Here's one from last Septemebr which I've only recently got around to scanning, it's one of BD's favorite subjects: http://www.hemenway.com/NubbleIslandLighthouse.jpg If you're on dial-up you may want this one instead: http://www.hemenway.com/NubbleIslandLighthouse-small.jpg Ekatachrome 100, Schneider Symmar-s 360mm f6.8 Jim - http://www.hemenway.com Feli di Giorgio wrote: > Right now I have a Saunder/LPL 6700 with a color head, which i use to > print black/white.Very nice unit, but lately I've been having this > itch to shoot with my 4x5.
