Shooting 8x10 for the first time! | Exploring Abandoned Millstone Quarry | Large Format Photography

Yes, I have finally found the time and got everything ready to make my first 8x10 Zebra Dry Plates! In the last two weeks I had to make myself a lens board and most importantly I designed & printed a prototype 8x10 Zebra holder that can accept two glass Dry Plates at once. We are approaching the peak of the summer here in Slovenia with temperatures well above 30C but that didn't stop me from going out and doing some Large Format Landscape Photography. I start the video by packing all of my gear before getting on a hike that was supposed to take me to two medieval castles and an abandoned millstone quarry. At the end of the video I also discuss my recent findings when it comes to dry plate emulsion defects, develop the two plates and show you the results :)

🦓 Hand coated Zebra ISO 2 Glass Dry Plates in different sizes and Zebra Dual Plate holder are available in my Etsy store:
