Old home, Taos, NM

Copy of 8x10 contact print made with iPhone 11 max pro. Original image made with Deardorf 8x10 camera and Fuji 90mm lens.

This image is an example of the difference in posting on the digital Internet and seeing the original print. Although the texture tonal range in the foliage in the photograph looks sort of interesting, it is nothing when compared to viewing the actual print, which looks much lusher with great detail and a much wider range of tonality.

Apple iPhone 11 Pro
1/122s f/1.8 at 4.2mm iso50 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Dan,

The original image was taken in the last of September 1980, when all "serious" photography I was doing was with an 8x10 view camera in b&w. I was on my way to Colorado to shoot some aspens in fall color. Naturally, I had my trusty Nikon along to shoot slides in color. If you looked at this image before I posted the complete note, I suggest you look again and read the note about detail and tonality. Hint: The image here pales in comparison to the contact print.

Thanks for you interest and comment.

Take care.
