Some rolls never seem to find an end.... Real nice.. is the 010? a prewar Retina? I guess not as the Ektar IIRC was a "lumenized" postwar lens?  Excellent pics!!

Thanks Chuck.  Yep, it's a post-war Retina 1 with the coated ("lumenized") USA Ektar lens.  The date code on the lens is 1946 (EO).

It was a sunny but windy afternoon at the Coyote Point marina along the San Francisco Bay. My focusing dark cloth almost got blown over into the marsh. Camera was a Chamonix F1 4x5 field camera with Schneider Symmar 135mm f/5.6 convertible, film was Ilford HP5+, with an orange filter. Adox FX-39 II 1+9.

Beautiful large format quality, Bruce. Images such as these increase my longing to return to 4x5 format...

Thank you Rick. In addition to the quality, I really enjoy the methodical and even therapeutic pace of making one sheet of film at a time.
