i would love to apply for this but alas, my knowledge of large format cameras is sorely lacking. But perhaps one of you might have interest in it. And then hire me to be your assistant! Lol

I saw this, but tbh you can't be the AA. You can just be yourself. Trying to emulate someone else's style (even if they were a master), can be a useful tool for learning.
But eventually you have to find your own style .

It's meant to be the person who did his job, not necessarily emulate his style.

I found my style and I am confortble with that. I have spent years fine tuning my art in the style of "crap hobbyist photographer".

I think I am a master in my niche...

Doylem should go for this... They could import sheep to keep him interested... But he would have to wean himself off of proper country pubs...

I suddenly feel compelled to buy a large format camera. I'm a street photographer shooting 35mm and smaller, but hey, I could add the human element!

Saw this the other day. I wonder if @Laird_Knox knows about this. He has done some really amazing images with large format.
