This is a very nice video, Todd. Kudos to the videographer. Of course, your photography is outstanding and makes watching the video worthwhile. I love the west coast of Vancouver Island. Over the years (30+) I have photographed the Ucluelet/Tofino area with my 4x5 camera, sometimes with an 8x10 and more recently with a digital camera. It's truly a magical place to be and create art in whichever form that may be.

Great stuff. Really enjoy your videos and process. Did a double-take when I saw the reciprocity app, because I use that one myself! Also, I shoot with a Blad myself, 500cm.

A few questions, Todd, if you don't mind: how do you develop 5x7? Do you use trays or is there a tank somewhere? Also, why do you use f45 and above? Is there extra sharpness at that f stop? Larger DOF? Not sure what your reasoning was. I do a fair amount of 4x5 using Nikkor lenses add usually don't use such high f-stops and wondered why you would only use these values. TIA

I develop my film in Jobo expert tanks using constant agitation, I am actually doing a video right now of the process I use, it will be out in a week or so, stay tuned. I use F/45 and sometimes F/64 to get the most depth of field I can get, I want everything in the photograph is sharp, so on a big print the viewer can see every little detail.

what a landscape! just put in a guy with an axe and you have larry fink's Opening The Sky all over again.. ;) what made you choose bnw over color? i mean, that moss on velvia or portra 160...?

For sure, with colour it’s very easy to get distracted by all the lush green and the beauty. I didn’t want these to be pretty “stock” type photos. With b&w you see a bit more of the deign, the form a little easier for me to get the feeling of the forest out.
