Nordegg Burn

This is another one from the recently processed batch of Ilford HP5 4" x 5" sheet film, developed in 510 Pyro.  Like the roadside bush, this one was also taken along the Forestry Trunk Road near Nordegg.  This time around I was south of the David Thompson Highway, right near the Nordegg Industrial Park.  This is an overview of the burned area near town, dating back to a fire about 15 years ago.  The fire never made it all the way to town, but it got really close.
This shot was taken on January 22nd 2023 at about 1:45 in the afternoon.  I used my Ebony view camera and a slightly long 200mm lens.  A #25 Red filter deepened the value of the sky and added some overall contrast.
