Impressions Of Spring

Here is another 4x5 photograph. This one is wider for the same field of Fireweed and Icelandic Poppies. This was again taken under partial sunlight, sun was on the fringe of a cloud, and was somewhat of a disappointment when the films came back. The lighting was harsher on the film than I remembered in the field. So I applied a blur layer in the Darken Light mode to somewhat subdue the lighting. That step tended to remove some of the detail in the image, which is what I really was looking for, a more impressionistic feel of this field.

JPEG compression further killed some of the detail, so I included a Larger version, but both had to be saved at level 5 just get under the size limit. 4x5 makes BIG files.

Your Impressions of this photo, is much appreciated.
