Beautifully done, Ken. As always. ;-)

I was just thinking about a photo I took years ago and decided to pull it up again. This was during a time I couldn't shoot film as most all my gear was packed up to move. I am still sad I didn't get this image on film.
This was deep in a forest on the Florida panhandle. A felled tree somewhere in the forest opened up the canopy like a spotlight, and caused one tree to have its leaves turn color very early. As soon as I saw this tree way off in the woods as I was driving past with a friend, I had to stop and venture into the woods to make a photograph. Right place, right time.
Nikon D800E, 14-24mm f/2.8:
I could never wring a good b&w conversion from this file but maybe I'll give it another go.
Also I think this image loses its impact at such a small size. Oh well.

Hey y'all. Thanks. I miss my b/W photography. I found some time to revamp my photoshop process and I want to play with new photographs. . But PS is only on my desktop at home. Which I never am... I just use a chromebook and there isn't a full version available on chrome os.

Oh yea. Louis it has been awhile since I shot LF. Also, it's been a very long time since I shot some LF film. I was only shooting Wetplates for those last couple of years. Then there were some twists and turns along the path of life and I never made it back. I'd like too. I also liked shooting 35mm film and making toned lith prints from Pyro negs. That was quite fun!
We will see where the future takes me. Hell my "dslr" is antiquated at 13 years old. I still like her though. Dynamic range and a tad bit more iso and I'd be happy. But those things are still pricey. Oh wait. Someone offered me a 5D mark II awhile back for free. Were those the improvements they made?

I miss airshows like that... And very nice afternoon light.
Spent Sunday afternoon in the woods photographing what remains of winter as things thaw out. Shot 10 sheets and wished I brought more film along.
