Tree trunks on a boulder at McConnels Mill State Park in Western Pennsylvania in the US. I saw this along the trail leading to the old Mill and was fascinated by how it looked. I was hoping to get a nice shot with my Mamiya 645. This exceeds what I hoped to capture.

Visiting Vegas, we stayed at the home of some friends and I shot a few rolls of film while there.
After shooting mainly digital for the last two years, it was a refreshing change to shoot film again. With digital, I find I just shoot frame after frame (it's just pixels, right?) and cull out what I don't like afterwards. With film, I'm so much more conscious of how many frames I have left, and making every frame count.
This shoot was actually somewhat intended as an exercise of sorts. I left the DSLR packed, and took the two medium format bodies (waist level finders only), light meter, and a box of Fuji Provia 100.
This shoot consisted of four rolls of medium format film, and I'm really happy with almost every shot. I feel revitalized...
Scanned with an Epson V750P, and besides a little tweaking to remove a slight bluish color cast in the scanner, exactly as scanned.
