Voltes a Orta / Square vaults - a photo on Flickriver

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

Fotografia feta amb la meva càmera HF/Sinar 717 de ultra gran format 7x17 polzades; objectiu Schneider Kreuznach Symmar Convertible f5.6 360/620mm (en posició 360mm); pel·licula de rajos X Agfa Structurix D4, revelada en Rodinal.

Es tracta d'una càmera de ultra gran format (ULF), de 7x17 polzades (el gran format "normal" acaba a les 8x10 polzades), o 18x43 cm. Aquesta és la mida del negatiu! L'acompanyen xassis tant per pel·licula com per plaques de vidre (un de cada, de moment). El fet de "no tenir nom" és que la estructura general, aixó com el frontal, son de la marca Sinar (models P i F2), mentre que la part posterior de fusta ha estat fabricada a ma i per encarrec per Filip Habart, de Praga. Per tant, suposo que he d'anomenar la càmera resultant com la HF/Sinar 717.

Horta de Sant Joan és probablement la vila més bonica de la Terra Alta, amb un preciós nucli medieval i unes impressionants vistes sobre els Ports de Tortosa i la muntanya de Santa Bàrbara. També s'anomena Orta.

Sense dubte, el lloc més bonic d'Horta és la Plaça Major, amb els seus porxos, adequadament irregulars.

Picasso hi va viure un temps, i sempre va dir que va tenir una gran influencia en la seva manera de pintar.

=====================

Picture taken with my 7x17 inches HF/Sinar 717 ULF camera; Schneider Kreuznach Symmar Convertible f5.6 360/620mm lens (in 360mm configuration); Agfa Structurix D4 industrial X-Ray film, developed in Rodinal.

This is a 7"x17" ultra large format (ULF) camera (the "normal" large format ends at 8x10 inches), or 18x43 cm. This is the size of the negative! It is accompanied by chassis for both film and glass plates (one of each, at the moment). The fact of "not having a name" is that the general structure, as well as the front standard, are from the Sinar cameras (models P and F2), while the wooden ULF back has been made by hand and to order by Filip Habart, from Prague. So I guess I have to call the resulting camera the HF/Sinar 717.

Horta de Sant Joan, in southern Catalonia, is a very beautiful medieval fortified town, with cramped, vaulted streets and squares, a gothic church and impressive views towards the mountains of Ports de Tortosa. It's also known as Orta.

The main square in Horta de Sant Joan is not large but very beautiful, presided by the church and the old town hall.

Picasso stayed here sometimes and developed his art portraying the place.
