He's not really "Large Format Guy". He's just some guy with Aspergers/Autism that posts these weird reddit posts like his recent large format one. I think his previous post was about opening some kind of photography-related store in a nearby mall where he would sell his work. Before that I remember a post where he outlined about $50,000 worth of gear he was going to rent for very very specific shots in a national park trip he was planning (ie. "I will use the 5d3 and a Canon 16-35mm v2 lens with a Lee 6-stop filter to take a picture of this mountain at 6am"). Then before that I think he first popped up selling his Christmas cards and we all made fun of his pictures because they were crazy bad.

Also, his reddit history reveals he loves scat porn. A lot. It's not really relevant to his photography, but it is a nice little cherry on his cake.

I have too much time and found his Facebook, it's basically just a post every other day asking for people to pray for whatever his new scheme is (post cards, calendars, large format everything, every trip he does to take photos, etc) like this:

There were good and bad things today. Good news is I got an iPhone 6s to replace the malfunctioning iPhone 5s. Bad news is the DSL at home stopped. I called AT&T and I was not happy. I’m thinking about changing the home ISP. Thank God for what’s right. Pray about the ISP issue.

God please guide me to the correct internet service provider :pray:

I post quite regularly in r/Analog and r/AnalogCommunity. They are mostly full of idiots but they are still somehow better than r/Photography. As long as you don't mind the same questions every two days because information permanence on Reddit is not a thing by design.

We should get him and that EyeOfEOS guy together.

I once had a guy comment on one of my photos and his stream was 'dedicated to the most beautiful woman in the world' and it just had photographs of his Hillary Duff posters.

I got a new follower on Flickr this week... He mostly posts typical weird Flickr stuff, candid photos of women's feet and photos of himself wearing women's shoes, but there's some pretty great stuff mixed in his feed:

Reddit Poop Guy is living his dreams!

I checked in on him out of pandemic boredom, and last month he bought an Intrepid 8x10. He says he'll be learning on Portra 160 5x7, so I assume he's using a reducing back to save money at first... except that Portra 160 is out of production on 5x7. Maybe he bought some dead stock from somewhere. I have no idea how this seemed like a good idea.

He has never shot a single frame of film before in his life.

He also still lives with his parents, having yet to find a steady day job.

This can only end well.

I tried to tell him to just start with 4x5 and see if it’s even for him, also that Portra isn’t readily available in 5x7. He never responded to me.


For what it’s worth Keith Canham does special order group orders for weird sizes so I’m sure you can get 5x7 Portra from that.
