two views of the same rock.

These rocks are from the lower right corner of a 4x5 image.
Thought I’d share the distortion – it’s a level river shore & all camera movements are neutral.
The rocks in the sun fell on zones 7 and 8. (A good example of Velvia-50 struggling above zone 7!)

Rock and Leaf. Ken Lockwood Gorge. Hunterdon County, New Jersey.
I used a Wista VX 4x5 "folder" camera with a Schneider 210 / 5.6 Apo Symmar lens. Kodak Technical Pan film developed in Kodak Technidol LC developer.
I thought this solitary rock with a single leaf just had a very simple, elegant beauty to it.

More praise from me Duane-It's a beautiful photograph. I love the sense of motion (even the rock seems alive) and it's great that the shape of the leaf roughly mimics the shape of the rock. Well seen and well done.
