It's B+W with a hint of color. Very nice and subtle Nate.

Yup, definitely Velvia :)
Re: Large Format Landscapes
Thank you for your kind comments. Choice of film was usually what was available to me from my local supplier and E100s and the sw version were, for a while, easier to find that Velvia. Also, I found I was losing too many images to light wind and the extra speed of ASA 100 did make a slight difference. The Maples are subtle and I recall working hard and fast to find the best composition. Frequently I walk away from a great situation because I can't get a composition that works for me.
In low light Velvia 50 is king. Velvia 100 shifts too far to magenta but in some instances it is desirable as it adds color saturation which is, let us say, evocative. The saturation and color shift can be modifed somewhat in PS. As my professor once said to me, "know they film".

Image from about noontime 11/26/13, between cold heavy rain showers. The white foreground is wind blown sea foam frozen by the 25 F temperature and piled up on the beach.

Nate, it looks great in that soft color palette. The striations in the sky work perfectly. Glad you got to visit.

The soft colors and repeating layers have so much harmony.

This is excellent! The use of line is what I enjoy most about it.
