One thing I appreciate about large format cameras, is the ability to manipulate the geometry of the projected image on the ground glass. Thought I'd have a little fun with this one.
good thing it's got that leash to hold it up.
It's going to be another nice print, I think. I suspect there might be a "straight" version from the other side of the holder...
@NedL I was thinking the same thing about the "leash". I don't think I would like it as much if it wasn't there! Only made one exposure, so I'm stuck with this one! @Eric Rose it does feel like that when looking at the photo, but surprisingly calm for the open prairie at that time of day. I was pretty lucky during my entire road trip...including Alberta. There were times where I it was just too much for the big camera.
When I saw the thumb, I didn't notice the slant & just thought it was going to be another wonderful shot. It certainly *is* wonderful, but didn't expect the welcome mirth.
Well done - makes it very interesting. I agree with NedL, you probably also have a straight one. I like that it's leaning to the right, and yes, it does have a 'leash' to keep it from leaning too far.
@HiHoSilver Sometimes adjusting movements for corrections, isn't "correct". For the architectural photography, I suppose this rendition would be unacceptable.... Cheers! @awty Yes, I did use a red filter. Wratten #25... @bsdunek Nope. This is the only one I have. Homage to my "only got 2, 8x10 holder" days.
