Shoreline Boulders

Yet another image from the Monochrome Guild's Fall Photo Weekend this past October.  Weather conditions were milder in Jasper then they had been on previous trips.  Those previous visits typically had been later in the season... mostly in mid-November.  This time around we deliberately chose to go a little earlier in the season.  The upside was the days were longer and the temperatures were milder.  The down side was that there was very little fresh snow or forming ice.
This shot was taken down along the shore of Medicine Lake.  The lake drains in the fall when incoming water flow does not compete with outflow into the Maligne River.  It is a pretty spectacular place to visit in autumn.
This shot was taken with my Ebony 4x5 view camera and a long 300mm lens.  I used a dark red filter to increase contrast, and deepen the value of the reflected sky.  The film was Kodak Tri-X Pan 320 4" x 5", developed in PMK.
