Tin Can - thoughtful questions. My thought was to create a site to discuss and celebrate the field of ultra large photography, not just 20x24 inch works. Would you mind sharing your thoughts about ULF here (who you like, your experiences doing it, how you define the field, etc). I know you don't use Facebook so this would the right forum.
How would you go about celebrating ULF in 2024?
Thanks,
Francis

I have Masters. ARTIC. Live Art. My final project was about money, cost of college, student loans 25 years ago!
Which dovetails with the high cost of all ART and photographs

20x24.... That is even less rectangular then 6x7! And not square. What is it?

Havoc, I was having fun with the fact that the upcoming year (2024) corresponds to one of the ULF format sizes (20x24). Just looking for an excuse to explore and celebrate ultra large photography. I was not trying to limit this to any particular ratio.
One of the things I like about working with 20x24 in my own work is that it gives me a lot of leway in croping once I develop the negative and see what I have.
I need to be using my 11x14 more if I am to call myself a ULF photographer. 8x10 has been my usual go-to, but 5x7 is so sweet! And even 4x5.
