Large Format Landscapes

[Harley Goldman]

Hi All,
Last week I hiked up to Nevada Falls in Yosemite NP with my Linhof MT and gear. I wanted to capture the falls in full flood - man it was impressive. I wanted to share these images with the forum - I believe I captured the power of falling water. The mist and wind generated from the falls made it a real challenge in getting the image. The posted images are just scans from my negatives - I am going into my darkroom tomorrow to work on printing the two images.

Len, I hiked to the top of Nevada last Friday. What day were you there? I was lazy and not drag the 4x5 (the back can't take long hikes with weight anymore), but I shot a few digis). Yours turned out nice, they have a classic Ansel look to them.

Eight 16x20 plates. 4 days. Chamonix camera and Dallmeyer 21x25 RR. My friend/assistant went a little heavy on the sepia tone on his phone.

Ed, most impressive! I salute your fortitude and the result is outstanding. Excellent work.

Truly amazing.

I'm speechless.

Row of canon at a civil war re-enactment. Speed Graphic + Gundlach Ser. A Portrait Petzval wide open (marked as an f5 but the iris opens further, est. 4.5), Ilford Ortho + My best job of focusing the Petzval so far.

Oh, so they obviously do focus. Just kidding. Good job at I bet a hectic environment.

Ed, magnificent. They remind me of Delft scenes done this way, except they were pottery, of course. About 14" square plates, IIRC. They were grouted to the wall in my grandmother's sitting room in Rotterdam, ND. A lot of old dutch houses had these Delft landscape scenes done in this way. I even saw a coal burning stove in a house in Leiden done this way in 4" square tiles. It was something to see.

Wow. Would have loved to see this as a dye transfer print, but it's awfully hard and expensive these days, and soon impossible.

Nothing too special, but important for me, as it was my first time shooting color and my first time developing it. So many ways to screw it up, but it (mostly) came out OK in the end. Looking forward to doing more of it while the materials remain available.
