Gaia and I went to Newport in September. I got out the 4x5, and used up some T-Max 400. It was way out of date, so it needed to happen.
I like the way this one turned out, although, my scanner has trouble with thinner negatives.

I went to Astoria, Oregon shortly after moving back to the Portland area this past summer. I dragged a bunch of film cameras along, and managed to get them out and use them. This is a picture I wanted to take another crack at since my first LF negatives of the Astoria-Megler Bridge had, shall we say, issues. This one is much better.

'Roid Week (Polaroid Week) Day 5
I made this shot on the same morning as the "Emperor Peak" shot, the fog in the mountains seem to be flowing out in between the peaks in the distance almost like an avalanche. What drew me to this scene is the serenity of the village in the morning with the eternal background which looks almost like those Chinese watercolour paintings. Both the contrast between human elements and nature, and the contrast between the sharp foreground and soft ethereal background is what makes this image interesting for me personally.
The Chamonix Alpinist X was used for this shot, with the Fujinon C 600mm f/11.5 lens at f/45 and 2 sec exposure. The film used was Fomapan 100 which was then developed in ADOX Rodinal at 1+50 dilution and scanned on an Epson V850 flatbed with Silverfast.

Fuji Neopan Acros 100, 4" x 5", 80 iso, N + 1/2 development in Rodinal developer, 1:50, 11:00minutes, 24C. Taken July 2017. Ebony SV45TU. Fujinon-A 240mm.
I used a six stop neutral density filter, and a #25 red filter to both increase contrast, and allow for a long exposure. Exposure time was 1 minute at F20.0. My goal was to show some motion in the foreground grasses and the sky while keeping the house itself sharp. I think it worked...? This old house is near Andrew, Alberta in Lamont County.

On the end of day 2 of my Zion fall color trip, I was exploring unnamed slot canyons searching for compositions when I came across this little scene. A young cottonwood sapling adorned in the brilliant yellow of peak fall color leans in towards a bright red maple sapling, which in turn leans in towards the cottonwood from a shelf above. This is an unusual scene, to see deciduous trees in fall color living in a desert slot canyon, and I think the juxtaposition of these different elements makes for a very beautiful combination.

The appliance and video store was an area institution that moved out about 15 years ago for a mall in the surrounding suburban area.
The area has gone through several attempts over the years at re-gentrification. Some more successful than others. However the neighborhood still has a split personality.

Happy Birthday Ansel Adams! With Feb 20 being Ansel's birthday, I thought posting a large format, black and white image would be appropriate.
A Texas windmill on a socially distanced day drive west of Fort Worth last summer.

This waterfall was located inside a privately run park somewhere down a very badly kept dirt road winding into the mountains just outside the national park. During the holidays the park was basically left unattended and I was the only visitor there that day. Too bad that the footpaths were very narrow and my options for compositions were rather limited. I am however, very happy with how the Fomapan 100 handled the dynamic range in this shot, I was looking at least at a 7-stop range if not more and I'm pretty happy with how the exposure came out.
The shot was made using the Schneider Super-Symmar XL 150mm f/5.6 with Iva center filter. The film used was Foampan 100, home developed in ADOX Rodinal 1+25 dilution then scanned on an Epson V850 flatbed.

Lyle, Washington is located in the eastern Columbia Gorge, directly across from Rowena Crest. The Columbia River is fairly wide there, and it takes one hell of a lens to do this. I used one hell of a camera too. It's an Eastman Kodak Commercial 8x10 view camera that is capable of a yard of bellows extension.
I have had some trouble with the film. I'm not sure why it was happening, but this film, and a pack of HP5 had some diffuse lines of higher density running through it. I have to clean them up in Photoshop. They are about 3/4" wide, and there is sometimes smaller lines. You can see them in the water at the bottom, and in the sky at the top. I cleaned them up as best as I could. I keep the film in the freezer until I am ready to load it, but I am wondering if something happened in the freezer. I am going to try some different film from the freezer soon, but what is concerning is that I have about 5 boxes of Efke film, which is no longer available, in the freezer. If all of the film that was in the freezer at about the same time period was ruined like this, that would really suck.

1897 Ak-sar-ben Camera - Repromaster 210mm - f/45 - Fomapan 100 - 8x10 Film (5x10 Mask) - Legacy Pro L110 1+100 - Unaltered Negative Scan
IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE
Aquesta càmera tipus "tailboard" o "reisekamera" com en diuen en alemany, de format 13x18 cm, és d'un model força estandard i molt practic. Per això la vaig escollir. Però a sobre té la particularitat de conservar la plaqueta del fabricant i a sobre un objectiu a joc també amb el nom del fabricant. Això la fa especialment atractiva.
Aquesta reisekamera, doncs, fou fabricada i venguda per Konrad G. Seitz a Nuremberg, a finals del s. XIX o principis del XX. Per raons que detallaré, crec que data d'entorn el 1895. Encara fa més gracia que el negoci fotografic de la familia Seitz encara existeix avui en dia, encara al costat de la St. Lorenzkirche: Photo Seitz GmbH.
L'objectiu és força interesant i representatiu del seu moment. Tot ell lacat en negre i amb detalls cromats, s'allunya ja de la estètica de llauto que va dominar els objectius fotografics del s. XIX. Tot i portar el mateix nom del fabricant i venedor de la càmera, dubto molt que també fos fabricat a Nuremberg. El text del objectiu, parcialment en lletra gòtica, diu:
"Konrad G. Seitz, Nürnberg,
Universal Aplanat, Extra Rapid, 16981".
La clau aquí, es que si busqueu "Universal Aplanat Extra Rapid", veureu que hi ha molts objectius identics, amb el mateix lacat negre i text similar PERO amb noms i ciutats diferents. La majoria d'Alemania i Austria, però també de França i Catalunya i tot. De fet, vaig trobar un article sobre dos objectius com aquest però indicant dues botigues de Barcelona. Gracies a aquests noms podien saber que es tractava de objectius fabricats just a finals del s. XIX (quan estan documentats aquells negocis barcelonins). Per això crec que aquest objectiu data del entorn del 1895. Tant pel nº de serie anterior als mencionats objectius com per tenir diafragma amb "stops" senzillament numerats 1-2-3-4 etc, i no f8-f11-f16-f22...
No sé on es fabricaren aquests Universal Aplanats, però tot apunta a Alemania, tant per la distribució com per l'us de lletra gòtica en el text. Deurien ser fets per encarrec d'aquells que els venien amb el seu nom inscrit, i obviament això sembla indicar optiques més aviat barates. Si un objectiu Zeiss, Vöigtlander o Dallmeyer, calia pagar més.
Aquesta càmera la vaig comprar perque anava en conjunt amb 3 portaplaques de tipus "bookform", perfectament utilitzables per a fer plaques de col·lodió. I funciona molt bé!

==============================================
This large format tailboard camera or "reisekamera" as they say in German, format 13x18 cm, is a fairly standard early XX Century model and very practical, as in folding position the ground glass is protected. That’s why I chose her. But on top of that it has the particularity of keeping the manufacturer's plate and even a matching lens also with the manufacturer's name. This makes her especially attractive.
This reisekamera, therefore, was manufactured and sold by Konrad G. Seitz in Nuremberg, at the end of the XIX or early XX Centuries. For reasons I will detail, I think it dates back to c.1895. It is even more interesting to know that the photographic business of the Seitz family still exists today, next to the St. Lorenzkirche, in Nuremberg: it's Photo Seitz GmbH, in Pfannenschmiedsgasse.
The lens is quite interesting and representative of his time. All lacquered in black and with chrome details, it is already moving away from the brass aesthetic that dominated the photographic lenses of the XIX Century. Despite bearing the same name as the camera manufacturer and seller, I highly doubt it was also made in Nuremberg. The text of the objective, partially in gothic letter, says:
"Konrad G. Seitz, Nürnberg,
Universal Aplanat, Extra Rapid, 16981 ".
The key here, is that if you search for "Universal Aplanat Extra Rapid", you will see that there are many identical lenses, with the same black lacquer and similarly styled text BUT with different names and cities. Some also have Waterhouse stops, others, diaphragms. Most indicate cities of Germany and Austria, but also France and even Barcelona, in Catalonia. In fact, I found an article (in Catalan) about two lenses like this but named after two retailers in Barcelona, long gone ("A. Busquets y Duran", and "Vda. de F. Rus"). Thanks to these names they could know that these were lenses manufactured just at the end of the s. XIX (when those Barcelona businesses are documented). That is why I think this lens dates from around 1895, just a few years before the others. Both for the serial number lower than those lenses and for having a diaphragm with "stops" simply numbered 1-2-3-4 etc, and not f8-f11-f16-f22. ..
I don't know where these lacquered Universal Aplanats were made, but everything points to Germany, both for the distribution and the use of Gothic lettering in the text. They probably were made by order by those who sold them with their name inscribed on them, and obviously this seems to indicate rather cheap optics.
I bought this camera because it came with 3 "bookform" type plate holders, perfectly usable for making collodion plates. And it works great!
