4x5 for 365 project (20/365)

I shot this one the same night I shot the Sarah Jane Bear shot.  I just liked the way the basket edge, it's shadow and the hardwood floor sort of made their own design of light and shadows.  It's back to the X-Ray film for tomorrow's project post. 

Camera: Calumet 45NX 4x5 large format monorail view camera. 

Lens: Fujinon-W 210mm F5.6 lens in a Copal B shutter.  

Film: Ilford HP5+ 400 ISO Negative Film, shot at 200 ISO. 

Exposure: 8 second exposure @ F22 based upon an original reading of 4 seconds and compensated for reciprocity and bellows extension.  

Development: Self Developed in Kodak Xtol 1+2 dilution in Paterson Universal Tank using the Taco Method. 13 minutes @ 20 degrees Celsius. Tap water stop bath. Ilford Rapid Fixer. Photo-Flo rinse.

Scanning: Negative scanned with Epson V600 in two scans and merged back together in PhotoShop since the V600 doesn't natively support 4x5 scans in one pass.
