What did you compose at Waters Edge?

Just when I think I may have something suitable to share, Y'all raise the bar and I have to start all over again.

Well done everyone!

And a quick crop – I was dust-spotting when I discovered the naked shore limb signaling to the white sailboat.

As my first post of an image on this forum, and in celebration of making the first scan from my new Epson V750, here is Espada Aqueduct, Stream and Algae.

This is the creek under the Espada Aqueduct (ca. 1731), which carries the Espada Acequia to its mission compound from further upstream along the San Antonio River of which this creek is a tributary. It's an old image, made in 1993 on 4x5 FP4, using an 8-1/2" Ilex Paragon on a Calumet 45nx, 8 seconds at f/32.

To say that I'm tickled with the results from the Epson would be an understatement. I scanned in 16-bit grayscale at 2400 spi, and used a radius under 1 pixel for basic corrective sharpening. I was expecting much less.
