Fast smooths out the bumps, but that morning it cost me a new tire (that road has now gifted me with two flat tires). I did get up there just in time for first light and it was very warm light, filtering through some haze on the eastern horizon.
I recently reorganized the galleries on my website and, having seen them anew, have been reworking and occasionally re-scanning some images. I rescanned this one this morning.
The film was the original Velvia 50. I sure miss that film. The newer stuff isn't bad, but the original did not have the color casts of the newer stuff. This presentation is pretty much how the chrome looks on the light table.

Superb Harley. Beautifully composed and thought out. I agree about the old V50.

So, here are a few images taken on a recent trip to the southwest. As you will notice this group of images is of Factory Butte near Hanksville, Utah. I have been stopping by this feature for years and generally have had little luck. This past winter I finally had some nice light and clouds. On two consecutive mornings, the light and clouds just kept on changing. So here are a few of the shots from the two mornings. All taken on an ebony 8x10 using Fuji Provia or Velvia.
Jim,
Factory Butte is a favorite due to the color/lighting contrast. Nice, all.
