    Umbagong cascade.

    First time out with my spot meter, had a great time hiking and cycling around, though felt like I struggled a bit with composition.

    Horseman L45, Schneider Symmar-S 135mm, F45, 12sec avg. metered with Minolta spotmeter F, Hoya Orange, Fomapan 400, Id-11 1+3 16mins, Epson v850.

    That's certainly a bucolic scene, though in most parts of the world I would be as tempted to pull my Tenkara rod as my tripod.

    Since you mention composition, I think this would a good subject to explore different aspect ratios and camera angles. One thing that might help would be to use a "composing mask" so that you could traipse across the scene without worrying about the sunk cost of having already set up your tripod. (My tripod head tends to want to automatically be chest-high when my knees are stiff.) This also strikes me as a scene where it would be nice to have a longer focal length lens in the bag--water and stone seems to lend itself to abstract compositions to my mind.

    Ah, thanks so much for the tips! I am looking at 240 and 300mm lenses at the moment, and you're right on the money with framing flexibility! I have an app that acts as a viewfinder for varying focal lengths lengths film formats... I just need to get it out of my pocket!!

    What do you think of cropping out the top part , just below the dark tree (bush) in the middle?

    My thought, exactly. The bottom 2/3 are wonderful.

    Great work, very nice the silvery impression of the wet stones, worth a silver gelatin print!
