Interesting color tones, reminds me of something other than a Fuji chrome, like an older Portra NS or something, the colors are subtle.

Very pleasing.

Thanks. I double-checked and the edge markings say "Fuji RDP" which I believe is Provia, although this was shot over twenty years ago so there may have been some color shift in the interim. It was also a bit over exposed and the resulting lack of harsh contrast and absence of deep black shadow areas makes it look less chrome-like.

EDIT: My color-balancing skills are pretty rusty since I mostly shoot and scan B&W these days. It's possible that I unintentionally introduced some extra warmth in trying to eliminate the magenta cast present in the transparency even though I was aiming for a neutrally balanced end result.

Very nice image, Kabbott! It deserves to be printed large and hung in the living room.

Thank you for your kind words!

Patience... Is a virtue...

It definitely is! The guy was also complaining about the light -- how it wasn't quite foggy enough for what he was trying to do

Whatever you did, it was successful.

Thanks, Joe. I was pretty new to LF and spot metering back then, but it all worked out.

The scene is on the Eno River, just north of Durham, North Carolina and is one of the best locations for rapids/flowing water in this part of the state that I've found! On the cold November morning that I made the image, I was out by myself for quite some time and then about halfway through my shoot, a digital shooter came by and I got the classic "Shooting film?! There's not many of you guys left!" A humorous moment to say the least. I think this guy fired off a couple hundred shots hand held during the time he was there.

Very nice. I love places like this.

First time poster here. Just got started shooting in early 2013 when I was gifted a Calumet 4x5 Monorail. I have since bought a Crown Graphic for the portability and have enjoyed taking that out into the field to do landscape shooting.

This is an image shot with the Crown Graphic and a Nikkor SW 90mm f/8 lens on Kodak Portra 160, which was then developed in the Tetenal kit. It would have been shot at f/32 and probably somewhere between 30 seconds and 1.5 minutes for exposure.

Love that contrast with shadows and lights in the mountains. The central cloud is, for me, in a perfect moment shoted.
