Image 10 - First Utah Trip - Grosvenor Arch

This is another scan from the Utah photo album that I am slowly working on.  This shot was taken near the end of our first day of exploring, on the first trip down to southern Utah.  This is Grosvenor Arch, at the northern end of the Cottonwood Canyon Road, in Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument.  After we finished up shooting here we still had a long drive... a couple hours as I recall... to circle back to our base.  We were staying in the small town of Kanab.
This shot was taken on a sheet of Fuji Neopan Acros 100, rated at 64iso.  Development was in Rodinal 1:50 for 8:00 minutes.  I shot this with my Ebony view camera and a long 400mm telephoto lens.  A Red filter increased contrast and deepened the value of the sky.  The exposure was for 1/2 second at F18.0.  The photograph was taken on October 14th 2013, at about 6:00 in the evening.
