Finally, I've got my old 5x7 Cambo monorail view camera working. The new bellows has arrived, the dark slides have been cleaned and loaded with Kodak's Portra colour film, and the Linhof tripod is now functioning as it should. Now I'm ready to re-shoot the rock forms near Kings Beach, Victor Harbor.

I'm ready to do the rock studies in the late afternoon, which I had lined up, but were too difficult to access carrying the 8x10 Cambo monorail. Hopefully I will be able to walk along the path to Kings Beach, and then double back under the cliffs by clambering over the rocks whilst carrying the gear. The 5x7 is much lighter.

Update
This afternoon was useless for photography The sun was high in the sky even though it was after 5pm, the temperature was high, the light was bright, the sun was still shining on the cliffs and the sticky flies were crawling around eyes . It would be a couple of hours before the cliffs were in open shadow. So it became a dog walk. The joys of landscape photography.

I'll have another go early tomorrow morning just after dawn.

Update 2
No such luck.The early morning sun was shining brightly on the rocks and there was no cloud cover to speak of. It promises to be a hot day--bright and sunny. So the photographic shoot will have to be around 7pm tonight.
