w/nw -A Favorite Medium Format Picture from 2011

[Lou_Meluso]

<p>Happy New Year to All! Well another year gone by. Looking back, post a favorite medium format picture from this past year. Tell us a bit about it and the gear you used.</p>

<p>This swamp scene was taken in the early morning in Clearwater, Florida near the botanical gardens. I had to be mindful of the large alligators that patrol these waters.</p>

<p>Mamiya Super 23 (6x9), Mamiya-Sekor 100mm f/2.8, Fuji Pro S 160 </p><div></div>

I have 30 more films to develop so maybe a better one will be there :)</p>

<p>Here' s ashot with a recently acquired Fujica GL 690 (3.5/100mm, Kodak TMY in Diafine).<br>

It's a rather boring picture, but somehow I feel like being hypnotized if looking at it :-)</p><div></div>

<p>Not a landscape, really, as the focus is on the meditating man, overlooking Sedona AZ. A great spot for meditation... the photo helps bring me back to the feel of that place and moment as a focus for my own thoughts.<br>

Last June with 70mm Summarit on S2.</p><div></div>

<p>This is something I did on my last roll of Neopan 400 / 120 in reversal.</p>

Pentax 645n, 75mm f/2.8 FA, Portra 400, and an insatiable desire for bugs.</p>

<p>Storm in eastern Washington, the photo that first showed me the incredible dynamic range of digital medium format. Hasselblad H4D-40 and 35-90mm zoom.</p><div></div>

<p>An aerial shot taken in Iceland, cropped to 6x12. Certainly the most fun that I have had with a camera this year.</p><div></div>

<p>I just got into medium format this year when I finally bought Mamiya 645 Pro. I think I have way too high threshold to actually shoot with it, over thinking each shot - is the shot worth it or not. And I usually end up thinking that the shot is not worth it. This is a problem I need to overcome this year, and just to start having fun with it.<br>

This one is from my first test roll, shot with Mamiya 645 Pro, 150mm f/3.5 N & Fuji Pro 160 NS. (scanned from a print, no access to MF neg scanner yet...)</p>

<p><strong>Playtime is over</strong></p>

<p>Pentax 67II, SMC Pentax 67 45 mm. Velvia 100F. Two exposures blended in PS: one at f/4, 45 minutes focused at infinity, about an hour after sunset; second for the foreground, 3 minutes at f/8 focused at 3 m, multiple flashes. This is the only image I made using medium format in 2011. I enjoyed this shooting occasion very much.</p><div></div>

<p>I could pick from some decent landscapes, or some ok astrophotos, or loads of shots of my two daughters, but for a change I'm going with one of their friends from a few doors down the road. I just asked her to smile for a moment while they were all playing together outside.<br>

Mamiya 645AFD, Kodak DCS Proback 645M, ISO 100, 1/250 sec, and the lens was the manual focus Mamiya 80/1.9 at either f1.9 or f2.8. (DOF is so thin that when viewed at full resolution, her left eye is in noticeably sharper focus than her right!)</p><div></div>
