This year I sold my beloved Pentax 67II medium format film camera and replaced it with a 22MP Canon 5D mkII for shooting landscapes. The only film camera that I still own is my Fotoman 6×12 panoramic camera.  I still find my large (>24″wide) fine-art prints to have more detail in them if they are shot with this camera and then scanned.  I often try to shoot my panoramic camera side-by-side with my other camera, but it does not often work out due to the conditions or the image format. This classic reflection image of Yosemite Falls was one of those days when I was not rushing trying to set up my camera in dynamic light so I could set up the second camera.  Also, it framed well as a vertical panorama.  Now I just need to find the right art buyer who needs a vertical pano in their large stairwell.

    This looks great. What a perfect reflection; I especially like how you can see some of the twigs collecting in the pond/lake at the bottom of the image.

    Dear Jon Comforth,

    Your work is wonderfull and very fresh. I loved you article on the sad state of stock photography. I worked for 30 years in the diamond district for a major alarm com..my boss had a saying that he ,,lived by.

    “Cheap is good….Free is better”: He was a multi-millionare.

    ps: If you could tell me the make of your boat, I would appreciate it.

    thanks.
