Shot for an accessories brochure for BMW on a 10x8 camera decades before Photoshop became ubiquitous. It is made up of three elements: the roller skate and wheels were shot in one studio on one transparency. The car was then shot on another transparency with exactly the same tilt/shift to give it the same perspective. These two shots, and an Australian sunset shot were combined by a team of genius retouchers working for several days. Of course, photography was affected by the computer age, but Photoshop completely annihilated the retouching industry worlwide. I remember the retouching invoice for this one shot was £1200, or several month's wages.

My pocket4x5inch pinhole camera, almost finished, just needs a shutter. For the moment as can be seen I'm using a low fi paper shutter...
-------------------------------------------------
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 :
Paper negative shot taken to test out a 'new' camera. The very crude framing is due to trying to cut the enlarging paper to size in the dark with a pair of scissors. Will need to make a template for next time.
