Excellent, in these parts it's often yellow trillium that you find nestled amongst the tree roots (probably as a result of ants moving last year's seeds.)

Otherwise, I'm suspecting that DOF might have been a bugger here--anything special about your set-up?

Thanks, CreationBear. I had just gone into the yard, thinking to find a sign of Spring, perhaps to start a new thread with that title.

I don't recall whether or not I added any swing to the slight tilt; I don't think so. I believe the aperture was f/32, determined by using the halfway point in-between near and far positions on the bed. I probably rated the film at 400, due to the low contrast. I developed for N+1 1/2, then adding a half grade of contrast in the enlarger.

Wonderful, that's very helpful--I was definitely curious about how far you had to stop down.

I really like these Reinold

First time pushing Bergger Pancro 400 to ISO 1600 with Microphen. Turned out pretty well.

Shot with my Cambo SC2, Schneider Super Angulon 90mm f/8. This was before I had my wide angle bellows and fresnel, so feels like a small miracle any of it is in focus. I like the vibe of the scene anyway. Danby State forest, south of Ithaca. I like taking photos there.

Excellent, that's a pretty part of the world--my wife and I spent a summer at Cornell a few years back and I had a great time yomping about (though mostly with a flyrod in my hand.) Some great "blue highways" there as well--back toward Watkins Glenn and the back way into Skaneateles through the cornfields come to mind.

Thanks, I live a bit further north in Homer. This area has some of the prettiest rolling farmland I've ever seen.

Homer.

Very cool, I waded Factory Brook once but didn't string up a rod--unfortunately we managed to fetch up in Yankee-land during one of y'all's hottest summers on record. At any rate, definitely some unexpected vistas up there--7x17 country if you ask me.
