Hay is for eating, straw is more for bedding and such.

Thanks, Tin Can, Michael R, Roger.
To be honest, I'm not completely certain whether this is hay or straw, but as the harvest in the Palouse region of Washington where that photo was taken is largely wheat, and straw is a by-product of wheat farming, I'm going with straw.
I need a farmer friend to go around with me to tell me what I'm looking at. The equipment can be especially puzzling to a city guy like me; "what the heck is THAT thing?" :-)
Two recent 4x5 carbon prints; 4x5 Kodak Professional Copy Film developed in PyrocatHD.

Thanks. They are test prints for an upcoming show.
Below is an 8x10 carbon using 8x10 Kodak Pro Copy Film. This is not a 'realistic' rendition of the scene (which had a 3 stop range). The film can be manipulated through exposure (for highlight placement) and through development for increased shadow information. It worked wonderfully here, but I have recently had some negatives that made too big of a jump into the highlights which did not work well with the images...lost the feeling of a continous tone film.

That's a beautiful image, Vaughn!
