Great shot Phillipe! Black and white landscapes aren't something that would occur to me, but this one is fantastic. It looks like 6x17 must be really costly. I really like the framing and the use of light and dark.

Great shot Phillipe! Black and white landscapes aren't something that would occur to me, but this one is fantastic. It looks like 6x17 must be really costly. I really like the framing and the use of light and dark.

Thank you, Brainstormer, for your nice comment.

Well, yes it looks costly as there are only 4 shots on one 120 rolfilm, but not really...
This format (and very basic camera) forces you to work slowly and thoughtful, to think twice before you release the shutter, and compose carefully.
That's why I prefer to work handheld, so I can easily step around to compose the frame and recompose, and recompose and recompose, endlessly till it feels right, and thus I need less composing bracketing... So, less shooting = less film!

And if working handheld needs me to push the Tri-X film till 1000 ASA, nowadays this is not a real problem as there are some very good developers available like Kodak's X-Tol, and others.
1000 ASA (and sometimes 1600) because the Super Angulon 90mm needs to be closed till minimal F1:11, best till F1:22, to well cover the 17 cm long format, and handheld shooting at least t. 1/60 sec., it's a heavy camera without moving parts so 1/60 will do, sometimes.

I do realise that there must be better emulsions than Tri-X to push, but, to my very personal opinion, it's flexibility and tonality can't be equaled (the old AgfaPan 400 did but is sadly gone now).
Don't forget: good light metering and "reading the light" is fundamental too.

Also, a 17 cm long negative doesn't needs to be enlarge that much, for a print of about half a meter long, only 3x linear enlargement will suffice...

Salut,
Philippe

You have a better imagination than I do. I would have never seen this composition. Well done!
