Thanks Andrew. While the color may bring out more detail in the terrain I prefer the black and white. They seem more expressive of the mood. But then again it may be just me. As I said I consider myself lucky for getting this shot.Quote:

My "line" of photography have changed a lot since I´m shooting LF, thanks God :)
Cheers
Thanks Andrew!Quote:

Thank ya, StoneNYC and Bruno!
Do you know the LSCR bikeway that leads to the Seymour Dam? This was shot right near the very beginning of that, near the ranger cabin.Quote:

Very nice! Loving 'em!Quote:

Right. I never go there because dogs are forbidden but it must be a nice bike to the dam.Quote:

Was on lower Seymour this morning taking trees and stumps, will develop this PM.

This one is great! The reflections form interesting shapes. I can see the normal water line too.
Thanks Marty. That's definitely what drew my attention.
Beautiful, love the "web" effectQuote:

Beautiful, Jim. The cracked mud is a bit blue for my tastes, but I know you like your images more on the blue side than I like mine. Both are real sweet.Quote:

Here are a couple more from Zion in an off the beaten place in the Kolob area. These are from a series of photos that I am working on about the rock walls in both Zion and Capitol Reef. Both were taken with my Ebony 8x10 using a Fuji 600C, the first on Velvia 100 (which I am learning not to use in red rock country) and the second is on Velvia 100F. They are very simple shots trying to show the colors and textures in these wonderful walls.
They're gorgeous, Jim. I do like the color palette in the second one a little more.
Those are pretty nice, Jim. I have a fascination with that exact subject matter. Very hard to handle. Looks like you are getting a pretty good push out of that 600. I struggle with a 450mm on a 5X7 and feel like I need longer. I'm always checking through a polarizer to see how it affects the stripes and texture in B&W, and trying green, though the last time in CDC I went without anything a few times.
Hope to see more of the series.

Not sure where to put this one... let's call it a landscape with camel!

Rocky Mountain National Park. Fuji 210mm
10 year expired Velvia 50. All things considered I think it turned out alright, though there's definitely a color shift. Not much in the way of shadow detail either, but still. Hard to beat for the price.
Is that 8x10 or 4x5?Quote:

The shot is really beautiful and I think you used the expired nature to your advantage here.
Thanks!
That was 4x5. Silly of me not to state so. Right you are on the original RVP. Because of the date I had to expose at ISO 16 for a usable exposure.
Here are a few more images from my trip to Zion last fall. All are shot on 4x5 Fuji Velvia 50 using a Shen Hao HZX-IIa and a 90mm Fujinon SWD f/5.6. I've been updating my blog (http://www.alanbrockimages.com/blog/) with daily recaps if anyone is interested in some behind the scenes info about how I got these and other images. Thanks for looking; C&C always welcome.
lovely work alan
That second one is stunning.
Alan,
That waterfall is absolutely amazing! The sharpness, control of composition and focus, and color are just top notch.
Karl
Very nice work Alan. The first is my favorite. Great lighting.
This trip was a good time to draw on my Astia stock.
