Another Midwestern landscape:
Last week in the Allegan Forest (properly called the Allegan State Game Area.) TMax 100 in D76 1+1 (I had forgotten how nice this combination can be...)
Last week in the Allegan Forest... (Updated 2/7/16 - slightly different crop.)

A little pull-over in the Allegan Forest. There is a small parking area carved into the woods, with a gated-off two track leading back to several large fields, one of which has a handful of crumbling foundation slabs from some sort of long gone building complex. Earlier this week on a snowy day a shaft of sunlight emerged, hitting just the road with direct light, while I stood a few yards off in the shadow. Well, thankfully I had an old twin lens reflex camera with me....
Driving near Stuyvesant, New York earlier this week we encountered a Nature Conservancy preserve. The boardwalk along Mill creek was a great break from driving. The freshwater tidal floodplain had an odd fey look to it.
A shaft of sunlight lands on a pine sapling. This was taken on Agfa APX 400 exposed at ISO 64 and pull processed in Rodinal to compress the tonal range. Pentax 6x7 and SMC Takumar 105mm f2.4 lens. Film was rated at ISO 64 assuming the the true sensitivity of APX 400 is more like ISO 250. Taken in Michigan's Allegan Forest.
Another photo of the late summer woods in extravagant sunlight.
This was taken on Agfa APX 100 exposed at ISO 25 and pull processed to compress the tonal range. Three stacked exposures. Pentax 6x7 and SMC67 55mm f4 ens. Taken in Michigan's Allegan Forest.
Having a great time stomping through the forest on these brilliant last days of summer...
