    Great job of keeping attention on the trees and snow and not letting highlights from the sky portions overcome this scene!

    John,

    Hope you don't mind a constructive comment and, perhaps, you know this already... Use of front tilt in scenes like this is problematic because the upper area of verticals (trees in this case) are generally rendered soft no matter what lens aperture is used. For scenes like this, I keep everything at zero and use aperture, choice of lens, and/or camera position to maximize DOF. If I can't get everything in sharp focus, I'll ensure my primary subject is sharp and let everything else fall where it may. Of course, this is just me and you're certainly free to shoot as you see fit.

    I welcome it all. I'm still prety new to large format and I am still learning. Thank you for some more knowledge.

    The more you shoot the more you learn. Consistency in getting out to photograph and perseverance in the process are honorable attributes. Some advice I would offer retrospectively from my experience. Make a cell phone image of the photograph you made for references you can see the tonalities insitu relative to your produced print. If you cell phone has a B&W conversion all the better if it is a B&W photograph. Take plenty of notes and only change one variable at a time as you make adjustments to your vision. Keeps things manageable and on a real learning curve. Change more than one variable and you may as well push a random number generator for meaningful results. Learn to read negatives (over and under exposed / over and under developed). Lastly just enjoy yourself in the field and be patient. Small successes tend to feed on themselves in a very positive way.
