Like the big picture a lot!

the detail crops perhaps

Somewhere around Paris. January 2020. 35x60cm Ilford FB.
In the cropped image with the horse, you can see its breath. It was morning and the air was cool. The horse noticed me, raised its head and looked at the camera.

Well seen Chris. Was the Dallmeyer intended to be a soft focus lens?

Thank you! I think it was made as an all around lens. It’s when you remove the middle lens element it gets very soft around the edges while remaining sharp in center. I have yet to use it unmodified but I think it would be fairly sharp overall .

Down in the woods again. Depth of field is the big problem; here I tried to use front swing and tilt to make the focal plane follow the trail. TriX film, 150 mm lens, scan from FB print.

Haven't posted in a while, here are three shots from the same trip to a local beach (which is exceptionally hard to get to).

This one is velvia 50, dynamic range was a bit too much for slide film to handle.


This one was ektachrome 100 but shot at EV 80 which I feel works a lot better than 100. Just after the sun had gone down so it was a ~15 second exposure.


This one was Portra 400, was hard to get a composition that included the big rock as everything else around the scene was very busy but I think the rock pools reflecting the sky helped a lot.

I just started with a 4x5 and am learning tilts. I find that in shots like this it doesn;t work because the tree extends through the whole vertical leaving the tops of the trees out of focus. I have to try just working with smaller apertures and leave tilts alone for these type shots.
