I had the A16 back on the 500CM for these along with various CZ lenses.

The quality from 4x5 is astounding too be sure, but admittedly, it is not a "walking around" camera. Large format is a whole new realm. I have had an urge to get a Sinar P for many years now but doing so would mean also having to upgrade my enlarger from a Chromega 67 to something like a Beseler 45, which is not only very expensive but also takes up a lot more room.

Very nice work indeed, I like the range of different tonalities you have gotten from the same film stock.

Thanks! The old door (third from the bottom) is part of one of the old buildings on Fort Pickens, a fort where I live that was built in 1836. It is now a National Park. It played a key role in the Civil War and was even manned during WWII to protect our port from U-Boats. Partly due to age and partly due to the fact that was built by unskilled labor, no lines are actually "plumb", which adds to its charm.

I like that shot, such subjects are my favourite use for bw film, I am always hunting for old and decrepit buildings and machinery to shoot.

There are certainly situations where color is the most appropriate medium, but for graphic or emotional impact, black and white is unsurpassed. Think of the most iconic photographic images of the 20th century. How many were in black in white? Granted some were taken at a time when color was rare or not available. These images, and this is only a miniscule number of them, would have had nearly the impact had then been in color
