Melting Moments

Uploaded: October 04, 2008

Description

My favorite Scottish beach. Maybe its the indigo mountain backdrop or the windblown desolate perfection of this most beautiful of places. I always feel I can just melt into the place and that photography is purely incidental. This is low tide at the mouth of a small peat stream that twice a day cuts a new path through the caramel soft sand on its way to salt water oblivion. The soft colors are at their most satisfying just before dawn.

Pentax 67II, 55-100 zoom, 0.6ND grad, f/22 at 1 sec, Velvia.

Nice work Ian, but don't really understand the 6x7 for working in colors. For me, I don't see the difference with a lighter regular camera. (In B&W, of course, it's a all different story. But I'm living in the same village than Marty Knapp ;) #7795131
