5" by 4" portraiture and depth of field exercise evaluation

As part of the brief i took part in a workshop on depth of field using large format 5" by 4" camera's, there was a few issues during this part of the brief mainly they were out of my hands, and i had no control over certain aspects of the development process and the procuring of film were two of the issues i faced, the later coming only when the store ran out of large format film. Other than those few issues i think this part of the brief went the best for me and i am really happy with the outcomes. It was my first attempt with colour large format and the print process that accompanies this, and i must say it was difficult printing in complete darkness but strangely i enjoyed it. The colour aspect one a new one as i have never used any type of analog colour film but i would definitely consider it in the future. I have begun to fall in love with large format, after last years landscapes and new topographic's project and this project both being in large format it has well and truly sparked a love affair. You can definitely the difference between a large format hand made c-type and a digital c-type. The difference being immediately apparent, nothing comes close to the detail you can get from large format hand made c-type when its done right, though when you do make mistakes they are a lot more apparent.
