I've recently started using a speed graphic 4x5 with tmax 400 film.
I'm in my 30's now and have shot B&W 35mm since high school and have had a darkroom the whole time. I did a huge amount of sports photography in high school and college, and a little scenic.
In the past 8 years, I've done lots of digital SLR stuff, scenic, family, radio tower panoramas for work. I do a little infrared digital too, with a camera I had converted by lifepixel.
With the prevalence of digital, I've got a hankering for the unique tone and range of real black and white. I usually use d76 to process the film, and I'll use a dichroic enlarger to print it on variable grade paper. Fairly normal stuff, but I've done so many prints with 35mm, I've got a pretty good system and consistent results that I like.
I will likely do a bunch of scenic stuff in Maine here this spring and summer. I would like to do aerial photos too.
Most recently, I've been at Road Atlanta for the Mitty historic sports car races. I took 75 4x5 photos and 1300 digital photos.
