>>2945573Yes and it was totally awesome, I highly recommend if you get the chance.
>>2945630Hey man! Good to see your thread up, can't wait to see the rest of what you've taken from the last year. I'm glad you're getting cozy in Colorado.
I wouldn't necessarily say I'm tapering down on 4x5 but I guess you could say I had some plans to use smaller formats throughout the year. Like I knew the whole time that I wasn't planning on taking the 4x5 to Assiniboine. It's 18 miles one way into there and I was taking the trip with my girl, so I wanted it to be fun and not back-breaking. I guess it would seem like I get a lot more from the smaller formats just due to the nature of roll film, you get so many shots compared to sheets that you end up with more to share. 4x5 is always the main goal and I'll push it hard on the trip I'm taking for the next two weeks. I'm headed out east to finish up the fall before strapping on the snowshoes in the mountains.
I think the Mamiya 6 seems to be a pretty sharp camera. I feel like the scans have a bit more detail than the ones from my 645, not entirely sure if that's possible but it is a joy to use and it's so tiny.
I had a blast on that bike ride, crazy storm and all. Not too many fellas will ride a bike that far out onto the plains, glad you're another crazy guy that's up for that!
Here's another snap from the entrance to Cirque of the Towers in the Winds of Wyoming.
