Cut down? Land development or something?Autumn rainforest image from Vancouver Island. Sadly these trees have now been cut down.

Thanks Dave. The trees were cleared out for road development. I was very disappointed to see this part of the forest disappear. On a twenty minute drive from Duncan to Lake Cowichan I counted 22 logging trucks. Some of the trucks included double loads. I have been shooting these forest for eight years. Each year there is less forest to photograph. Often I can hear the saws going as I hike through the forest looking for compositions.Cut down? Land development or something?
It is a shame whatever the reason and that is why I gave up as a city and regional planner for decades. But you did well capturing a beautiful image of a place that is no longer the same. Very well done!!!
Don:I've been in Buffalo NY for the past couple days shooting urban decay as well as historical locations. This was shot inside the Colonel Ward Pumping Station. The huge pumps are what used to provide water to Buffalo.
I've been shooting the entire trip with a Fujifilm GFX 50s and 4-lenses; GF23, GF32-64, 64 and a 120.
Kirk--Literally my first files (several, stitched) with GFX. I'll have to get used to the extraordinary detail and expanded dynamic range.
I found that diffraction was not as much of a problem as I anticipated, and it was OK to use f22.
Any processing suggestions (or others) welcome as I get used to the larger sensor.

GFX, 63mm, X6.
Almost missed this one and what a shame it would have been. It is exquisite with the colors and varying textures. Great work!The Watchman, Zion National Park, Utah

A total icon shot that's been done a million times but I still had to take it since I hadn't before...

Keith, well seen and well done! I love the pastels and textures.@:thumbup:H3D11, 28mm.
Whoa, the sky is afire! Somehow I would not have thought of a long exposure at sunrise... Amazing what you guys teach me. Thanks!A two minute exposure at sunrise, Patagonia Chile.

This was a film capture, Hoseman 617, velvia 50 film using a five stop graduated neutral density filter. The colours are matched to the film, a bit of selective dodging.Whoa, the sky is afire! Somehow I would not have thought of a long exposure at sunrise... Amazing what you guys teach me. Thanks!
Wonderful work, Steven, thanks for the details! Wow, an ND filter with Velvia... I have much to learn... and it is exhilarating!This was a film capture, Hoseman 617, velvia 50 film using a five stop graduated neutral density filter. The colours are matched to the film, a bit of selective dodging.
