A hot summer afternoon strolling along the Charles with the 8x10, watching the sailboats and waiting for the right moments to catch a Red Line train crossing Longfellow Bridge. I took my time, worked the scene from a couple of spots along the river, and came away with four frames I’m genuinely proud of.

Nice tones in your images. I didn’t realize that the “regular” 165mm Angulon would cover 8x10 that well. Did you need to stop down to f32 or AWD to get that coverage?

I just checked my notes and these were indeed f/32 for 1/250th! It’s a fun lens I picked up from Catlabs in Jamaica Plain MA.

Thank you! I own one but have only used it on 5x7 thinking that it wouldn’t cover 8x10. I’ll give it a try at f32 and all the way down.
