Image Description: A black and white photograph of a mountain valley. There is a road traveling from the bottom left to the top right, disappearing around a mountain bend. A winding river follows alongside the road. The mountains are covered in evergreen trees. Above the treeline, the mountains are barren. The sky is cloudy.
I enjoy shooting with 35mm film. Unfortunately, my prior experiences with color films left me with a lukewarm taste in my mouth. On a recommendation, I tried some Kodak Ektar 100. Some of my shots were badly white balanced, but this came straight out of the camera. I can't believe it's not digital! I adore the colors and composition in this shot!
With the right exposure lengths, even the rush and pull of high tide can become a calm flow, appearing to pass serenely over a collection of rocks at the shore. This was a two second exposure, taken using a Canon 50mm lens locked down to f/22.
