Shooting

Going into the street photographing with the 4X5 was easier said than done. I thought because I have shot with this camera before and I was happy with my photos that I was going to have no problems with it. I was wrong.

When I shot landscapes with this camera, I had all the time in the world to check everything was ready to just take a picture. But when I started taking pictures of people I found that I didn't want to waste any of there time and was rushing every time I took a picture. This resulted in me fogging the film, over exposing it and sometimes not even putting the slides in the back of the camera. I think after wasting 4 bits of film it was finally a wake up call that I needed to slow down and take my time making sure that everything was closed and ready to take a picture.
