When I see Todd post a video, I wait until I can focus 100% on it ... never disappointed. Wonderful work by Mr. Speer wish I could have enjoyed them in person.

Just love the image of the old church. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Todd, Trev from Australia again. Great video, magnificent photographs, and a great philosophy regarding photographing any site. Paraphrasing, "photograph as you found it, leave it as you found it". I will always have a deep passion for large format black and white, but Steve Speers explanation of framing and presenting took it to another level. Thanks to both

Thanks, we have to act responsible when we are out taking photos. Steve is a class act.

I still print some of my photographs with my Epson 3880. No one else sees them but me, but I feel that a printed photo has some qualities that ca never be appreciated on a screen.

Yea I don’t think it works for everything but for this is was nice.

Really enjoyed this video, Mr. Korol. Didn't't know what to expect but was hoping to hear some emphasis on the framing as well as the photography. I was not disappointed. Framing for a show is so expensive and time consuming and such a major part of the show that it can't be passed over lightly. It takes a bit of thought and time deciding on format size and aspect ratio, matt size and type, etc. You did a magnificent presentation. I shot 4x5 b&w for many years and loved the process. I got used to living in the darkroom like a mushroom, but I never did a show of my 4x5 work. I resisted digital right up to the end but when it got to the point where I no longer had a darkroom and couldn't conveniently buy film I went to digital. Now I would not willingly go back to film. I just finished a successful show of 60 of my wild bird pictures that I could never have done with film and I'm still getting orders for them. I'm 80 years old now and bought my first camera in 1961and I still get excited when I see a good image coming together.

That sounds wonderful, would have loved to see that show. Although I still love film, I do hope people understand that for me it's all about the final image that is displayed, not how it was taken. That is great you are still out there taking photos!! I sure hope I am.

I am thoroughly impressed AND inspired after seeing these images. Thank you so much for sharing! I, too, began my photographic career in the early 1970's, buying my first Hasselblad in 1972. Now, with the X1D, and expecting a new X2D to be delivered anytime soon, I'm looking forward to displaying new large prints in this manner. I can only print up to 24" wide, so not quite as big, but still big enough. A couple of questions, when you've got the time - 1. Steve states these are 30x40". Is that the "image" size, or the outside matted size? 2. Does Steve use glass or acrylic? Thanks again for this video. I have enjoyed following your You Tube videos. I love the "openness" you show of Alberta, and especially the remnants of years gone by. Just the opposite of my home in Tennessee - all greenery & trees. Lots water falls and more trees! The Appalachian mountains are a different "breed" of mountain, compared to the Rockies. Trees cover the hills completely, with the tallest mountains being a bit over 6000', while humans have inhabited these "hills" since day one. Lots of culture!

No digital camera today can copy that large format look. The part your missing is part of the client or viewer connection maybe cause it has that film, large format look, digital cant produce that look.
