Description
A change of pace from the desert :-), This is one of my old 4 x 5 ektachromes that a collegue scanned rather poorly for me at a whopping 72 dpi so I am quite disappointed with the results, barely adequate - this image is memorable for me as it took more than an hour to take as there are approximately 10 people in this image. For one magical moment they all stepped behind something and vanished. At 16 x 20 little bits of peculiar colour can be seen through some bushes :-)
Camera was a 4 x 5 view, lense 135mm Astragon, exposure 1/4 sec at f32
Tommorrow it will be back to the desert :-), but, with a well advised change suggested by Egmont whom I thank enormously!

Wonderful photography and great perspective. A beautiful garden and thanking you for letting us view :) Cathy xooxox
I am most honoured by your comment Paul. I am also very much delighted in seeing here on RR an image captured through the lens of a 4x5 view camera. As you would know Paul, it changes our perspective of how we approach our subject. It is more like that of a painter setting up an easel and contemplating at length before even inserting a film holder to the back of the view camera and take an exposure. This deliberate contemplation can be seen here as you have carefully set up the tripod to allow the flow of the steps move the viewer towards the bridge, and the beautiful vermillion red bridge guide us to either side where a tree moves our eye back up to where the staircase begins. This movement creates a circle and we are ever deeper drawn into the image. Bravo!
Wow excellent shot!!!!!!Brilliant artwork my dear friend so beautiful scene I love it,wish was there not just me everybody love to be there!!!thanks for sharingVOTE
Fantastic one ! I love the red bridge !
How much nice it is without people, a little bit of the Orient in it.s wonderful red color, lots of work to take them out, but so much better, Nice, so nice. Eccellent V Lina
Superb, I would like to explore this garden, looks so interesting with that red bridge, thanks for sharing.
Very beautiful! It was so very nice of those people to step behind something for you wasnt it! :) Love the bridge...and the grass is so green! Lovely picture! Where is it at? VOTE!!! :)
simply beautiful. a place to stay a while. * vote * #:O)
the perfect shot can be a chore to capture with people around. Car shows is one of the hardest to avoid people. excellent capture Paul and a beautiful park. how about London bridge since you are in Arizona!!!
The colours in your lovely photograph are most brilliant. Cheers.
