Whiskerino 4x5 style

david 4x5 for whiskerino

So we are in the final month of Whiskerino and the theme schedule has really ramped up. One from a few days ago was Mug Shots, and this is the photo I shot of David for his.

My description of the process as posted on Whiskerino


This is about as old school as I could ever hope to pull of in one night. Shot 4x5 on a Speed Graphic. I can't sync to strobes so we went even more old school by blacking the room and opening the shutter and popping a light, then covering the film again, adjusting, and doing another exposure.
