What did you compose at Waters Edge?

Yep. I've been to Chicago many times.

The wind is terrible even on a calm day. ;-)

This is the famous lake where there have been 5 or 6 documented Bigfoot sightings.. This is known as Lost Lake or Prather Lake which serves as drinking water for the town of Prather Indiana .. This lake is a difficult long hike which most ppl won't hazzard. I've camped here and I know first hand the erie feeling this place evokes. While I was there there happened to be what sounded like timed tree knocks and a sudden brisk smell of sulphur. Right now there is a fire trail that is open a few months a year that takes you back within a half mile of reaching the lake..
Maybe If your in my area and would like to venture down there just give me a shout.

Steve, interesting story and nice shot.

Thursday I spent all day "cruising for snaps" with my photographic mentor, and his mentor, a quite well-respected art photographer. It was quite fun and a great experience.
It was the middle of a hot, muggy day, but I grabbed a couple of shots despite less-than-ideal lighting:

Nikkor-M 300mm f/9, T-Max 100, Rodinal semi-stand:


Schneider APO 150mm f/5.6, T-Max 100, Rodinal semi-stand:

First 6x17 negative. I'm finding I prefer the one shot film offers vs the stitching of digital especially with anything to do with water.

Beautiful color in the water, great light as well.

That is exactly why I bought my 6x17, I hated trees even more though. With a bit of wind none of the branches would line up.
