How do you set the grad with a rangefinder? Just guesstimate?

Yes, I just put it half way down pretty much all the time and it has worked out for me. I use soft grads only and no hard ones.

Excellent. Lots to look at!

Thanks. I find that the print has more depth and a better "look" to it than the screen image but I may be imagining things.

You probably aren't.

Nice composition. I have the same set up and would like to add the 65mm LA lens someday. It sure is a capable landscape camera system, but takes a commitment to tote around.

Thanks,
65mm LA is the perfect lens, much better then 50 mm. But I've sold RZ fnd bought Bronica GS1 it's smaller and lighter, lenses 65/4 ,100/3,5, 150/4, 200/4.5 are very sharp and well made.

@GLS These are both really nice. My brain has stuck in the rut of going back and forth and trying to decide which tones (film) I find more pleasing. I'm leaning towards the Provia image.

I'm viewing these on a very modest LG monitor btw.

Thanks. For colour work I tend to prefer slides too, if the scene contrast permits. The above was pushing that boundary.

The Ladybower scene was also on the edge, but I did in fact expose two sheets of Velvia 50 for it. Afterwards I realised I'd forgotten to compensate for the CPL, so those shots were 1 stop underexposed and of course unusable as a result. I had more Velvia with me but didn't want to throw good money after bad, so settled with the Ektar backup.

Also, FYI I have updated the frame for the Ladybower scene on Flickr with improved colour correction (the original still had a slight green-cyan cast) so best to look at it there. Same for the Velvia image above that (too blue). I would update the embedded old versions here, but the forum software won't allow editing of posts past a certain age. Eventually the embedded cached images will fail to load I expect.

Nice. I've stood in that exact same spot, and love that place. But man, I've never seen the lake level that low! There's usually water between those two formations, but in this view they are totally bridged. What year was that taken in?

Very pleasant tonality, but suddenly too dull and too dark skies.

Thanks Greg, your Mountain compositions are excellent.

2 images with opposing views, same location from back in August. Not my preferred medium (digital, sony a6000) but you use the tools you have with you. I plan to go back in the next week for some proper fall colors. Located on the Cumberland Plateau between Crossville and Knoxville.
