Large Format Landscapes

Very nice Max!!

love that garage shot Max!

Intimate landscapes I prefer to grand landscapes (perhaps due to them being more available, perhaps due to some Eliot Porter influence). This is with my 7.25" verito in the woods next to my house. fp4+ in pyrocat hd. http://www.largeformatphotography.in...=1#post1255316 shows the general scene I was working in.

Nice shadow detail.

Were you using the CF with this?

Normally I try to avoid using the CF due to the reciprocity of Ilford FP4 & HP5, but I think in this shot I did use it, hence the super long exposure time.

My jaw drops at the wonderful work whenever I enter this thread. I usually avoid it because it is overwhelming and soooo much good stuff to look at. That and I get so backlogged, there is just too many images to comment on them, because I end up loving 10-20 of them!

Keep it up everyone. Always inspired.

That little cascade flowing across the sedimentary rock is beautiful. The light through the trees has not blown out either - did you use N-1, or N-2 to achieve this?

By the way, what's the CF you mention?

Last week we did some off-trail hiking and scrambling to get to the face of the glacier in this photograph - the Feegletscher - which is the source of the Fee-Vispe river, and which is a tributary of the mighty Rhône. The degree to which this glacier has retreated, even in the last five or so years, is astonishing;

Hey David, I chalk-up the highlight retention in this image to the Pyrocat HD (N processing) and careful levels control while scanning. The CF = center filter, something that's great for precise work to avoid vignetting on 8x10 with the Schneider Super Symmar XL 150.
