What did you compose at Waters Edge?

OK. I have never posted many photos on the site because I am not a good scanner or Photoshop operator. I have been working on my scanning and Photoshop skills, so here is one I took in Yosemite years ago.

Film is Arista 400 Professional (I drove right to Freestyle, purchased a lot of it, and froze it when Ilford went into receivership) developed in Barry Thornton's version of Divided D-23. Camera was my Walker Titan SF 4x5. I don't remember the lens I used for this.

Here is another. Same camera, film, and developer. Don't remember the lens for this one either. Based on the subject, most likely a Nikkor M 300mm or Fujinon C 450mm.

That is a wonderful conversation there Maris.
I appreciate the action of the water, and the tones of the rock at lower left. good solid movement and a still moon hanging there. yea, nice.

Thanks stawastawa. I wanted the water rough which needed a "fast" 1/15th shutter speed in a low light situation. The lens was at f11 but front to back sharpness wasn't a problem: Scheimpflug to the rescue. View cameras are good like that.

Hi David,
Looks to me as though you're doing quite well on all fronts.
Both images are beautiful.
