This is the view from the observation deck of the 101 building which is the tallest skyscraper in Asia.   This was a cha-cha shot with a TL-120 using Provia 100F pushed one stop.   I used a four foot separation, which is quite a bit less than the “1/30” rule would dictate.  While I don’t think this separation would produce satisfactory depth in 35mm or digital I feel that it works well for medium format.   Medium Format’s high level of detail provides plenty of depth cues and there’s none of the miniaturization effects that a 20 foot separation would have created.
