I’ve been on a good roll. I’ve posted a new image everyday for about a week now. I’ll try to keep that going.
I decided to mix it up a little today, no nudes. Instead an image from Savannah, Georgia. A part of a beautiful series of buildings, I wish I had more time to explore. I hope to be back someday.
In 1991 I wanted to test out a larger format then the 8×10 that I had been contact printing. So I picked up a Korona 8×20 Banquet Camera. The focusing bed on the Korona was not in great shape, so I pulled the back off the camera and placed it on a Raja 8×10 focusing bed.
The new camera did not fold after the modification but it was solid enough to use. I really didn’t want to spend much money on a format I wasn’t sure I was committed to. Four years later I had fallen head over heals in love with the format and picked up a Wisner 8×20 camera.
This was one of my early adventures out with the Korona/Raja 8×20 camera. There was something about the format that kept drawing me in.
