Tachihara 4x5 "Fiel" Camera
Schneider 210mm 1:5.6 convertible
1 sec @ F5.6
Developed with HC-110 dil'n 1:63 for 10' 15" at 20 C

Testing different development times with 1:63 dilution. Didn't see much difference between 12 mins and 10:15. Why do my images come out much darker on Flickr??

Lesson 2...Make sure that the negative holder is completely inserted in the camera back, or you will get light leaks!!

Tachihara 4x5, Cherrywood
Schneider 210mm convertible
10th sec @ F5.6

My second color shot with the 4x5.
A little under-exposed. I accidentally triggered the shutter before the sun peaked out from behind the clouds. But, it still works okay for me.

Please forgive me for posting an image taken with a non-large format camera in the large format groups...but after all, it is a picture of a 4x5 camera.

Tachihara 4x5 Cherry Wood
Scheider 210mm 1:5.6 convertible
yellow filter
16" @ F45
slight tilt forward on back
spot/ dust remove, and seriously photoshop'd

Underexposed, but it still works for me.

UPDATE...I entered this photo in an open show. It didn't place, but it was good to get my work on display and in front of a judge.
