Went back to Ken Lockwoord Gorge this past weekend. I'm somewhat habitual by nature, so I will keep going back to the same places over and over again. I find it hard to believe you can get the true essence in any place by going there once.
I loved the contrast of the sun baked rocks and the trees in the background. The sun came through the tree line and hit that low lying patch of leaves but left the rest of the woods in heavy shade.
Front view of my pocket4x5inch pinhole camera, almost finished, just needs a shutter. The pinhole itself is made by : Stenocamera
-------------------------------------------------
I have started a group for large format pinhole only as to separate it from the rest of the pinhole images. Because its another world and focal length in large image photography.
Images must be made starting from 4x5inch and upwards, bigger the better and using plan film, polaroid or photographic paper to create the images. Using homemade or modified large format cameras.
Everyone that is into large format pinholes is welcome :
Originally purchased to engrave tombstones, we've discovered many purposes for this machine over the years. Oversize stencils are a big one.

Lens cap, not shown, is a cap for 4" PVC plumbing pipe, painted matte black. It's a loose fit, and I might put some felt around the inside, but so far it hasn't been a problem.

This is a portait of a friend. I think I am going to re-do this portrait. Try to set up another sitting. There is something about it I like, although technically speaking it's not that great. It was a long exposure, about 1 sec so there is a slight blur to the image. I shot this using natural light coming though a window. The light was fading fast so I used a wide aperture and a slow shutter speed.
Don't know what I try to accomplish with these portraits. Not sure if they are a window "into the soul". But I do think they are interesting. I think it's part documentary, part art.
The 4x5 model allows u to shoot pinhole shots with a normal film holder behind. The box that holds the pinhole camera is also a 6x8 pinhole camera.

There was a positive when I peeled the film apart, so I'm not sure what I'm looking at, but there it is.
It's been a while since I've posted on Flickr. The lack of a functioning darkroom following a house move meant that film photography has taken a back seat for a while.
But back in September 2019, I bought this from a friend's uncle. It was, until the late 1970s, in daily use at the Department of Geology, University of Cambridge (now Earth Sciences), as a studio camera.
It dates from circa 1901 and is an original Louis Gandolfi half-plate model. New bellows had been fitted by the previous owner but no other repair or restoration had been done.
The lens is the original Ross Xpres 6 inch f4.5, minimum aperture f32. There is no shutter.
I undertook basic cleaning and restoration of the brass and woodwork during lockdown, including three original double-sided Gandolfi plate holders with reducing inserts for quarter plate (3¼ x4 ¼ inch) and sixth plate (2½ x 3½ inches).
It inspired me to get a darkroom operational again so that I could produce some new images with this classic camera.
I'll be adding the results here.
