As part of a series of images I shot at sunset, this one was shot on medium format 6x6 film using a Mamiya twin lens camera. A twin lens camera uses two lenses on top of each other, one to view the potential image with and one to shoot the image onto the film. Because of this, you never see the exact frame you shot until its developed, as theres a difference between what the two lenses will see. Thats why single lens reflex (SLR) cameras were invented, to solve that problem. However, this twin lens camera is so light and easy to carry, it makes a great walk-around camera, even if you are not sure of your framing.

Because it was shot on medium format transparency, it has resolution for days. Scanned on a top of the line drum scanner, its blacks are crisp and its tonal range it wonderful. It is very difficult to capture the ball of the sun in the narrow rage of transparency film, but this film did great and the scan does not let down. This is available up to 8 foot by 8 foot size - and it is worth putting on your wall.  Because this is a perfectly square image, it will fit in many places where a rectangular image just wont work.
