I posted this over to the 1st image of the year thread, but wanted to get it in on the 5x7 one, too.

It's nice to see someone actually using caffenol-c for a real photograph. I keep it there on the shelf as a decoy for the eco-inspector.

Interesting typewriter! I've never seen one where "Q" replaces "A", and "W" replaces "Z".

QWERTZ = Swiss, AZERTY = French, QWERTY = ethnocentric Anglosaxon.
Since a qwerty keyboard is special order only we euros have to adapt.

QWERTZ is also German.

Another Verito on POP


and another POP

A ton of gorgeous work and saw your site and others around here. I had to ask you what lens is this in this second image? It is obviously a wider angle lens, but it doesn't look quite "that wide". I'm going on a major guess that it is maybe a 120mm?

Excellent thread and if there isn't one yet, a 1/4 and whole plate thread should definitely be in the works. I personally love the 5X7/8 ratio and always a love for the even wider and panoramic ratios. Square can look good as well, but I'd definitely use 7X11 if only the DOF and ease of nailing down sharp images was as easy as 4X5 or 5X7.
