Absolutely.
All were shot on Fuji Velvia 50. No filters at all (forgot to pack them). The reflective lake was shot with a 150 lens, Marble Canyon with a 210 Nikkor, and the Badlands with a 72mm (I think. Maybe 58mm)
The Marble Canyon image is unusual for its choice of time of day (I would say between 10:00AM and 11AM?) and type of lighting (slightly side say 45-60 degrees). In fact I am going to guess that you had high thin clouds with a very modest reduction in intensity. THere are virtually no blocked up shadows with this lighting which offers so much detail throughout. The sidelit trees add wonderful color dimension. Really great image.
I am very fond of my Nikkor 210 as it has rendered many of my favorites.
Keep up the good work.
Beautifull image...Quote:

This is very helpfull with all cameras and lenses, especially when you do raise, down and shift movements, to confirm that the lens is covering all the negative.Quote:

That will tell you if your lens illuminates the format. Try that with a petzval. It tells you nothing of the sharp coverage of the lens.Quote:

Nana, the seascape is almost "otherwordly" except that the foreground rocks "ground you" into reality. Great images both. Thanks for sharing. Portugal seems like an exquisite place to photograph.
I include that under the "quality" label...Quote:

Wonderful image!
No offense, but I'm having a really hard time making sense of what is happening in this picture. I think the blown highlights in the snowy part almost make it look like it belongs to another image or that it was edited in.

Thanks Vaughn, I chose to crop this particular section of the film for a surrealistic impact. For example, I wanted the saplings to look like giant trees, next to what appears to be a raging Mississippi in the mountains. The smooth “grainless” quality of Tmax-100 helped me out.Quote:
