During our Eastern Sierra autumn color trip, I woke up early one morning to head up to this chilly ridge line overlooking the Minarets in California's Eastern Sierra in time for sunrise and was treated to this incredible show of light, texture. and color! The view you see here looks out across Devil's Postpile National Monument and into the high Sierra at the Minarets.
This is one of the first large format images from my Intrepid 4x5 view camera and represents a major leap in quality for my work. The image you see here is a tiny web version of a 100-megapixel scan from a 4x5" transparency, and that was only to save space and time! I can scan to around 300 MP myself, or have it drum scanned at a lab to around 500 MP. The aesthetic qualities and beautiful fine grain structure of the film give the images a look and a quality level that really shines in large prints.

Also trying to learn development by inspection.

These were the most extreme weather conditions I used my 4x5 in. My son and I started hiking up to the Rainbow Falls, expecting no more than a few drops of rain, but once we climbed high enough, light rain turned into snow. A lot of snow, yet still melting when touching the ground. We reached a bridge over the mountains stream and here decided to turn back. But before that, I quickly unpacked my camera and set up this composition.
At one second of exposure, I expected the falling snow to completely disappear. Instead, it left a lot of faint, long streaks across the image, predominantly visible in shadow areas. No complaints though, I like it that way.

the old rum factory - the world could end and those girders would remain standing - how curious it is that we can build things that last forever and yet the one thing without which we cannot live is being destroyed at a rate that would suggest infinite reserves
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.
Along the coast of California's Highway One there are many, many places to pull off and explore the rocks, wonder about the sea, watch for whales, seals, huge brown pelicans, and the furtive crabs. Here, the sea and rocks contend over long ages, though these are obviously rather new to the game.
One of my favorite lines from any song is when the Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz sings, "Oh I, can tell you why, the ocean's near the shore..."
May you too, find your mind's eye view of mother ocean...
as an example, as I was taking this, I met another lad, scrambling around on the rocks, looking... Chris Axe apparently saw this scene in color... :)
I have got a Leitz medium format projector on a flemarket with this monster of a lens on it. It should cover up until 5x7. I have afapted it to a custom made Linhof size board. It is challanging to shoot with it as it has no iris nor shutter. But it is unique for sure. I will share some results with it.
