ShenHao 5x7, Ilex Caltar 365mm, 1/50@F6.3, Fomapan 100, ID11
The sharpness was set to the face only, and f6,3 does not seem to be enough, still I like it.

the orange color bleed may be the result of non flat film capture or exceeding the DR of the film.
There was a time in my 20's when I cared for nothing but pure photography, warm darkrooms and cigarettes. Women and alcohol seldom interupted those pure thoughts. Art came first, and I was a very studious naive bachelor right up until I was knocked on the head by love.
Heres an image with one of the many cameras I owned. I was shooting 8x10inch , 6x9cm , 6x7cm, 6x6cm and sometimes 35mm back then. Working in a camera store by day meant I owned a large number of camera's for short periods of time trying them out . Everything was freely available working for one of the country's largest second hand and new dealers with thousands of square feet of toys to play with.
Seneca Improved View 5x7, Osaka Wide Field 120mm f/6.3 + CPL, Old Workhorse Collodion, Alumitype
f/16, 30 seconds
The polarizer seems to have worked in darkening the sky a bit but that in turn brought out the appearance of the collodion ridges that had set from my slightly thick mix.
Film: Portra 400 4x5
Portrait of friend that stopped by.
I had to severely crop this image because the bottom half of the negative was blocked by bellow sag. The bellows in the camera sagged to the point where they blocked some of the light hitting the negative. It's happened a couple of times and it's annoying.
I shot some on b&w film as well. But those are in the fridge waiting to be developed.
Strobist: SB910 with small soft box camera right. SB700 as a kicker camera left. Trigger: Pocket Wizards in TTL mode.
There is no shutter on this camera. Exposures are made by removing the lens cap and replacing it after the required time has passed.
For this picture, in a convex mirror, it did not matter that I was unavoidably in shot for the brief moments required to remove and replace the cap for the 2 minute exposure. My presence was not recorded as I waited out of view to replace the lens cap.

Got to invite lovely friend Hannah to Jay Javier's studio after a few non-handsome dudes have been dicking around with the 5x7 view camera. Shot this one from the session myself, and blame the soft focus effect to this being my first ever shot in large format. Lit with studio lights, shot through an Industar-51 210mm lens on Ilford Photographic Paper.
