Mt. Rainier from 424th in Enumclaw, WA. Still waiting for the cows to show up for one of these shots…
Mt. Rainier looks tiny, but the 32mm lens is very much a wide-angle lens on the medium format cameras. Like most of my shots here on Substack, this is a full frame, no cropping.
Technical info: 32mm lens on Cambo WRS-5000 camera. The sky changed radically from the time when I headed out to the time I arrived, which was only about half an hour. The sky had quite a bit of blue in it when I headed to this spot; by the time I got there, it was a textured gray as you see above.
I used a 10mm fall to shift the viewport upward without losing correct perspective. (A camera without rise and fall has to tilt to look up or down.) Although the range of movement with rise and fall is not huge, it’s usually enough to give me the right mix of foreground and background for a given shot.
I used an LCC plate to take a ‘flat field’ to correct a dark upper edge and the usual weird colors of a wide field non-retrofocus lens. This is what it looked like:
