Local forest (I)
Camera: Rollei 35
Lens: Tessar f/3.5 40 mm
Film: Fuji Acros II 100, rated @ ISO 100
Exposure: 1/30 sec and f/3.5, hand-held
Film developed and scanned by Foto Brell, Bonn
Edited under Adobe Lightroom
Photographically, the result was initially unsatisfactory, as the fine detail in the bark is missing. The camera was loaded with a film unsuitable for the scene and lighting conditions: too high in contrast and too low in sensitivity for the harsh backlight in the dark forest. Leaning against a tree allowed for an exposure of 1/30 second with the aperture wide open. However, the shape of the tree trunks against the illuminated background was brought out, which was what I was actually after.
