4x5x365 – Image 168

by Leave a Comment

I attended the motorcycle street drag races in Boley, Oklahoma recently and grabbed a few pictures with my Toyo VX-125. This gal is related to my friend and drag racer Glen Nickleberry, who I have photographed many times.

I recently attended the street drag races held several times each year in Boley, Oklahoma. I took my Pentax 67, Pentax 645, and of course my Toyo VX-125. It was HOT – my truck said it was 100 degrees outside when I arrived. After grabbing a few pictures with my Pentax 645, I loaded up my Toyo VX-125 with my Nikkor-W 210mm F5.6 lens and asked people if I could take their picture. It turns out this lady was related to drag racer Glen Nickleberry, who I have photographed several times for Tombo Racing.

I got tired of wet scanning my negatives and decided to use the 4×5 holder that came with my Epson V750 scanner. Hence there are no film edges with these pictures.
