A week day late morning. Mamiya 7 with 65 mm lens, Rollei IR400 film, R09 N+2 development.
 
It was a 120 roll, Brian. I rarely crop, unless if I want to take a 35mm image and fit it to 1x1.25 format which is primarily for my website. Thought, I may start doing more 1x2 panoramic images like this one. However, this one was done out of necessity because GO had banned the use of tripods 8 months ago unless it was a special occasion that they'd advertise on their website. Having driven 40+ miles one way just to find that out with a Pelican case of MF equipment loaded with IR film and a tripod in my hands, I made this image at a distance with to much of the tarmac in the front section of the image - a horrible composition that required surgery. I was pleased with the placement of the architectural elements. It just needed to be cropped to bring those elements out.
