Large Format Landscapes

Spectacular!

I agree looks great on a monitor, but not on my tiny phone.

The click through to Flicker is the best as it sizes better.

Late afternoon at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon from Lipon Point. 4x5, 75mm, Tmax100 with red filter and grand ND filter. I believe this was at f/32.

Thanks Randy. I only hope I can get it to print as well.

Color version of the bw I posted. I like the bw better. Something is off about this in the sky. This a shot where I used a grad nd filter and exposed for the shadows. I should have developed at N-1 or -2.

The smoke from the fire is more evident -- does not read like that at all in B&W.

[Steven Ruttenberg]

Not at all. I forgot about the fire till I saw the color version.

Thank you. I will be back there end of June, July and August. South, North rims and Toroweep. For a week each time.

Lula Lake Falls and Rock Creek
Linhof Master Technika, 58mm XL, TMX, Pyrocat:



I usually hike with my Chamonix (3.5 or maybe even 4 pounds lighter) but lately I've been using my Linhof and I think I might need to reconsider if those 4 pounds is worth the frustration I've been having with my Cham lately. Maybe I've beat it to hell and it's starting to get worn-out, but I've been having focus creep problems, alignment issues, etc. I've probably pushed 1000 sheets of film through it...

Anyway, for this shot I was precariously perched on a medium-sized rock that could just barely fit my tripod. I had to dance around the camera, careful not to slip and fall in the creek, while I focused. Then I realized my lens board was centered because I had popped my 58mm on a different board recently so I had to switch my lens board with the 150mm I had so I didn't have vignetting, while also not dropping it all in the creek! I am stupid yes I know .
