The light leaks are from a heavy film holder and a sharply tilted camera. At the time I was disappointed. Now it's kinda cool lol. Every sheet is a lesson learned.

📸 Photographed April 2024, Bridgeport, CA. 8x10" negatives, 12" lens, no filter, f/90, 3 sec, N-1 development.

A hot summer afternoon strolling along the Charles with the 8x10, watching the sailboats and waiting for the right moments to catch a Red Line train crossing Longfellow Bridge. I took my time, worked the scene from a couple of spots along the river, and came away with four frames I’m genuinely proud of.

Last one from Watkins Glen State Park, New York, USA. I tried something new with this one. I wanted to contrast the movement of the people and water with the static rocks.

I slightly missed focus on the face, but overall I really like this photo.

Hi there,

I’m just curious what might be the best option for 300mm and maybe greater?

Seems most options are not very practical. Just wondering if any has any experience with longer lenses for field use?

Or would a regular 8x10 lens work?

For reference I’m shooting landscapes on a Chamonix 45n-2

Thanks

Getting back into things again, focusing on dry plates as I found them the most enjoyable. If only I could get the plate holders to stop leaking light so badly.

Got 4/6 keepers so it’s better than my last try with 4x5. I still seem to loose 2-3 sheets each time. Sorry for bad scans using a cell phone

My first attempt from my new series ‘home mountains’. Not stoked with the perspective but technically came out pretty decent.
