"WOW! Now thats a big camera. By the way, how many megapixels is that thing?"
went inside hoping to do some interiors, idiots totally vandalized it, writing stuff all over the walls.

This negative is one of those that looked good coming out of the soup. The sun was being blocked at intervals and I got it at a point where it was slightly filtered, not direct. There's no HDR applied, but a fair amount of localized dodging and burning was used, like darkening the bottoms of the clouds, ala Jim kitchen the king of clouds, and maybe some contrast added to the bldg.. This negative is an easy printer, though, thanks to the soft but still directional light.
Like you, I look at a lot of the imagery here and feel humbled for the most part. This one is a case of the blind dog finding the bone I must say, there were a lot screwball mistakes on many of the negatives on that trip.

A lovely image, Nathan. Very Wyeth like.

Here is something really old embellished a bit by something new. A New England stone wall from about 1720 in a wet meadow that supports young winterberries. I was struck by the contrast. The stone wall age is roughly dated from town records of the farm.

That's pretty fantastic! I bet it would be a great print. Thanks for posting.
