Yep, old boats are cool. Your first B&W is fantastic, great job.

I know, it's a cliche one... but ideal for practicing the tilting and grads stuff (in half darkness and without mosquito spray )

Comments and critiques welcome!

That's a real beauty. And especially nice since those 90's are a hassle to focus in low light. At least mine is.

Here are a couple. The first one is from a small lake in northern WI using an 8x10 with a Fuji 300 CW and the second is from Lake Superior using the 8x10 with Nikkor 150 SW

Those falls colors on #1 are spetacular. Nice job!!

That's a pretty darn good first LF B&W! Nice indeed!

This was taken last Saturday while out with the Midwest Large Format Asylum. It is sunrise over Lake Michigan from the south side of Chicago. The sun was rising so fast that I clipped part of the sun on 2 negatives as I made two exposures. The sun only peeked out for about 30 seconds as it mostly hid behind the clouds. The image is both negatives sandwiched to complete the circle of the sun. As the composition is mostly symmetrical I ended up liking the crazy double exposure of the trees so the image is not so boring.

This one is a composition at sunset on Kuaui where the lava flow meets the sea. I was certainly feeling the pressure of the elements. The wind was getting up, the sun was setting fast, it was starting to rain and the waves were crashing ever closer to the tripod.
