A lady of distinction.
Graflex Speed Graphic, Optar 135 f4.7. Polaroid Type 54. Vivitar 285 handheld.
Test shot with Polaroid Land film back on my Graflex Speed Graphic. Fuji 100C. Guessing the marks are from gunk on the rollers?
Rear Tilt shot wide open @ f/4.7
Shot a couple of sheets to test my Mod Photographic 4x5 sheet film holder - it worked brilliantly! I can now do 6 sheets at once in my Patterson tank using only 10ml (at 1:100) of Rodinal!

1 hour exposure, f11 I think.

I can't get the scanner that will scan 4x5 negatives to work with Windows 7 so I went old school and made a contact print of this shot with the Speed Graphic and TMax 400. (I'll admit to tweaking the curves on this one, I needed a longer exposure of the print but I was tired of being in the darkroom)
Walt Disney Conert Hall--
Continuing to test run the SG/AE. I wrote on a IG post that looking at the image on the ground glass is pure magic. It's stunning.
Ideally I hope to shoot portraits with the setup, but need to practice the 'workflow' required to expose a sheet of film before I waste anyones time. There's alot going on with this camera and stumbling thru making the pix surely will not breed confidence with the subject..HA! Thanks for looking

I had to shift my intended position yesterday because I didn't have enough ND/Pola to stop down the scene. This building is almost mirror like, and I was 'late' getting there.
I wanted to shoot at 2.5 to try to isolate a peak and let the rest fall off into AeroEktar goodness. :) Happy accident with the woman breaking thru on the right. Didn't see her until today.
Also, I look to have a flare. Sun was just out of frame to the right, but I wonder if it's the sun or the reflection? Either way..lesson learned....there is ALOT of glass on that lens. :)
Thanks for looking

Boring subject, it's a test plate to see if the chrome alum added as a hardener worked; that is, didn't affect development, and was able to stand up to warm developer. I'll be helping to teach a workshop in making and shooting these plates next month and the shooting will be at a large state park in NY in mid-August so possibly very warm in the cabins where we'll be processing the plates. I was asked to verify the formula for adding hardener -- I processed this one in 90F (!) developer and stop, room temp fixer (~75F) and cooler wash water. Despite this stress test, it came through just fine (albeit the development was much speeded up, as you'd expect).
