This was shot (many years ago) for a catalog of country-style apparels and decorative items. It was shot on location using an old medium-format Bronica that weighed nearly as much as a Volkswagen.
I recall the lenses being very good, but they were not multi-coated, so the slightest flair on the lens surface would translate directly into the final image. Great care had to be taken to shield the lenses from any direct sun light. Of course, overcast days (like the one pictured here) made shooting a lot less worrisome.
