Large Format Landscapes

[Randy]

One I am specially pleased with. Lake Te Anau, NZ. Pinhole. Shanghai GP3 and D23.

David - this is wonderful. Details on the pinhole...focal length, pinhole size, format, etc...? I can't stop looking at it.

Thanks for your kind words. This is with a wanderlust travelwide set at 110mm I think (focused all the way out), might have been exposed assuming f323. I dont remember the exposure but it may have been as long as 90 seconds, at least 30 anyway. 4x5 Shanghai GP3 in D23, BTZS tubes. This place is on my twice daily dog walking route. Lucky dog. It took a few attempts to get right. Pinhole is fun.

Thanks for the information and inspiration David - I don't do enough pinhole - this is just the kick in the seat that I needed.
Yours is one of those images that...the only thing wrong with it is I didn't make it.

Pinhole photography is fun, haven't tried it on LF but I do have a Vermeer 6x17 with curved film. Was quite surprised to find sellers on ebay selling just about any size of pinhole you could want in brass, would be easy enough to fit to a lens board

Thanks chassis and KarlT.

Hope you guys like waterfalls...

So I went to another one this weekend. Spent several hours trying to puzzle out a composition - there was a lot going on in the foreground. Took a few photos, none of which I was real happy with, because there was a lot of junk in the "middle" ground. This is the photo I liked most, except for that middle area:



Was fiddling with it in Photoshop and with a little bit of creative editing I eliminated the middle ground problem:



Bet no one could tell I cut out the middle unless I told you! I need to go back and try a longer lens with a lower vantage point to simulate this shot, but I don't think it's possible due to too much in between the foreground and waterfall/pool, which will block the view.

The original is a much better composition in my opinion.

Hi!

I wondered if someone would say that. Hard to say without printing and looking at it as such for me. Thanks for sharing your opinion though!
