Large Format Landscapes

Thank you all!

Scott: how lucky! I'd love to be on the field again. It's been 3 weeks and I already feel antsy to go back

Ernst tinaja is in Big Bend. A very small and very pleasant hike. I'm a geologist, so it was limestone heaven for me. I have a few pictures of rocks and formations I'm quite happy with, present picture included :)

Love the bizarre cloud patterns, not sure that's how it was visibly. Also proves I need to be more aware of lens refraction of the sun!

Ha I am located near Houston. And yes it is a long ways away from my current location. :)

And Stone, interesting lens flare. I kinda like it. I wonder if the light had an effect on the clouds? They do seem "bizarre". I like the exposed area on the left surrounding the outcropping of trees.

It's even further away from New Orleans. A days drive for you, totally worth it. I would go between mid October to April though, summer is too darn hot

Thanks, I was freezing and losing feeling in my fingers and didn't have the time to change lenses, I had planned on shooting that with a long lens but I needed to just shoot and run to the car to not damage my fingers, now the snow is gone. Such is life!

Last year, the first time I shot a few 11x14 chromes. 11x14 Velvia 50 is beautiful (even 18 years after the expiration date).

Wow, 11x14 Velvia. Let me go mortgage my house so I can buy some :)

Nice image!

Wow, wonderful!

A shame RVP is no longer available in those sizes :-(
