one of the first five 4x5 images i have shot. A big change from small or medium format. Still have to sort out some technical issues (light leaks from improperly loaded film, and i can't decide wether it is worth it to get a polaroid back...
This image has a mysterious line of greater exposure across the top 1/4. I have no idea what caused this.

4x5 View camera, 180mm, Ilford FP4
I took these over spring break on a Calumet 4x5 view camera, and decided they weren't worth sharing (my fault). But I've changed my mind, so here they are. Shot on TMAX 100 ISO film.
This was shot at an old pioneer cemetery. The depth in the scene with the foreground tree, tree in the middle and the headstone in the background, posed a real challenge due to the high dynamic range of the scene.
I took a meter reading at the base of the foreground tree as I really wanted to retain the detail in this tree.To manage the highlights in the background, I reduced my development time.
Looks like this film holder may have a bit of a light leak, will have to test it again.

St Mary's Cemetery began with the first burial in 1856.
St Mary's Cemetery is associated with the area's earliest pioneers. The land was donated by George K. Chisholm, the first mayor of the Town of Oakville. The cemetery contains many prominent Chisholm family members, the most prominent of which is Colonel William Chisholm, the founder of Oakville.
I finally got around to doing some 8x10 proofs yesterday. This one was hard to print. The negative was very dark. I think made a mistake in exposure. The print took 2 minutes under the enlarger. I split graded it. 1 minute at grade 3, and 1 minute white light. Still, I would like to burn in the top right corner a bit. Or... Maybe not.
Camera: Kodak Commercial Studio 8x10.

The other day I had a young girl in my office and she was looking at a 35mm slide that was sitting on my scanner. She asked me how I made the small image inside the cardboard frame...I looked at her and realized, that with digital, she had never seen slide film. I decided to go out and shoot a 4x5, before I forget how to do it.

I love trains. Someday, I hope to take a good picture of one.
My parents were in town from Pennsylvania, and we took a trip to the Oregon Coast. We passed this train on the way and decided to park the Volvo and get out for a stretch. I snapped a couple pictures. I was new to large format photography, and didn't have a clue how to keep all of the dust off on the film while loading it into the holders. This negative is unprintable in the darkroom, but I was able to clean it up for Flickr.
Camera: Linhof Technica
Lens: 135mm Linhof (Schneider)
Film: Maco 820 Infrared developed in PMK Pyro.
The data sheet on Maco IR said that a 25 red filter could be used with this film to get the signature infrared look, but, as you can see, this looks like conventional film.

Now this is a first:
- my first large format shot ever
- my first shot on black and white film
- my first time developing film myself
I am so happy that this turned out this well. Clearly I need to improve my handling of the film - I had to do quite a bit of dust removal on many of the shots in PS - this one was surprisingly intact.
I am very happy that I spent the cash and time on acquiring the equipment and learning how to do this. I think I have just fallen in love with film and large format. Not going to give up digital, but definitely going to shoot film on the side.

In addition to the standard view camera lenses I have for the Linhof, the 90, 135, and 210mm lenses, thanks to the used lens board box at my local camera store I was able to mount these two shutters that have been sitting in the closet for far too long.
The empty vintage Kodak Kodet shutter on the left will have a brass pinhole installed in it. The 10.5cm f:4.5 Kodak Anastigmat on the right was removed from an old Kodak folding camera years ago. I was thinking it might make an interesting lens to use with the 6x6 and 6x9 roll film backs.

Lots of detail here ... too much in my opinion. I was hoping to get some separation between the bush in the foreground and the tree and foliage in the background. Clearly, I did not achieve this as the image looks too two-dimensional.
I also used an orange filter to darken the blue sky and to get a little more contrast in the image which was shot on a very bright sunny day, there was a huge dynamic range from shadows to highlights in this scene.

Mine will be the 4th book they have produced.
