A tripod is hardly suitable for chasing light in a summer forest, using a 35mm film camera and a 200 mm telephoto lens. To avoid camera shake, high-speed film like Kodak TMax P3200 is mandatory. The pronounced grain did not keep me away from realizing the project.
Ein Waldspaziergang im November zeigt den Übergang in der Natur. Die gelben und orangefarbenen Blätter verschwinden langsam. Ich bin still auf den Waldwegen rund ums Haslimoos unterwegs.
A forest walk in November reveals the seasonal transition in nature. The yellow and orange leaves slowly disappear. I walk quietly along the forest paths around the Haslimoos.

We were strolling in Filopappou when I noticed this beautiful little road and I had to shoot it... Hope you like it!
Camera: Zeiss Ikon Super Ikonta III (531/16)

Using the Novar triplet lens with the aperture wide open (f/3.5) results in a distinct softening, which adds to the softening from the limited depth of field. Although I enjoy the fine detail of the stopped down Novars or Tessars, distinct sharpness is not essential for many photos and therefore is not a must for me. Lower sharpness and contrast make photos softer and more pictorial or painterly.
For comparison, see a similar photo taken with the same camera but with the lens stopped down (f/16): www.flickr.com/photos/165607631@N07/49877685132/in/datepo...

Another approach for producing a soft picture look, this time by using a pre-war Ikonta fitted with an uncoated triplet lens and adjusting the aperture rather wide open. The same scenery was captured previously using different cameras and films. For better comparison, the picture series were taken under quite similar light conditions (about the same daytime in sunny weather), but on different days.
Using the Novar triplet lens with the aperture quite open (f/5.6) results in a distinct softening, which adds to the softening from the limited depth of field. Note that the depth of field of the 10,5 cm lens for 6x9 format is even narrower than that of the 75 mm lens for the 6x6 format. Also, the Ilford HP5 helps, because this film is less contrasty than for example Kodak Tri-X. Possibly, some lens haze and camera shake may have increased the softening.
Although I enjoy the fine detail of the stopped down Novars or Tessars, distinct sharpness is not essential for many photos and therefore is not a must for me. Lower sharpness and contrast make photos softer and more pictorial or painterly. For some reason I like this dreamy look. Using a pin hole camera would be an alternative for producing a softer look and a similar fall-off in sharpness from the center to the boarders.
Die Morgensonne sucht sich einen Weg durch den Haslimoos-Wald und setzt Lichttupfer auf Stämme und Äste der verschneiten Bäume
The morning sun finds its way through the Haslimoos forest, casting splashes of light on the trunks and branches of the snow-covered trees..
A Combination of Spring and Autumn - Calm Nature Scene - Tayside Scotland - I took this shot earlier today - the carpet of autumn leaves and the fresh green of spring in the trees drew my eye - after I had taken this shot I just stood and listened - to the sound of nothing - you could hear a pin drop
One of the least visited places in my favorite botanical garden, the gazebo along the forest path at Wave Hill in the Bronx.

I'm fond of trees and the Sycamore is at the top of my list to photograph. They've always amazed me and many others and have done so for a very long time. I recently posted an interpretation of the Sycamore that was colorful and complex. The funny thing is, except for the fact that this image is B&W the two images are quite similar to me. What I see in this image is exactly how I see a Sycamore and how I wanted to portray it in all its natural wavy complex glory!
Mary, "ForestPath" see her comment below, got me thinking about the Sycamore and the encounters during forest hikes. I thank her for that and for encourging me to look for their meaning, I continue in that endeavor.
Use caution with the Light Box - complexity may be overwhelming. :)
Took a 25km bicycle/walk today on some forestpath outside of Karlstad, nature truly begins to awaken from the winter hibernation!

Due to the high contrast in the dark forest on a summy day, in the digital capture of this scene the highlights at the end of the forest track are completely blown-out: www.flickr.com/photos/165607631@N07/50171106667/in/datepo...
This analog version captured on Kodak Portra 400 shows some more details in the highlights, however, they are blurred as a result of the aperture wide open.
A stunning autumn forest filled with vibrant yellow, orange, and red leaves. The warm sunlight highlights the beauty of nature and the peaceful atmosphere of the season — a perfect example of fall’s golden charm.
In which I screwed up the Google directions to a funeral mass so bad that I ended up on the other side of Westchester County and then spent an hour following state roads that were constructed to confuse the invading army.
By the time I passed a friendly place and stopped in for additional directions, I realized I was already too late and took a walk. The suit didn't spoil the walk.
Fall is advancing towards winter and out forest paths are littered with reminders of the summer that was.
I recently visited family in Norfolk and while down there, I went for a walk just outside Cromer where I saw this scene. I didn't have my DSLR with me, but I managed to get this on my phone
