Thanks very much for your kind words!
I will certainly miss your 6x17 but am quite sure you will have some other good stuffs to show us :)
Congrats for the IQ180! I can guarantee you will love it. It is a remarkable back.

Pramote
thanks.

No need to worry, i have quite the backlog of scanned 617's that go back to 2011. I also fully intend on producing 617's with the iq180 as i think i "see" best in panos. But i also want to shoot in different formats. The 180 offers that flexibility.

Anyway I went for a 4 day trip with it last weekend and have been shooting it almost every day. The files are simply amazing. they are so clean. Here's a shot from yesterday's sunrise.

This was two shots focus stacked in helicon focus at f16 and f22 i believe, f16 for infinity and f22 for the up close flowers.. To be quite honest i dont see diffraction at f16 or f22. The file are so much cleaner than my 3200ppi scans(obvious i know) that i believe you can print these files just as big if not bigger than those scans.

I must admit that I quite often feels like a rather odd duck in the phothograpic pond.
Especially when the discussion goes to which photographer is your biggest source of inspiration.
And I have to admit that I am incapable to name one photographer that inspires me and the way I work :shocked:
I watch a lot of photos, all the time. Here and all over the place. And of course individual photos can inspire me.
But not as a "style".

My base of inspiration is art, water color and oil. Both for landscape and portrait. And statues of different kind.
To walk around a 3D-object and see the light play on the structure, that is for me inspiration to "style".

I have slowly began to look at how to transfer the old masters to a new socio-cultural and structural context.
And it still feels a bit confusing, but that is my most creative state, one that I prefers to a state of certainty.
If I am secure, then nothing new happens.

So I am now slowly putting together my favorite tools agin for this little project.
And it is almost a suicidal project, but I like those projects best :chug:

The photo below is in many ways a "rip of" that not includes any thing new.
It is from a series I made to study light, and it confirmed for me that my basic idea would work.
Now I maybe will have some time this summer to dig deeper in this, so we will see...

This is really great - believe the journey will almost be as enjoyable as the arrival (although the feeling of arrival will keep changing). The destination will be a real fantastic place inhabited by images.
Go Explore Enjoy you have great tools and imagination.

Extremely cool place. The trail that goes behind the falls is fantastic but I took no pics as the light was not good when I hiked it.

Rained on us all night but it was worth it the next morning.

Pentax 645D, 600mm + 1.4x with crop. I see Mark Rothko paintings in the scenes Lake Erie presents; have I translated those to a photograph? Not really, but it's fun to try..
