A shot from the weekend before we got locked down. Delta 100, 150mm lens, 4 second exposure with a red filter. This is a scan of the darkroom print.

One Wall Street impervious to financial panics....
1895 Rochester King 8x10, 240mm G-Claron, Velvia 100F
That looks like the same place Ben Horne photographed last fall in Zion. Nice shot.
To be fair, him and a few million other people :-)Originally Posted by jtomasella
Thanks John!
Ben who?
He's a photographer with a pretty decent following on YouTube.

Hah. Tru dat.
Probably not so many with 8x10s, though.
That’s true — if I had to guess, maybe around 100? I mean I know at least 4 people that have taken a similar picture with their 8x10, so throughout time probably still many dozens... Gosh I assume back in the day, when LF cameras were *the* only cameras around or very common, people still visited Zion.....Hah. Tru dat.

It’s fun to think about this.
This week I found a box of negatives I had misplaced since moving a few years ago. These included a bunch of 4x5 and 120 negatives I had selected to print back at my old house / darkroom, so in other words my better images. So I've been having a ball printing some of these to larger sizes I couldn't do back then.
One of these negatives was from November 2014, taken along the Withlacoochee River in south GA. The water was low, with lots of tannin, and the leaves moved along with the flow beautifully. I am pretty sure I used my Chamonix 45n1, Nikkor 90mm, and an R25 filter, on TMX, likely developed in Rodinal. Here's the image:
And here it is, printed to 19 x 23 inches, in the wash:
