Some from a recent trip to Dorset.
It was extremely cold and the only other people on this lovely beach were fellow photographers, I think from a camera club as they seemed to all know each other and I saw them all disappear later on in just two or three cars . I was the only person with a LF camera, my Toyo VX-125b. I was shooting Provia 100f.
The other photographers reminded me of Paparazzi, all in a line with HUGE white and black lenses, tripods and monopods clicking away constantly. As I used a Nikon 90mm f4.5 (28mm equivalent roughly) I was standing in front of them, and shot 3 shots.
Converted to BW in Photoshop:
This is the last one, in the top left you can see the members of the photo club have already disappeared. On their way past me as I waited for this particular light to arrive, one of them gave me a smirk that lasted so long I actually had to ask him if he wanted something. Well I would love to compare prints with that man. I suppose he thought I was an idiot for using such a silly old camera (which is in fact brand new), but I suspect prints form my 4x5" would look a little bit nicer than those from his enormous fancy DSLR. (Rant over...)

Excellent compositions and choice of lighting. Change the light and the picture will look totally different . Good the BW too, very rich tonality.
Congrats for the LF choice, I'm dreaming to try it out too, maybe one day... .
