"scanned" on lightbox with D800E and 60f/2.8 AF-S micro, four shots stitched in CS6. Minor corrections in post included removing cyan cast from water (from polarizer) and darkening top right corner slightly.

Larger 2000px version in my 5x4 flickr album.

Apologies: here's the shot again.

Gelatin-silver photograph on Freestyle Private Reserve VC FB photographic paper, image size 19.5cm X 24.6cm, from a 8x10 Fomapan 200 negative exposed in a Tachihara 810HD triple extension field view camera fitted with a Schneider Super Angulon 121mm f8 lens.

I really like the composition and play of light and shadows here. As much as I prefer color images, this works very well for me. Nice use of ultra WA lens on 8x10.

I agree with PDM; focal length, composition and lighting all come together very well. The effects of the WA, while not subtle, seem to have been thoughtfully used as part of the composition.

Thanks pdmoylan and Vaughn. I tried hard on this one: hide the sun behind the tree trunk, tweak exposure to balance the sun slick on the water and shadow detail on tree and grass, use an ultrawide lens to fill up an otherwise blank sky with tree branches. I guess it's another borderline visual cliche but it seems to work pretty nice.

From the Washington mountains to go with Austin's Oregon beach scenes…

In the far distance is the snowy peak of Mount Rainier.

It's best time to shoot rapids here in Finland so I looked up one nearby and came home with this.
