Now there is a place I would love to spend some with a camera.

No doubt, Eric. This and the Canyon Lake shot were some of my tests of the Arista EDU film. A bit too grainy for me (and I like grain). I don't think it's going to be the film choice for me. I am really happy with the results I got with the Tri-X metered at 320 in D-76 1+1. I don't think it's worth it to go cheaper to save $0.20 per negative.

Thanks, @dasBlute, it was an interesting day. Windy and the cloud formations were shifting rapidly. I was fussing because several great shots were obliterated by ridiculous power lines, and others by homes built too close to the mountain. Urban encroachment at its worst. But I found a decent spot.

Looks like a very arid place. Like the cactus. What filter did you use?

Thanks, @Svenedin! No filter. Don’t have any to fit the Mamiya lenses, but possibly one day.

Impressive clouds then considering no filter. They’d never come out like that in the U.K.!
