The american southwest - part 2

[V-Spec]

Derp.

So a few weeks ago I got back from the states after a 2 week trip with some friends, we did loads of stuff - had 2 jeeps, speedboat on lake powell, hired a mustang roush, shot machine guns - and of course I took my large format camera with me. I had a few locations I wanted to give a good go, but had to accommodate the wishes of others! I shot some B&W but they're still being processed so might have some more shortly..

My fave place was at 'Toroweap' or 'Tuweep' overlook, it's a 3 hour jeep trail that takes you right into the north rim of the grand canyon, but you get by far the best view from anywhere overlooking the grand canyon - it's an awe inspiring place.

All shot on Linhof technikardan 4x5S (Schneider/Rodenstock/Nikkor lenses) all film Velvia 50 4x5.

You could have got a bit closer to the edge

Last shot for me, lovely composition. View in the first two definitely looks worth the drive!

Excellent stuff, as to be expected with your photos Cant go wrong really with the Grand Canyon as a backdrop though. gorgeous scenery.

brilliant images, the second stands out to me with the receding storm and light falling on the cliffs.

 

[Cyclone]

Lovely pictures, and the last one would look good framed on a wall.

Awesome job dude. Number one and two stand out for me.

Lovely shots and fair play for having the patience for 5x4 film, I draw the line at 120, sheet film is a step too far!
