Hello all! Been awhile since I posted. Been working with MF for 40+ years. Started with Hasselblad 6X6 and RZ and Contax ... now shoot with Leica S(006) and Leica CS lenses.
Used the camera in all circumstances ... candids, portraits (environmental and studio), weddings, street, lifestyle ... but mostly for paying gigs very often with Profoto lighting.
My samples here are from a recent "fanciful portrait session" as part of a series using a globe as the light source. I then superimpose the cosmic or lunar aspect and assemble in PS.
Subject was Marion Hancock the daughter of a friend, doggie is our sassy little Pom: Nicholette Story Bear (AKA "Nicky").
All lighting was Profoto AIR units with various modifiers ... but in this case the important one was a globe modifier I made from a $20. light globe on Amazon and a Profoto mount.
Luna Image: Leica S(006) @ 1/750, CF Shutter, Leica CS70/2.5 @ f/22, Moon was shot with Sony A7R-IV with stablization set to 500mm and Leica/Minolta collaboration AF 500/8 Reflex, space background is stock photo.
Sola Image: Leica (006) @ 1/750, CF shutter, Leica CS120/2.5 @ 5.6, overhead sun is a stock image. CT fiter used on light inside globe.

Thank you. The young woman liked it.
Looks brilliant on a re visit. I never understood the colours until now. Unique expression and mood. Framing bang on.

Unfortunately I sold my CFV16 to make money for the CFV39 . Today , I regret that decision . Good used CFV16 backs are very very hard to find .
So here now an image shot with the ALPA STC + HR DIGARON 40mm + CFV39 . No AI used .
The location is Bregenz in the far west of Austria .
