I liked your original scan but Lenny's is fantastic.

Sweet Zaitz, the Lenny scan does justice to this chrome.

Thank you both. I was quite happy with this final edit but now I am unsure. I may have to re-edit it again. Starting to dislike the direction I took it, especially in the shadows. But it took forever to edit. Literally spent a few weeks on it off and on. Lenny's scan is definitely great though. Wish I had more to send him.

Zaitz, I personally liked the sky being more blue as in your original. It played off of the blue shadows in the dunes better. But that is just my opinion. The tonality of the scan is certainly fantastic.

Zaitz - Inspirational to say the least. Beautiful work, and a brilliant scan.

I am not sure if these 4x5 can be posted in this thread or not.
These were taken with a Chamonix Saber which does not have any movement.

Holden, great tones. What ISO are you rating your Arista? And if you don't mind me asking, what is your process method (HC-110 dilution, time and temp, etc)? I have been struggling with Arista EDU 100, both 8X10 and 5X7. My latest attempt (I haven't processed them yet) was shot at ISO 25, HC-110 1:63..."H", I believe, and will be tray processed for 10 minutes @ 68 degrees. My negs have been thin and lack contrast. I am getting weary with testing.

Another one of my recent initial attempts at landscape photography. A view of the inland sea in Japan. With my cambo 4x5 and Tri-X 320.
