempt would have been a blur. The rivets in the steel are nice and crisp -- a carbon print. I went up there with the 11x14, but had to hide behind a wall.
The negative was also scanned and a 7 foot tall inkjet print was made -- so I got to see how sharp it is.
