This young Maple sapling has taken root among some boulders and sand in the middle of a very narrow slot canyon created by violent flash floods. The sand is still wet from a flash flood that had gushed through the canyon only a few days prior, and yet the beautiful little Maple stands, defiantly displaying its coat of brilliant autumn leaves. It is amazing to me that this Maple can even exist in such adverse conditions, with no topsoil, no nutrients, and only loose sand and boulders to grow in, and yet there it is, defiant, beautiful, strong.
To make this image, I set my tripod up low to the ground, backed all the way into the opposite wall, and leaned in to see my ground glass under the hood. There are is about a foot or two of sand between the red sandstone slope in the foreground and my camera, so composing this scene was rather tricky. I made a single 8 second exposure at ƒ/32 on Fuji Velvia 100 using a CPL on my Schneider 90mm lens and some front rise on the Intrepid 4x5" view camera, made at 6pm as the light was fading fast. A few minutes later, I ran into Thomas Heaton in the same wash as I was finishing up with my next composition, and then Ben Horne a few minutes after that!

the old rum factory - the world could end and those girders would remain standing - how curious it is that we can build things that last forever and yet the one thing without which we cannot live is being destroyed at a rate that would suggest infinite reserves

Amanda and I were married at the Anderson Japanese Gardens on October 20th this year. Traditionally, the Gardens haven't been a great location for large format photography as they don't usually allow tripods. This year they instituted a pilot program and they allowed tripods in the afternoons on Wednesdays in October. I took advantage of that and brought out my LF gear the Wednesday after our wedding.

These were the most extreme weather conditions I used my 4x5 in. My son and I started hiking up to the Rainbow Falls, expecting no more than a few drops of rain, but once we climbed high enough, light rain turned into snow. A lot of snow, yet still melting when touching the ground. We reached a bridge over the mountains stream and here decided to turn back. But before that, I quickly unpacked my camera and set up this composition.
At one second of exposure, I expected the falling snow to completely disappear. Instead, it left a lot of faint, long streaks across the image, predominantly visible in shadow areas. No complaints though, I like it that way.
