My little brother receives his high school diploma. This alone is enough to make the photo worth posting!

Speed Graphic 4×5, 127mm f/4.7, HP5+ @800.

There’s two flashes in this picture. The Metz 45 “Boomstick” on the camera, and the flash to the right provided courtesy the official photographer or an errant parent. Synchronized using a 1/8 or 1/15 exposure (I don’t remember which) and pure luck.

(As always, the post title gets you a large version.)
