Beautiful expressive moment.  And what a treat to see some 4x5.

Thanks  > Did shoot quite a few 4X5 --  back in the 80's // The bulk of my work is all 120...

Fantastic image. Love the forest with the path leading into the fog.

Boy, you hit all my buttons with this one: Carmel, black and white, fog! I love it!

Very moody - like it!
Could it be that it needs a small clock wise rotation?

Almost makes me want to go back to 4 x 5. ("almost" is the operative word)

Thanks everyone --- 4x5 was necessary for many applications, in the early days. Tilts & swings & demands of the commercial world > and  the Zone system,  for one.

I think it's gorgeous but I get a peculiar feeling that everything's falling over to the right, which is unsettling. Wim, you mean anti-clockwise, surely.

I know the road was on a hill -- and the tree in the center nearly seems straight.  You do view this upside down ..so not sure 25 years ago just what I lined up my frame to ??   Will take a look again ...thanks

The bottom-right seems blocked up black. Or is that my monitor/calibration again?

You're up in Al Weber's neck of the woods. Are you familiar with him? He lives in Carmel and is one of the last of the greats in traditional photography...he has a lot of interesting things to say about the Zone system, but he's earned his way to pretty much say whatever he wants.

Then you walk among the giant redwoods....then again, not knowing your age, you may be one of them...either or, hats off to a finely tuned shot.

Thanks ;)  Yes, younger than Al -- but very influenced in my early years > with Brett .... I was in his last three books .

I never got the pleasure of meeting with Brett but did with David Vestal whom I also put up there with the living Gods of photography.

Yes David had a different eye ... good friend of Cole and family.   You never really got to know Brett (unless you were a pretty young girl :) )  -- He was always  friendly towards me at either his home or out shooting... A artist gentleman ..

Yes, I did. I mix those always up. Too much digital clocks for me nowadays...
