A walk by the river bank
« on: January 01, 2014, 12:10:40 PM »
We went for a short walk at the river Rhine two days ago. It was a bit muddy, but otherwise beautiful weather. As I am trying to get more comfortable with the large format, I took the Chamonix and 3 slide holders. I still have trouble composing the shots and knowing what camera movements to use to achieve what I want, but I am slowly getting better. I also wanted to try out the brass lens (Panorthoscopique) a bought recently, but there was too much light to get long enough exposures. I think I have to put an ND filter on the lense to use it. The pictures were mostly taken with a Schneider Kreuznach Symmar 210mm, one was taken with the 90mm Super Angulon.

I find the large format quite adictive and am already thinking about taking it on the next vacation.

In the last photo there is a flock of at least 30 wild geese sitting on the ground in front of the trees. It is hard to make them out in the small image size.

Thanks for looking!
