From Sunday's Live Draw event. Was doing instant oilgraph portraits and these were the negs that came from them. I mounted and painted the polaroids and either sold them outright or put them out for auction.
Most of these were portraits of the patrons at the event.
Haven't shot 4x5 in years. It's like shooting with a cow, but I began to get my stride soon. I wasn't going to add any of these actually since it's not my usual thing and a bit more static that I am used to, but I figured why not.

Now, when you're shooting slide film, you've got to expose for the highlights and...
Well. Sod that. Expose for the beautiful colours in the sky and see what happens. I'd never have got the land and the water in anyway.
Continuing with my large format experience, taking my expired Arista Ultra 100 8x10 film on a sunny but windy day, using the super wide (for the format) Nikkor. Theme again was the mountains and water, but no stillness for the latter given the wind. Film is, unfortunately, failing a bit, with mottling no doubt due to age, but moved past it. This time, used Rodinal alone at 1+100, and found the accutance as to be expected as sharp, with contrast a bit more (!) than I expected. Without a filter nice cloud imaging. My tripod sank a couple of times in the sand requiring me to re-set up the shot, and the geese weren't too happy with me with one trying to chase me away. Such is the high excitement and risk of LF image acquisition! Thanks to the flickerans who contine to inspire all of us!
Another early AM shooting session, experimenting with Arista Ultra 100 shot at box speed. Fairly wide light capture here with somewhat harsh shadows and cloudless sky. This combination doesn't quite pull out the details in the shadows as much as I'd like, despite some very favorable comments about this film with D76. Will likely go back to Xtol in the next round.

Another shot taken on Cayman's Mastic Trail, the largest contiguous area of untouched, old-growth forest in Grand Cayman - an area where the woodland has been evolving undisturbed for the last two million years. It houses all manner of wildlife - exotic native birds, hermit crabs, frogs, snakes and one or two mosquitoes. This day, there were parts of the trail were littered with fallen fruit from wild mango trees.
