Martin,
Thank you for your kind comment. The 12X20 negatives from that trip were misplaced for many years and I only recently located them, along with quite a number of 5X7 negatives made the same year at the the Great Sand Dunes. It is kind of odd looking at the work since it was lost to my memory for so long, but comforting how looking at it now brings back so many memories, not just of the photographs but also of other people and events related to that trip. I digitized the negatives earlier this year with very high resolution scans and am now planning to print a small portfolio of the work sometime next year.

Thank you both!
So when I was loading film that morning, I opened a "new" (old, taped up) box of HP5+ film. I immediately recognized the notch codes as being Portra 160NC. It was also not even in a bag...so I couldn't be sure of condition. I loaded a single sheet and shot this image. Obviously there is fogging, possibly from age or possibly from storage w/o a bag (perhaps lower sheets having less fogging). I'll have to shoot a few more sheets to see, but overall the results are interesting and I'm not likely to ever get a chance to shoot color 12x20 after the few sheets of Portra included with the sale of the camera.
Still with the 450mm, at f/22:
A bit of cropping and editing and it's pretty much okay:
Oh, that’s cool, don’t see 12x20 color very often. Just curious how did you get the sheet processed? Just curious because I have some 12x20 Portra, probably from the same run as yours.

I tray processed it. I have steel tanks I do 4x5 in (dip and dunk), so I warmed up the chemicals in them. Then I poured them in the 12x20 trays and developed. I'm sure I lost a couple degrees in the process but at this point I'm guessing it doesn't matter much .
