Fun with the Hasselblad
I took these while wandering around downtown this weekend. Thought they were kind of fun so I decided to share them.
I'm considering including a few of these images (and possibly future medium format images) in my Roadside Distractions project but I'm not sure they'll fit in with the large format aspect...my purist side wants to keep it restricted to large format, but a few of these would fit in nicely. Thoughts?

I do like these images, but in terms of your series it seems that you are making a turn from where you started. The Beartooth shots feel much different than these ones, but it goes well with you parking lot box. I might not fully understand the project though.
You're right, the project has definitely evolved a bit. I think these images fit in conceptually, considering what I have in mind for this series, but having looked at them again today they almost feel too much like snapshots. I think they belong in a different series.
There is definitely a different aesthetic when using a large format camera, so I would stick to the view camera to keep it together more. But having snapshots might be good for a road themed project.
Your image with the flag is a refreshingly original shadow shot, the relationship between the shadow and the texture of the wall really interests me.
