great shots.

this is a place where the time stopped for a while...
The old woman still wear those black dresses,
typical of this place of south Italy.

Concetta, Scanno, Italy, the same place of Strands and other photographers...

Could I ask what focal length & film you used for these?

Could I ask what focal length & film you used for these?

sure, I almost all time use the same lens and film.
This is delta 100 4x5' and the lens is a Rodenstock sironar-n 180, a really nice gem.
In this shot I used the Arca swiss F stuff+bogen-manfrotto tripod.

With Concetta:
it was in the evening, summertime, and the light was very dim, so I asked the madam to stay still for a long exposure, I do not remember how much, maybe 1/4 of second or more.

She did!

for the other pic in the arch i did a faster shoot, was the morinig afther, maybe fast as 1/15... and 180 sironar.
