Nice composition.

Thank you!

Happy to report that this looks just like it did when I was there.

An excellent rule-breaking composition, love it.

From a slightly different bag:

Wonderful textures.

Here's a tree at greater than 1:2 – the bark of a ponderosa pine.

I added more than a stop for compensation. This tiny-and-light lens makes macro work easier, though I don’t remember this shot being too difficult – the subject didn't move and was at a normal tripod height. Quite convenient.

What are these trees with the big burles? I love this photo.

Now there is a tree that has refused to die.

Couple dead, many alive, trees.

I just bought the ChmromoGraphica 5x7 dry plate holder and went down to the Marys River at 6 AM this morning with the Intrepid 5x7 to try it out. (I've had the Intrepid 5x7 for about 2 weeks now, and although I have NOT been pleased with the design and build of the 2018 8x10 Intrepid, this new 5x7 is great) The dark slides are stiff getting them in and out, but I expect that will improve with use.
This is a home made dry plate glass negative, using the Foma Photo Emulsion, rated at 1 ASA and exposure time doubled to hopefully account for reciprocity. This was a 3 minute exposure at f16, using the 210mm Schneider Symmar.
Plate processed in XF-37 diluted 1:4, for 2 minutes. It gave me good shadow detail without making the brighter tones unusable. I will continue to use FX-37 with the Foma plates to see how that goes. At the moment I think it looks very promising.

Nice! What Medusa might look like if she were a tree.

Did you hear the tree take any refreshing slurps?

I'm curious if the root system had once been subterranean, but now exposed due to bank-side erosion.
