Re: Tree stump beacon

"... say I do only stop this lens down to F16 and am shooting scenes such as this, I guess that means I'm in ND filter territory if I'd like to record movement? Something about them feels a bit contrived and modern to me, though I'm sure thats just me being ignorant." To the contrary John...

Re: A few from around Kosci on expired film

"The Speed Graphic front standard support can be turned around to change the back tilt into a front tilt. That's what I did with mine to get some Scheimpflug control over deep foreground to background landscapes." Maris beat me to it! Main thing is now you know. Agfapan was a favourite of...

Re: Watching TV

" It came with a work grafmatic too, and the idea of holding a large format rig with 6 shots ready to go is very appealing to me. " John, There was a time that I was a Grafmatic tragic, but it didn't last long. A guy who photographed the "Hindenburg" burning shot a load of 6 she...

Re: Blueys fall

"For what its worth, I looked up the Ilford temperature adjustment charts and a 12min development at 20C has a recommended time of just 8:15 at 24C (my water temp this morning). I developed for 10mins and called it done, and again was happy with the negative." Aaah, Silly me. I was thinki...

Re: Blueys fall

John, My imagination runs rampant with this new crop. I'd go so far as saying it's stunnning. Your picture not mine, but I'd crop the bottom to just include the arch of the twig at the bottom left before it dips onto the path. The two sections of past before the steps are a welcome mat to lure you i...

Re: Watching TV

Bravo John, A kiddie-pic only people with your closeness can even think of capturing. Good move acquiring the Graphic, a 'nifty fifty' equivalent, and quite lush skin tones. Given the FP shutter I foretel a wide aperture barrel mount aerial lens on the horizon. :D :D :D I also see more 4x5 eating in...

Re: Blueys fall

Thanks for the tips on the mats, but I reckon I'll just use ilford charts to adjust dev times... a nice key into the seasons, John, Speaking as one who lived by the time and temperature charts for years I'm sorry to say that later publications (Steve Anchell "Film Developing Cook Book" an...

Re: Blueys fall

Taking my usual storyteller's hat off and replacing it was a purely graphic hat you might find that the bent bowws at the top right, the central parallel parallel uprights, and the right-hand intruding diagonals might benefit and get room to breathe with the bit looser cropping. Presenting a Tableau...
