Justin is the Creative Director of Chichester Festival Theatre. I couldn't photograph him in the auditorium of the theatre because final rehearsals for the opening play of the festival were underway. So I decided to use the communal orchard alongside the theatre that was in full bloom at the time.
The scan is reversed. The light was actually on the camera right. Setup was an Elinchrom strobe with a Deep octa camera right (flagged to keep the light of the background) - a gridded spot on the backdrop for some texture. And a SB900 on the floor camera left at 1/16 for a bit more detail in the dark areas.
Shot with a Cambo SC and Rodenstock Sironar 210mm f5.6 lens on Fomapan 200 4x5 film.
Developed in Df96 and scanned with an Epson V850.

Large format really shows me how easily I can become distracted despite slowing down and really looking around me. I missed a shot because other hikers wanted to interact as I was setting up a shot, and I totally screwed up and missed it since I lost my concentration. I'll go back (hopefully!) to see if I can recreate the shot. But I so value LF since it makes me more observant, and the details are just incomparable. This is the last of my expired HP5 so will need to pick up some more 4x5 - I'll be finishing up my Ultra 8x10 soon as well, so time to find deals on film! Thanks to all the flickeranians who continue to inspire!
Further exploration of the Sutton Pass mountain range with my large format camera. After scrambling up the waterfalls that lead to the base of this Vancouver Island peak I figured a composition featuring both the water cascades and mountain subject would make a fitting image.

This is the dry side of the Columbia Gorge about 10 years ago. I was still fairly new to large format, and developiong my own film, but this one needed very little cleanup.
One of the winter weather phenomenons that the Pacific Northwest is proce to is blank skies, either due to no clouds whatsoever, or total, uniform, gray overcast. This was the overcast version.

4x5 Dry plate negative, homemade silver gelatin.
Still unhardened gelatin,, dried for two days, plates were subbed with albumen, no frilling but as you can see the gelatine did not cover the albumen when pouring the plates. They are dried laying flat hence the dust I think. Shot at 6 asa, in the morning that worked fine but 3 or 1,5 asa would have been better here.
This is my third batch of silver gelatine, followed a recipe given by Mark Osterman this time, It involves a lot more treatment then my first recipe but gives a faster and cleaner gelatine. And I left out the ripening which will make it even faster.
I just did the chilling, noodling and washing, pretty advanced stuff.
And the light is awfully grey here lately.

Took another shot at editing this to squeeze out details from the shadows - the slide is gorgeous, with clean detail in there. Still nailing my workflow down.

Behold, for in the middle of the Garden I planted two trees. One is the tree of life and the other is the tree of science. To not make everything overly complicated I told them, hey, maybe just eat from the life one; that one should be safe. Yeah, forget about the other one. I honestly don't see how this could go South.

These hands belong to my mother, Betty Jo Gregory. She was 23 years old when she graduated from the Cadet Nurse Corps Program in 1948. This program to train nurses started after America entered World War II. In exchange for this training Betty pledged to actively serve in the service for the duration of the war. The war ended and she went on to use her skills to work as a registered nurse in hospital settings.
I made this negative 2 weeks ago in the backyard studio.
Hand-pulled photogravure print is made with Charbonnel Burnt Umber, Noir 55981, and Bistre inks on Hahnemühle copperplate paper. I printed an edition of 6 numbered prints and 2 A/P prints.
Taken with a Vermeer 4x5 pinhole camera using Ilford HP5 film. Print made using Bostick and Sullivan cyanotype solution and the sun. Exposure about 3 minutes on a sunny day.
