Hi, new here

Thought I'd post a picture I made at the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs a few weeks ago after a fresh snow.

I like this shot a lot. Love the contrast. Is this image cropped or 6x6 film?

helluva nice picture by which to introduce yourself. absolutely gorgeous.
great composition, contrast, colors, everything. i'm interested to hear the answer to voodoocat's question- medium format? cropped digital?

 

[drdan]

Sorry. Sony 717 digital with a Hoya circular polarizer and a tripod. Just used auto exposure. This was looking south in late afternoon on an unusually hazy day for here. A good bit of cropping to frame the picture and a little editing for contrast and color but the overall look is pretty realistic. The angle of the light and the haze made it a good bit "cooler" than most of the warm redrock pictures I get.

no need to be sorry! nicely done.

hi doc!
welcome to the forum too! heck of nice shot there! :thumbsup:

I was there 3 years ago and noticed that in nearly all my shots i had to crop out the commercial developments surrounding the garden. :roll:

It really is a cool place though, and I love your photo!
