Yes, the scan creates the impression that there is a bit of vignetting. Otherwise, great image. Nice catch of the warmth of the early morning light.

This may sound strange, but I don't mind the dark corners. This is a beautiful image. I love everything about it; the early morning sun on the branches and grasses, as well as the sharpness through out. Just Splendid!

Thanks all. The vignetting isn't as noticeable on the transparency. However, I do have a bad habit of raising that front standard too far. FWIW, I love Outback Australia, and this type of scene is why.

Great picture, Robert. So I gather there is some vignetting on the trannie? I agree that the image still works very well. That tree is one of the most photographed trees in Australia - I know it well. The Devils Marbles would be in my top three photographic places in this whole massive country.

Another beautiful shot Robert. I am thinking of doing a little colour work with 5x4, what do you print your trannies on? There seems to be little choice over here for colour neg.
Regards,
Tony

Tony, all my stuff is printed on Fuji Crystal Archive using a Chromira printer (you need a high resolution drum scan for this). You are right, there are very few places where you can get an optical print any longer. In Australia, I imagine the choices are even more limited.

I really like this image. I like the calmness the image conveys. It really makes me wish I was there.

Here in the US, we have the Devil's Tower, Devil's Punchbowl, Devil's Garden, Devil's Postpile, and the Devil's playground. You have the Devil's Marbles. Sounds kind of personal.

Robert, oh how I remember those early mornings with the 4x5 and Velvia 50. Magical as is this stunning photograph! Excellent work.
