It’s all done by mirrors with a lot of help with Adobe Bridge If you have Photoshop and open an image in Bridge you can get a lot of information which is imbedded in the photograph. For instance the sausage shot was taken at 1/640@5.6

Hi Mate
Bluebells too low to the ground for me. They are difficult to photograph, try getting your focus point on the nearest flower and use a small aperture to get the maximum depth of field which will help to get the others sharper or focus on the nearest one and use a large aperture(bigger opening) so that the ones behind are totally out. You have prompted me to have a go, we have some white ones, can you get white bluebells.
Apparently you can Hyacinthoides hispanica white, syn. Scilla campanulata

Well I have not been in my darkroom for years now, just sold my 6x6 gear and film processor
And totally agree with workflow back then, one of my heroes is still using kodak ir film even though it's not made anymore he has loads in his freezer !!!
The amount of dodging and burning that goes into his work is mind blowing and if you have any time in a darkroom you will understand why
I rarely use Photoshop to change any aspect of the image all my work is done through aperture and I find it gives me the results I like with less hassle
Don't get me wrong I like Photoshop too but I feel it has it's place slot of peole can overdo what's needed and the image seen at point of pressing the shutter is not what you get at the end of the process
Each to their own I find , as for taking the same shots of the same objects and monuments
All it takes is a little thought to be different and digital is great for this as you can see what you get and make a change accordingly till you get the result you want
I have a few ideas myself on a few places but still in the planning stages

A 10x8 is in a whole league of its own. I have used, for studio work a Linhoff mono rail in 5x4 format and on site the `Baby Linhoff` which was in 3 ½ x 21/2. In the darkroom we used DeVere enlargers in 5x4 format. My business partner at the time would not look at sub miniature cameras and thought they suited the `fashion` guys down to the ground. Take lots of shots and you are bound to get a good one eventually. At the time the studio worked in the field of industrial photography, which was either very small bits of kit or huge lumps of machinery. All this happened many years ago and it is not until recent times that I have taken an interest in photography again
