No filters, normal development. I used HC-110 diluted from the concentrate 1:61, tray developed...development time was about 10 minutes, 68F. It is an older image, negative in 1986 and the print within a year of that.
The image on my screen also looks a just little light and contrasty compared to the print...but there is no detail in the black that is under the butt of the tree (as the tree fell, it fell across another log and the butt of the tree is actually suspended into the air.) The fallen redwood now has a very thick growth of trees and bushes on it. It is fun to see the changes that have happened in the 30 years I have photographed in this area.
I have always presented this image 7.5"x19", but I have printed it full-frame, 15x19, and it works that way also.

This one is a 4 x 10 of Multnomah Falls in Oregon. I was waiting on the lower lookout for several minutes for the throngs of people to move off the bridge up above with no luck. An older gentleman came up to me and asked if I was waiting for better light and I told him about the people on the bridge. He just nodded and walked off. About 5 minutes later, I see him up on the bridge tapping people on the shoulders and pointing to me and moving them off the bridge. In just a couple of minutes, he had cleared about 25 people off the bridge and behind the shrubs to the side. He then stepped out and waved to me to shoot. It was the craziest thing I have ever seen, but then again, you don't see too many people with an 8x10 camera anymore.
Randy, he was a very helpful gentleman, also very rare these days. Your photograph is beautiful, worth the wait and the courtesy of a stranger.
