From last evening, went through most of my props, including these cool boxing gloves

That's wonderful Stephane. I'd love to know more about your lighting, the film and processing.

Thanks, all! I'll probably post more here as I get them scanned. It's been a busy two weekends of shooting. I'm in the process of setting up a new studio and these are some test images I made to be able to show potential clients.

Other examples of my photography can be seen on my Flickr account:

I'm a format and technology agnostic though, so only some of the work there is large format, but my Deardorff 8x10 and Century Studio 10A are by far my favorite cameras to work with.
