My first 8x10 exposure

          A new learning curve, and from what I have been told this new camera will keep me challenged for quite some time.  The new camera is an 8x10 field camera.  Just learning how to transport it will be a challenge.  Never mind the developing, and later contact printing with platinum.

          I have had fun so far.  Only taken the camera out twice so far.  The first negative is what I am posting here today.  Had some chemistry problems, as well as vignetting of the actual negative from too much correction.  I do plan on re-doing this exposure in the next week or two.

          There is a strong surreal quality to photographing in a burn area.  Most definitely worth further exploration.

          I will post the two other images I have done so far, as soon as I develop them.
