Rocks and stones

Nice ironies of scale.

One of my favorite places on earth, beautifully photographed. I rafted the Gunny a couple of times years ago, totally different feel in the bottom of the canyon.

Very nice image! Would love to get there someday to see.

^^^ Thank you all!
I can only imagine how different it would be at the bottom of the canyon.

Island Rock
Redwood Creek
Redwood National Park, CA

Negative Date: Sept 19, 2012
Print Date: September 29, 2022...first printing

150mm lens, F22 at 15 to 30 seconds (Not sure which neg is which from my notes)
4x5 Tech Pan developed in D-76 1:1, 7 to 9 minutes
Carbon print

Since it is a 4x5 contact print, I suggest taking a look at it at that size, also.

PS...In the 70s a group of locals and then the world got together to expand Redwood National Park to save the tallest trees from dying due over-cutting on the slopes above them with the resulting erosion and gravel deposits in the creek. In the early 70s, this rock was under gravel up to where only two or three feet of the rock was showing. For scale, that log from the bank is about 2.5 feet in diameter. Part of the fun of exploring this place for a few decades is seeing the changes after the larger seasonal flows.

hmmm...not really plural rocks or stones - just rock...specifically looking down at a rock face from about three feet away, photographed last Sept. on Star Island, NH, and printed just yesterday. iPhone snap of the print...so not great - but good enough I think (L-57A, 5x7 FP4, 210 Sironar-S, PMK):



(looks like a tonal shift on the edges here - which I blame on my iPhone!)

Very interesting!
