Desertification.
and a color "enhanced" ultra sound. this shows how loud an ultra sound is to a fetus.

Great sunset picture, foot! I like the colors, what camera were you using?

Cool, did you ever pinch your fingers in the clapper board?

404,
Both photos were made with a wista dx 4x5 view camera and the sunset was with a 210 lens the desert was with a 135. Note the shadows from the cactus, vs. the sunset. Bruce, Nah, I was too busy burning them on the lights, I was actually a gaffer. They just let me play with the clappers if I behaved during the takes

It seems funny to me that you would go to the considerable trouble of using a large format view camera and then stitch together two photos that don't really match. What else have you got from the Wista that's straight?

Not considerable trouble at all, about 15 minutes. It was done as a joke for a friend who is also a photographer. I kept the jpeg and figured I'd post it. It probably took longer to upload than to stitch. These were from about fifteen years ago. Since then I've run at least 10,000 sheets of film through the camera. BTW, the camera is built like a tank. It still looks brand new. Not all of the 10,000 sheets are personal work. more than half are probably work work. What would you like to see? how about:

Stream long exposures, nice job. What kind of pro work do you do with the large format ? Just landscapes et al or studio stuff as well, I've seen some incredible LARGE format protrait shots. Detail is incredible.
I like working with medium format, I've never really had the patience for large format.

Cool! Well, 15 minutes is more considerable than a lot of people would put into a landscape. I'd like to try large format some time, but haven't gotten my hands on a camera yet. (The closest I own is a YashicaMat 124G TLR). I'm headed into photojournalism, so I've been really pleased to see the work that David Burnett has been doing with a Speed Graphic and other "obsolete" tools. It breaks my heart that I'll soon spend $5000 on a digital camera that will be as good as a paperweight in 50 years, while a wood-and-brass beauty like yours is still going strong.

MkII is damn nice but a 20D will probably do the job in most situations, if you were heading to Iraq however...More useful two have two 20Ds than a single MkII in a lot of situations as well. Pro DSLRs have to be the biggest cash cow for camera makers in decades, hell digital backs for MF stuff easily head into 30k+.

MAT124G is an awesome camera. I once worked at a camera shop and did a side by side comparison with a hasselblad and the images were indistinguishable from one another. I bought the Yashica Mat. Digital paperweight in 50 years? Nahh, try 50 weeks! I just bought my first digital camera: a C.Pix for the princely sum of $19.95. It wouldn't weigh down a sheet of rice paper! Twenty bucks is all I'm ready to part with at this point. It does have a cmos sensor... I've been crazy busy, but will post some $20. digi images soon and I promised to p'shop a mullet on some other pic. Gotta go now.
