    A few from Yellowstone...

    I returned to NYC Tuesday from a week and a half in and around Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. AMAZING. This earth is truly amazing. I juggled a total of 7 cameras....
    among them 3 Holgas and a pinhole. I shot over 30 rolls of 120 (and will cost a paycheck or two to process), so while the first set is being readied at the lab, please enjoy some images from the camera I call Rosemary's Baby. These photos are me tentatively putting on my dusty, ne'er used "nature photographer" hat and hoping that years of reading "Outdoor Photographer" in NYC has done me some good.

    Re: A few from Yellowstone...

    Megan, there's something wrong with these. They're rectangular, and there's this weird, "color" stuff on them. It makes me feel very uncomfortable

    Beauties! See, that Colorado gathering all those years ago taught you something! ;)

    Always glad to see you back.

    These look wonderful, but I wish you had posted larger images. It's hard to make out any detail.

    30 rolls, eh? Wow, that will cost you a paycheck.

    Love that first one Megan. Good to see you posting. Can't wait to see some creative images from your trip. I'm betting those Holgas will do you proud.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I'm confused. These pics are all in focus and entirely sharp. Are you sure you're all right???

    Seriously, this looks like it was a great chance for you to step outside of your "box" and capture the world in a much different way than you're used to...

    Definitely! It was really a lot of fun to play at being Photographer instead of Serious Fine Artist. Expand my horizons, ar ar ar ar....

    Re: A few from Yellowstone...

    Hm, okay - I will res down the next batch slightly less, then. I had them at 100 DPI, 3.5 L/D and the short dimension (whatever it falls to...), JPG.
    What size do you recommend?
