Tres Aspens
In keeping with Preston's fall color theme, I thought I would post this.

It is from Rush Creek a few years back. I recently reworked the image, starting over from the scan. I was at Rush Creek with Lon, Preston and Youssef. I think I borrowed Youssef's Nikkor 300mm for this image. You can see the creek in the background down below.

A large version is provided.
Chamonix 4x5
Nikkor 300mm
Velvia 50

Very nice color and light. Good contrast with dark background helps the Aspens show off.

I think I recall the first rendition of this one. I like this version better. The color is great, and I like the dark background. I like the three trees!

I remember that day--it was very frosty, but beautiful. Lots of copal shutters firing that morning!

Lovely. The contrast between the trees and the dark background is startling. The inclusion of the stream is a lovely touch gives a nice sense of place.
