I didn't notice my solargraphy camera in this until I was printing it!

The lakes at Foothill Regional Park do not have very imaginative names.
Handheld at 1/8 second, I'm not that good: it's a little soft, but it was a beautiful evening.
Printed 31 January 2013 on 8x10 paper.

This place has special personal significance to me. I've never made a good photograph here, but was pleased with this one. 1/4 second exposure, I braced myself as well as I could. My first roll of FP4+ and so far I like it a lot! Printed 31 January 2013.

There are many places in Sonoma County where walnut trees grow "wild" like this. They turn bright yellow in autumn.

Okay, this might be just South of Sonoma County, but I'm from Sonoma County! Still a few more to print from this roll.

At Crane Creek Park. I worked hard at this print. My wife liked one that had more exposure and contrast, but I like the softer light look of this one. They both look nice in hand and I'm having fun printing.

Oak at Crane Creek Regional Park. This is a 5x7" straight print.
Besides the leak on the lower right, there is a strange blurriness which makes an interesting effect... the center of the print jumps out. Under the "tree arch" the print looks extremely sharp. Too many possibilities:
* it was the last frame, so maybe the film lost tension?
* Shot at 1/50, which is slower than I've tried with this camera?
* Sometimes this camera has smaller DOF than I expect? This was F11.
Who knows? But it looks sort of dreamy.

I walk by these oaks very often. Just on the other side is one of my favorite views in all of Sonoma County. This is a straight 5x7 print. I'm very new at this but this print came out better than I expected.
On a whim this roll was shot entirely "sunny 16" with no metering at all, and this one looked like it would be the most difficult to print so I did it first. Little did I know it was going to happen, but my old Weston meter has just stopped working, so now I'll be shooting this 120 folder "sunny 16" for a while longer whether I want to or not! I guess I'm glad for the practice and also some confidence because most of the frames came out just fine.
