Aero Ektar

Silver gelatin paper negative process. Vintage Ernmann 5 x 7 LF Camera. Kodak Aero Ektar, Expired Ilford glossy paper. I tried to make a quick lense hood for the Ektar but ended up creating a vignette. I unintentionally over exposed this also in the moring light. 3 seconds at f6.

This lense has come to life as if re-incarnated in contemporary times as a portrait lense on a Speed Graphic, that's where the cool seems to be. I realised that my use here is maybe back to some kind of close to its intended purpose..........not landscapes.....but the whole aerial photography thing, (I know this image is far from aerial). I like what it does. I really do.
