Studio shot thirty years ago C33 Fuji 400 by Nokton48, on Flickr

My standard portrait setup from thirty years ago. A Chimera 4x6 foot soft box ninety degrees to the set, acting as a fill light. Main light is Chimera 3x4 foot soft box set at 45 degrees, one stop brighter than the fill. A reflective white 4x8 foot foam core panel set at 45 right. This is a handheld grab shot with my trusty Mamiya C33 with 105mm lens. Fuji 400 220 custom 8x10 machine print from my pro lab.

Muslin background is an OMNI and my preferred higher key muslin. I was the grand prize raffle winner at the Professional Photographers of Ohio trade show, and this background was my prize. Used it quite a bit. Usually I would find that the first exposure was often the best. Not always but often. I love the little curled finger, very fresh and spontaneous

Nice photo j.scooter. I like how the out of focus flowers in the back keep forcing my eyes to the very sharp flowers in front. The overall placement of all the flowers in nice as well. Thanks for sharing.

j.scooter, some nice work with the Warner! How do you like working with it? I had a Graflex Norita 66 (same camera, different name) back in the seventies. I've been kicking myself for decades for having sold that camera!

Wonderful seascape (or is it a large lake?). Despite the ominousness of the dark clouds and the dark water. along with the bird, makes for a moody calmness that would have me staring at it again and again.

I quite enjoy it, mine is the pretty chrome one 🙂 It gets a little finicky if it sits on the shelf too long or if I take it out in the cold for too long. But starts humming again after I run a dummy roll through it a few times. Would really like a specialist to go through it as I am sure that all it needs is a light CLA. Just having some trouble finding a specialist.

The 80 F2 has a retro look wide open and a bit of swirl, but starts behaving properly when stopped down a bit, then whoops my Rolleiflex 2.8 after f5.6. I also have the 40 f4 which is great fun, when mounted I think of it a Hassy SWC .

Thank you for taking the time to comment on my pic, much appreciated.
That is a large lake, none other than Lake Ontario.
