Large format workshop

Today we had an introduction to using the large format 5X4 camera by Asa Johannesson http://www.asajohannesson.com/ who uses just large format for her work.

 I love the way the whole camera comes to pieces - it all becomes beautifully obvious how it works. Shot portraits on polaroid to experiment with changing the point of focus and DOF using tilt on the lens. There's something about the slowing down and the care and attention to each image that is very appealing.
