Thank you, Roxanne.A. J. Perry January 19, 2008
Steve, I'm still tring to figure out how you've been able to achieve the kind of resolving power I see here from a 35mm film based product used in a Pentax Spotmatic....I had a hard time achieving this kind of resolution from a 4X5 Toyo Field when I was young enough to still go trekking.Regardless, this is an excellent capture and my kind of image. Good work. #5363468

Your comment is high praise indeed for me, A J. As I recall, this image was captured with a 28mm Asahi lens. I did blend the original scan with a Mr. Contrast version of the image. Perhaps the secret is my love of this most special place. :)Reynaldo D. Reyes January 19, 2008
