**This week with your MF camera, Apr 10-14 2023**

This weekly topic serves as a place for forum members to share recent work with our medium format cameras. It's OK for medium format owners to dazzle us with images made with other cameras, but the idea is to allow owners with similar cameras to compare notes, chops, and sensibilities.

To begin:

Add your contribution for the week by responding to this, the first message in this topic.
In order to make things easier for our cellphone users, please limit the number of images in one post to fewer than 10, and don't quote images in your replies that are extraneous to the points you're making.

If you especially want C&C (criticism/critique) or technique feedback, say so. It’s assumed one does want such feedback, but direct requests may garner a more studied analysis/response. If you don't want such feedback, say so, and others will respect your wishes.

If you feel you've been ignored, select your post, reply to it with a brief note to the effect of "Can I get some feedback?". Not getting feedback on a post isn't uncommon, so don't feel offended - no one is charged to ensure all posts get attention (we're not organized enough for that). If you want particular feedback (composition, exposure choice, etc.), saying so can be helpful for the potential respondents as to what your needs may be.

It is courteous and advisable that, should you post images for feedback, you also make comment on at least one other contribution. Respectful acknowledgment of everyone is the goal, and it’s requested that all participants assume some responsibility to that end

Nice one Jim, a seamless transition.

First image posting here for me so fingers crossed.....

I enjoyed this one a lot Michael. Have you posted colour before?

Beautiful.

edit: This was aimed at Chief and the Livermore panorama. I'm adding this edit as I initially just replied "Beautiful," and my post didn't seem to get associated with the image. Still learning the site and the software.

Hello again fellow MF posters.

Since my last-ever post at DPReview was an image of a gate locked by multiple padlocks, I'll let this image serve as my first-ever post here -

Thanks, Jim for starting us off. Let's hope this thread is the first of many more to come.

edit: the color of the preview image is way off on my screen. But the image opens with correct colors.
edit: fixed - site requires sRGB colorspace

Good Takeoff, Jim! To symbolize that statement the image below is a view from March ARB. The Inland Empire is a large logistics hub. The Air Base shares its runway with a lot of cargo planes. Image below taken with GFX100S, 32-64, and cropped to taste.

Came across a skunk cabbage in swamp. It can be quite the attractant of certain species. May it attract visitors to this new opening day location.

This is a handheld focus merge with Fujifilm focus bracketing: 10 frames, 10 steps and 0 interval. Crouching in wet swamp with arms in, an elbow on thigh holding breath etc…. Edited in Capture One and Affinity for focus merge.

This was shot about two years ago. An old H3D, 50-110.

I like the dreamy feel to out of focus background in this shot. Nicely done, Bashir.

Alan,Thank you for encouragement.

Good to see the weekly thread back

Reminds me of "Bliss, originally titled Bucolic Green Hills, is the default computer wallpaper of Microsoft's Windows XP operating system". Nice photograph.

Jim, I did one not too dissimilar to this about 17-18 years ago. I forget which station, but it was shot with a Pentax istDS. Not MF, but I’ll have to se if I can dig it up.

Hi Rob, Nice to hear from you here! Thanks for the kind comment.

Yes, I have posted colour, though it is of course less common than mono for me. Out of interest I had a look through the images that are on my flickr and there are pretty much exactly 10% in colour, and that feels about right for me generally too. And of course 'colour' for me is typically quite drab/desaturated/limited gamut (one or several of).
