Shooting into the sun is one of those rules that are good to break. The coated tessar makes it easy with it's small number of elements. The older lenses have nice round apertures for this sort of thing too. Coated + Round aperture means late 40's and into the 1950's for a nice era of lenses.

Remarkable image, Peter!

Jason, lovely tonality. And I love the furry rock creature at left near the horizon.

Last year I made this image of a rock on a sand dune in Glamis, CA. I made one print but I've been meaning to come back to it. I also had an idea I wanted to try.

This is my test print, cleaned up a little in PS. I need to make a few prints and better refine my technique. This is an image on Acros 100, selectively toned with thiourea. I used rubber cement to mask off the rock and shadow. The only issue I had was ragged edges on the masking - I need to get a fine brush and do it really carefully and slowly. I am kinda thinking about trying out a two-step toning process, where I mask off just the stone, tone it a little, and then mask off the shadow as well, and then fully tone it, to get a different look in the shadow. Not sure if that'll work.

Here's the resultant scan of the 11.5 x 13.5 inch print:



Basically I wanted to get the sand to a tone that looked more or less like, well, sand. I thought it would be an interesting effect for this image in particular, though I am also now thinking about other uses.

I've been playing around with a pinhole camera.

I have been trying to photograph these roots the last couple trips to Amicalola Creek. The water was very low today so made this image.
