A wonderful photograph.

Have you considered it without the film edge, and with less blue ? I think it's even more beautiful that way :)

You need to look at a "real deal hanging on the wall 16x20 or larger silver halide photograph" made by a master photographer to appreciate L/F . 35mm will fall way short in the "wow" department. I also like looking at the old" Grossbild Technik" german large format magazines to see the stunning quality of big neg's -- that the difference.

You are not seeing them but a representation on a monitor.

This is the first picture I have ever seen of anything green in that part of the country! Very nice.
