Lovely photo. This format does lend itself to certain types of scenes.

Yes, I'm finding myself looking for scenes that suit the wide format.

I was in the city again today looking for more potential 65:24 photos. I took these two looking in a south-easterly direction and then in a south-westerly direction from the Victoria Bridge:
Then I thought, "What happens if I stitch them together?"
This was the result. - OK, so it is quite a bit wider than 65:24:

Some really nice images with that aspect ratio! 
Just curious, is it a dimension that printers can work with if you try to get prints? Does it require a specialty print shop or is it something that most shops should be familiar with if you start saying "XPAN"?

Lovely ! Makes me feel Christmasy!
Just enquiring whether anyone here has an XPAN camera? I know one person who has and the images are fantastic. Strangely, he used the camera in an urban environment and not as I would expect in a landscape context but it was the first time I saw how images in that aspect ratio really do work as well as demonstrating the practical difference between film and digital, none of that wide open business, stopping down all the way. So if anyone does have that camera, I would love to see some posts here, this thread as created an itch. Apologies; back to the thread.

On Sunday evening, I was sitting on my brother's deck looking across the Brisbane River and Orleigh Park towards Brisbane City. As the sun set, the City was bathed in a silvery light, which I had never seen before.

Ouch! At that rate, maybe I'll just stick to a digital version, courtesy of Capture One Pro.
I *have* seen them a bit cheaper than that (plus Fuji made them as well) but of course, that's not to say cheap.
