A couple images from the Appalachian Trail. First up are some stone stairs in the most arduous part of the climb up Blood Mountain:

And here's a pretty big prominence about a half mile from the true summit:

I do not understand what you photographed. I would not waste film
Great, thanks for your helpful comment...?
Lol, I'm sure Arkasha was pulling your leg. I like both photos just fine. I like that you went up a mountain with 8x10 even better!
Perhaps - but if not, I would like to say I am all for constructive feedback (in fact, I wish there was more here). But "I would not waste film" isn't constructive. Honestly these are certainly not in my top photographs! I am learning a new place - photographing here in the mountains is much different than the swamps of Florida. I think it took me a good 2-3 years to really get comfortable shooting in the wilds of Florida, so right now I'm floundering a bit. I've shot a lot of film in the past couple of weeks and very little of it was worth a damn.
Funny you should bring that up: I was trying to explain this to pro digital photographer friend of mine, but he didn't understand at all. It takes me a long time to really 'understand' a landscape to photograph it properly. I've been going back to the same places for twenty years. You do what you have to do, I understand EXACTLY what you mean. :)
