Fabulous
The aspect ration of the print really adds something - IMHO.

Thank you. I seem to be doing a bit of centering lately...always healthy, but risky in photography. When doing so in this format, the ends almost act like peripheral vision and I need to make sure that they support the middle. With the vertical, the danger lies in creating two image, a lower and an upper, that do not interact and support each other. As a friend wrote me today about the image, the wood debris in the river bed connect to the dead wood under the tree and to the tree itself. He is a Circle-of-Life sort of fellow and I am pleased that he drew a connection that I was trying to make visually. The idea of treating El Capitan as sky has been playing in my head and on film for decades.

Excellent Vaughn. El Cap makes a great sky.
This waterfall was located inside a privately run park somewhere down a very badly kept dirt road winding into the mountains just outside the national park. During the holidays the park was basically left unattended and I was the only visitor there that day. Too bad that the footpaths were very narrow and my options for compositions were rather limited. I am however, very happy with how the Fomapan 100 handled the dynamic range in this shot, I was looking at least at a 7-stop range if not more and I'm pretty happy with how the exposure came out.
The shot was made using Chamonix Alpinist X at 150mm. The film used was Foampan 100, home developed in Rodinal 1+25 dilution then scanned on a flatbed.

Nicely done, Beano. I like the bit of branches and foliage that blocks the top of the frame.

That is beautiful!

Could not have turned out better!
Thanks guys!
The horizontal ones are OK, the thick vertical one does bother me...
