Boulder, Bald Rock National Park
Gelatin-silver photograph on Ilford MG FB photographic paper, image size 24.6cm X 19.5cm, from a 8x10 Tri-X negative exposed in a Tachihara 810HD field view camera fitted with a Fujinon-W 300mm f5.6 lens.
I know a photograph doesn't get any better even if you work very hard for it but this one hurt. First haul a 8x10 camera up to the top of Bald Rock by following the paint spots. Make sure the new white rubber tennis shoes don't slip on the really steep granite. Shoot the picture when the heart rate settles. Endure a slashing thunderstorm at the summit by lying under a rock ledge. Come down late just in time to meet the search party setting out to look for me. Sheesh, the things people do just for a photograph.
