Rock Creek Campground Bridge

I had a change to capture this image in digital couple of years ago which I really liked, but I always wanted to revisit this and capture it in Large Format. On our most recent family camping trip to Rock Creek Lake, I just did that. One challenge I had was the sun was behind me, and it was casting an intense sunlight on the aspen tree to the right which was beyond the 5 stops, therefore it had to be developed at N-2. Overall I really like the results. It gave me a very workable negative to scan.

This is shot at Yosemite Last January, at the El Capitan Meadow. It was shot with the Chamonix 45n-1 4x5 camera with Nikon 150mm lens.

This past January, I finally was able to make it to Yosemite for snow photography.  

I was also able to obtain few shots using my Chamonix 45n-1 4x5 large format camera. For this particular shot, I used Rodenstock 90mm lens which is equivlent to 28mm lens n 35mm format. I shot with Fuji Velvia 50, which I was able to buy few boxes before they were discontinued. This shot, which has beautiful blue sky, was scanned with my Epson v750, and coverted to black and white in photoshop using Silver Efex 2.0. 

I must say that I really like the black and white version.
