Gemma and Mandy

Yesterday evening was Camera Club and me being me I decided to indulge my reawakened interest in shooting film by demonstrating portrait photography with a 5 x 4in view camera...

The exercise was more to show how the camera works rather than produce a great image, so lovely Gemma and Mandy sat on a chair with no background and rudimentary lighting. Time did not allow for too much in the way of setting up and adjusting the light or even to get the best pose... But even so these aren't too bad... particularly as I'm a newcomer to large format photography. I hope the members enjoyed the evening.
