Well done, Laura. Wonderful play of form and tones.

I'll be reprinting this one tonight -- adjusting the contrast a little (lower), to control a few of the highlights.

Vaughn, this is a real nice panorama. I like the composition, the tones, and the textures of the bark, the leaves, and the grasses. It all fits together. I can't tell that the highlights detract from it at all, or that they need to be tamed. I would love to see the full-sized print.

Finally getting some transparencies back from this summer. This is Mt. Rainier from the trail up to Third Burroughs Mountain. This was my first box of E100G and now I guess it's gone? This was also shot when I only had one lens, which wasn't nearly as wide as I would have liked!

Laura, that is a lovely image, and done in such a classic style. I'm around Lone Pine a few times a year. I visit and shoot eastern CA and DV often and have for a long time (see my site). I'm going to check out your Center for Photography site.

I see what you mean about the wide but compressed is nice too. It really emphasizes the lines (soil and mountain) and the textures in both. You're makin' me want to shoot color. :-)

Thanks, Al. I can get pretty picky, LOL! I have the UV lights warming up right now -- will get my first print out in a couple hours, so we'll see if I can make an improvement. I lost detail in the highlights in a couple small areas I am hoping to tame (such as the piece of wood on the bottom of the image (near the middle)!

Love the snowy texture, which you’ve captured so well.

As for the wider view you want, I’m here to help. :)

I’m looking north to the volcano’s south face, colored below w/ autumn reds & coniferous greens.

Laura and Vaughn, your work from the Alabama Hills is making me homesick. Many of my early East Side adventures were in the Mount Whitney area, so these images bring lots of fond memories.
