Years of photography and experience with various systems and formats (digital and film) has landed me here: 6x17, analog photography. I have always loved panoramic formats and long lusted after the Hasselblad XPAN. Until one day, I pulled the trigger on a Fuji G617 6x17 medium (large?) format camera which has a fixed 105mm f/8 lens. Shooting it and seeing the images it produced was nothing short of awe-inspiring. I've since chanced into some various other 6x17 systems and the format is all I want to shoot. Perhaps this will change. Perhaps not. For now though, it's pure joy.
All of the following images were shot on film, scanned, and edited digitally.
